Gut bacteria and organ damage in sepsis
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This study looks at how bacteria in your gut and other signs in your body affect liver and kidney damage in people with sepsis. It also compares findings to healthy volunteers to see what is different.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You are either a patient with sepsis in the ICU, or a healthy volunteer without any chronic diseases.
- You do not have long-term liver, kidney, or bowel disease.
- You are not currently on chemotherapy or radiation for cancer.
- If you are a healthy volunteer, you have not taken antibiotics, probiotics, or had an infection in the past month.

This study follows people with chronic liver disease who develop a serious infection called sepsis. The goal is to learn more about how to better treat or manage this condition.
This study looks at how gut bacteria affect severe infections in the ICU. It tests whether the microbiome can be a source of sepsis and a target for treatment. If you are critically ill or a long-term sepsis survivor, you might help find new ways to prevent infections.
This study looks at how the immune system changes in people with sepsis (a severe response to infection that can cause organ failure). It aims to understand immune dysfunction to help improve treatments.
This study looks at how the immune system reacts to sepsis (a severe infection that causes organs to fail) and whether there are lasting effects on health. It may help researchers understand why some people recover well and others don’t.
This study uses special blood testing to learn what is happening in the immune system during sepsis in children and how it may relate to organ injury. Your results may help doctors recognize and treat sepsis earlier and more accurately.
This trial studies people with and without sepsis in the ICU to understand why some get very sick from infections. It aims to find better ways to predict who will have complications and guide treatment.
