To evaluate the agreement between cardiac output (CO) measurements obtained by a new dye dilution technique using pulse dye densitometry (PDD) and thermodilution (TD) and the direct Fick method (F).

Cardiac output measurement by pulse dye densitometry: a comparison with the Fick's principle and thermodilution method.

To determine the time course of histocompatibility leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DR expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells and their relationship to markers of inflammation, organ function, and outcome during severe sepsis.

Coincidence of pro- and anti-inflammatory responses in the early phase of severe sepsis: Longitudinal study of mononuclear histocompatibility leukocyte antigen-DR expression, procalcitonin, C-reactive protein, and changes in T-cell subsets in septic and postoperative patients.

Binding of bacterial cell wall components to CD14 and co-receptors on myeloid cells results in cellular activation and production of proinflammatory mediators. A recombinant anti-CD14 monoclonal antibody (IC14) has been shown to decrease lipopolysaccharide-induced responses in animal and human models of endotoxemia. This study was performed to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and clinical pharmacology of IC14 in patients with severe sepsis.

CD14 receptor occupancy in severe sepsis: results of a phase I clinical trial with a recombinant chimeric CD14 monoclonal antibody (IC14).

To determine perioperative changes in circulating (BVI) and central blood volume (CBVI) by a new dye dilution technique using pulse dye densitometry.

Perioperative monitoring of circulating and central blood volume in cardiac surgery by pulse dye densitometry.

To prospectively evaluate the performance of procalcitonin (PCT), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and C-reactive protein (CRP) as percentage of baseline (POB) in predicting hospital survival, we studied 64 consecutive, postoperative patients with severe sepsis.

Predictive value of procalcitonin, interleukin-6, and C-reactive protein for survival in postoperative patients with severe sepsis.

To prospectively evaluate the performance of Lipopolysaccharide-Binding Protein (LBP) in prediction of hospital mortality and its correlation to C-reactive Protein (CRP), we studied sixty consecutive, postoperative patients with sepsis admitted to the university hospital intensive care unit.
