Abstract
Background: Amidst the complexities of sepsis-induced inflammatory responses and myocardial injury, this study investigates the therapeutic potential of vitamin C in mitigating sepsis complications. The findings offer crucial insights into the prospective use of vitamin C, shaping future strategies for enhanced patient care.
Objective: To investigate the impact of vitamin C on the inflammatory response and myocardial damage in individuals with sepsis.
Methods: A total of 83 sepsis patients treated in our hospital from January 2021 to January 2023 were randomly divided into a control group (n=41, receiving basic treatment) and a study group (n=42, receiving vitamin C in addition to basic treatment). To evaluate the impact of treatment, we compared organ dysfunction, inflammatory response index, myocardial injury index, and morbidity/mortality rates before and after the intervention in both groups. It allowed for a comprehensive analysis of the treatment's effects on these key parameters.
Results: After therapy, the study group exhibited lower SOFA ratings compared to the control group (P < .05). Levels of Hypersensitive C-reactive Protein (hs-CRP), Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF), High Mobility Group Protein B1 (HMGB1), Creatine Kinase Isoenzyme (CK-MB), Troponin I (cTnI), and B-type brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) were significantly lower in the study group than in the control group after treatment (P < .05). The study group also demonstrated a lower morbidity and mortality rate (9.52%) compared to the control group (29.27%) (P < .05).
Conclusions: Vitamin C supplementation holds significant therapeutic value, contributing to reduced inflammatory response, myocardial injury, morbidity, and mortality rates in sepsis patients. This intervention enhances clinical efficacy, fostering disease regression.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
