Genetic Polymorphisms and Cytokine Profile of Different Ethnicities in Septic Shock Patients, and their Association with Mortality

Objective The outcomes of sepsis and septic shock patients are heterogonous, with avariable response despite standardized care. The aim of this study was toexplore the racial differences in septic shock outcomes, and theirassociation with genetic polymorphisms and cytokine levels in an Asianpopulation.
