The Effects of Different Lipid Emulsions on the Adipokines in Critically Ill Patients With Sepsis

Completed
Conditions
Sepsis
Interventions
Other: Soybean-based intravenous fat emulsions
Other: Olive oil-based intravenous fat emulsions
Registration Number
NCT04711564
Lead Sponsor
Karadeniz Technical University
Brief Summary

Intravenous lipid emulsions contain a number of biologically active ingredients, but the most important are fatty acids. Different fatty acids can affect a number of different physiological processes in different ways in critically ill patients. Adipose tissue can play an important role in metabolic changes of critical illnesses and in adaptation to stress through structural as well as functional changes Although it is known that serum adipokine and cytokine response changes in critical sepsis patients, the factors affecting these changes and the metabolic consequences of these changes are not well defined. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of intravenous lipid emulsions on serum adipokine and cytokine levels in patients with sepsis. Secondly, this is to determine the adipokine and cytokine kinetics in the sepsis process and their relationship with mortality in patients with sepsis.
