The Relation Between Triglyceride- Glucose Index, Procalcitonin and Cardiac Affection in Septic Shock.
- Conditions
- Septic Shock
- Registration Number
- NCT06518083
- Lead Sponsor
- Assiut University
- Brief Summary
The study is carried out to demonstrate the relation between Triglyceride -glucose index and cardiac affection in the patients admitted to the ICU with septic shock.
- Detailed Description
Sepsis, a condition characterized by a dysregulated immune response to infection, is a prominent contributor to global mortality(1).
Insulin resistance (IR) is typified by reduced insulin sensitivity in peripheral tissues and is linked to various pathological conditions ( 2) The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, recognized as a surrogate marker of insulin resistance, has recently gained attention as a potential prognostic tool for various metabolic and cardiovascular diseases . ( 3) Preliminary investigations have revealed a correlation between metabolic disorders characterized by dysregulated lipid and glucose metabolism and the severity of sepsis. Notably, a high TyG index has been associated with increased in-hospital mortality in sepsis patients (4) studies only focused on the initial TyG value within the first 24 h of ICU admission and did not consider the dynamic changes in this marker over time. As insulin sensitivity in critically ill patients can change over time, (5) ,(6) It is possible that the TyG variability ratio (TyGVR) during hospital stay may be a better marker for adverse long-term prognosis and could be used for early risk stratification in critically ill patients, Procalcitonin (PCT) is produced during bacterial infections, sepsis, cardiogenic shock, major surgery, burns, multiple trauma, and after cardiac surgery( 7.8)
In this study we will discuss the relation between dynamic changes in both TyG index, procalcitonin and cardiac affection in the ICU patients admitted with septic shock.
