Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Delirium occurs in up to 80% of intensive care patients and is associated with poor outcomes. The biological cause of delirium remains elusive. OBJECTIVES: To determine if delirium and recovery are associated with serum levels of interleukins and apolipoprotein E over time and with apolipoprotein E genotype. METHODS: The sample consisted of 77 patients with no previous cognitive deficits who required...
