Aging-associated augmentation of gut microbiome virulence capability drives sepsis severity
2023-01-13
Abstract excerpt
Prior research has focused on host factors as mediators of exaggerated sepsis-associated morbidity and mortality in older adults. This focus on the host, however, has failed to identify therapies that improve sepsis outcomes in the elderly. We hypothesized that the increased susceptibility of the aging population to sepsis is not only a function of the host, but also reflects longevity-associated changes in the vi...
