More precisely, sepsis triggers a multifaceted response characterized by a simultaneous manifestation of proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory elements that disrupt mechanisms intended to maintain homeostasis. Initially, an overwhelming hyperinflammatory reaction ensues, resulting in tissue damage and organ dysfunction.展开更多

It was postulated that it may bear some relations to abnormalities of immune function. In this article. 28 cases of obstructive jaundice were selected to investigate alternation of monocyte immune function with the purpose of exploring mechanism of high susceptibility to infection from the perspective of immunology. The results showed that interleukin 1 production by monocytes significantly decreased and prostaglandin E2 increased, HLA-DR expression of monocytes was markably depressed. HLA-DR expression of monocytes was further decreased with recovery slower than non-jaundiced patients after operation. All this may be responsible for high susceptibility to infection in the process of treatment of obstructive jaundice .展开更多
