Background: Age and comorbidity significantly impact the prognosis of septic patients and inform treatment decisions. To provide clinicians with effective tools for identifying high-risk patients, this study assesses the predictive value of the age-adjusted Charlson Comorbidity Index (ACCI) and its simplified version, the quick ACCI (qACCI), for mortality in septic patients. Methods: This retrospective study included septic patients from four Chinese medical centers.

Methods: Patients with sepsis-associated NTIS admitted to Xinhua Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, between March 2013 and April 2017 were included in the study.
Introduction: In critically ill patients, the stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) was significantly associated with mortality. However, the relationship between SHR and mortality in septic patients is still unclear.In this study, patients with sepsis from two Chinese academic centers were identified and divided into quartiles based on SHR levels.

However, the relationship between NOAF and SIC score has not been clearly defined. This study aims to investigate the association between SIC score and NOAF, as well as their effect on mortality in sepsis.

Background: Nonthyroidal illness syndrome (NTIS) is a common endocrine dysfunction predicting unfavorable outcomes in critical illness. The objective of the study is to evaluate the association between different NTIS subtypes with outcomes in septic patients.
Methods: Septic patients in two Chinese academic centers from October 2012 and October 2022 are enrolled in analysis.
