Sex-specific differences in cardiac function, inflammation and injury during early polymicrobial sepsis

BACKGROUND: Sex differences in sepsis are underexplored and incompletely understood. Cardiac function in early sepsis is pivotal in determining survival; hyperdynamic left ventricular ejection fraction is associated with higher mortality. Female sex may be cardioprotective, but variable experimental...
