Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Metabolic Resuscitation Using Ascorbic Acid, Thiamine, and Glucocorticoids in Sepsis.; ORANGES

Article Description
Background: Multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) is the principal cause of death in patients with sepsis. Recent work supports the notion that parenteral vitamin C (VitC) is protective in sepsis through pleiotropic mechanisms. Whether suboptimal levels of circulating VitC increase susceptibility to sepsis-induced MODS is unknown. Materials and Methods: Unlike mice, humans lack the ability to synthesize VitC because of loss of L-gulono-γ-lactone oxidase (Gulo), the final enzyme in the biosynthesis of VitC. To examine whether physiological levels of VitC are required for defense against a catastrophic infection, we induced sepsis in VitC sufficient and VitC deficient Gulo-/- mice by intraperitoneal infusion of a fecal stem solution (FIP). Some VitC deficient Gulo-/- mice received a parenteral infusion of ascorbic acid (AscA, 200 mg/kg) 30 minutes after induction of FIP. We used molecular, histological, and biochemical analyses to assess for MODS as well as abnormalities in the coagulation system and circulating blood cells. Results: FIP produced injury to lungs, kidneys and liver (MODS) in VitC deficient Gulo-/- mice. MODS was not evident in FIP-exposed VitC sufficient Gulo-/- mice and attenuated in VitC deficient Gulo-/- mice infused with AscA. Septic VitC deficient Gulo-/- mice developed significant abnormalities in the coagulation system and circulating blood cells. These were attenuated by VitC sufficiency/infusion in septic Gulo-/- mice. Conclusions: VitC deficient Gulo-/- mice were more susceptible to sepsis-induced MODS. VitC sufficiency or parenteral infusion of VitC, following induction of sepsis, normalized physiological functions that attenuated the development of MODS in sepsis.
