Evaluation of TNF-α genetic polymorphisms as predictors for sepsis susceptibility and progression

Abstract Background The goal of the study was to evaluate a potential role for tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) genetic variability as biomarker in sepsis. In particular, we aimed to determine if single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of TNF-α gene are associated with sepsis in terms of risk, sev...
