Review Meta Analysis[The effect of ω-3 fatty acid supplementation in parenteral nutrition on the outcome of patients with sepsis: a systematic review and meta-analysis].
To determine whether the supplementation of ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids in parenteral nutrition (PN) confers treatment benefits to outcomes of septic patients. ⋯ Meta-analysis results demonstrated that PN supplemented with ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids was beneficial in improving the outcomes of patients with sepsis. However, this conclusion must be interpreted with caution due to the low quality of the enrolled trials.

Randomized Controlled Trial[Impact of target energy intake on outcomes in septic patients : a prospective randomized controlled trial].
To observe the impact of the diverse caloric energy intake on the outcomes and occurrence rate of complications in septic patients. ⋯ Both higher and lower caloric energy intake may be associated with an adverse impact, but appropriate caloric intake would improve the outcome and reduce the complication rate in septic patients.

[The clinical analysis of 419 severe sepsis patients in intensive care unit].
To investigate the epidemiological characteristics and mortality risk factors of severe sepsis patients admitted into intensive care unit (ICU). ⋯ Severe sepsis is a common cause of ICU admission. Patients with risk factors for high mortality should be carefully monitored, and aggressive treatment should be administered.

Randomized Controlled Trial[Effect of Sini decoction on function of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis in patients with sepsis].
To investigate the effects of Sini decoction on function of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis in patients with sepsis. ⋯ Sini decoction could elevate cortisol while lower ACTH at the early stage of sepsis. Sini decoction could also effectively improve symptoms and hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis function in septic patients without affecting death rate.
