KCNQ1OT1 and Sepsis: Additionally, lnc‐KCNQ1OT1 levels were lower in sepsis deaths than in sepsis survivors (p < 0.001), and the receiver operating characteristic curve showed that lnc‐KCNQ1OT1 had an acceptable ability to predict 28‐day mortality (area under the curve: 0.780, 95% confidence interval: 0.678–0.882).
