In sepsis patients, VCAM-1 mRNA fold change correlated with the SOFA score (Spearman’s r = 0.231, p = 0.039), lactate level (r = 0.297, p = 0.0074), HDL-C level (r = –0.370, p = 0.0007), and inflammatory markers (C-reactive protein level: r = 0.441, p <0.0001; white blood cell: r = 0.353, p = 0.0013). Here, VCAM1 is linked to Sepsis.
