ACSL4 levels were positively correlated with SOFA (Rho = 0.354, p-value < 0.0001), APACHE II (Rho = 0.317, p-value < 0.0001), and septic shock (Rho = 0.274, p-value = 0.003) scores but negatively correlated with the GCS score (Rho = -0.218, p-value = 0.018). The gene discussed is ACSL4; the disease is septic shock.
