The median concentration of ADM-Gly was significantly elevated in patients with sepsis (121.5 pg/mL [IQR: 44.4–284.1 pg/mL]; p < 0.0001) and septic shock (419.3 pg/mL [IQR: 148.8–1106 pg/mL]; p < 0.0001), when compared to the self-reported healthy individuals (17.5 pg/mL [IQR: 11.5–27.2 pg/mL]) (Fig. 3A). Here, ADM is linked to Sepsis.
