Hence, the present study aims to test the hypothesis of an association between clinically significant REL genetic variants and severity of septic shock in a large cohort of well-defined intensive care unit (ICU) patients. In order to study the link between REL SNPs and septic shock severity, we compared acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and MODS frequencies, and VFD value between patients carrying REL rs842647*G and rs13031237*T minor alleles and in those homozygous for the major alleles. This study was the first to investigate the importance of two polymorphisms within REL gene in a large European population of septic shock patients. ./cache/cord-002011-u6dfp6gf.txt ./txt/cord-002011-u6dfp6gf.txt
