| Abstract | Background Sepsis is the major cause of death in Intensive Care Unit (ICU) globally. Molecular detection enables rapid diagnosis that allows early intervention to minimize the death rate. Recent studies showed that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) regulate proinflammatory genes and are related to the dysfunction of organs in sepsis. Identifying lncRNA signature with absolute abundance is challenging because of the technical variation and the systematic experimental bias. Results Cohorts (n = 768) containing whole blood lncRNA profiling of sepsis patients in the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database were included. We proposed a novel diagnostic strategy that made use of the relative expressions of lncRNA pairs, which are reversed between sepsis patients and normal controls (eg. lncRNAi > lncRNAj in sepsis patients and lncRNAi < lncRNAj in normal controls), to identify 14 lncRNA pairs as a sepsis diagnostic signature. The signature was then applied to independent cohorts (n = 644) to evaluate its predictive performance across different ages and normalization methods. Comparing to common machine learning models and existing signatures, SepSigLnc consistently attains better performance on the validation cohorts from the same age group (AUC = 0.990 & 0.995 in two cohorts) and across different groups (AUC = 0.878 on average), as well as cohorts processed by an alternative normalization method (AUC = 0.953 on average). Functional analysis demonstrates that the lncRNA pairs in SepsigLnc are functionally similar and tend to implicate in the same biological processes including cell fate commitment and cellular response to steroid hormone stimulus. Conclusion Our study identified 14 lncRNA pairs as signature that can facilitate the diagnosis of septic patients at an intervenable point when clinical manifestations are not dramatic. Also, the computational procedure can be generalized to a standard procedure for discovering diagnostic molecule signatures. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
