| Abstract | Sepsis is a life-threatening condition in which the immune response is directed towards the host tissues, causing organ failure. Since sepsis does not present with specific symptoms, its diagnosis is often delayed. The lack of diagnostic accuracy results in a non-specific diagnosis, and to date, a standard diagnostic test to detect sepsis in patients remains lacking. Therefore, it is vital to identify sepsis-related diagnostic genes. This study aimed to conduct an integrated analysis to assess the immune scores of samples from patients diagnosed with sepsis and normal samples, followed by weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) to identify immune infiltration-related genes and potential transcriptome markers in sepsis. Furthermore, gene regulatory networks were established to screen diagnostic markers for sepsis based on the protein-protein interaction networks involving these immune infiltration-related genes. Moreover, we integrated WGCNA with the support vector machine (SVM) algorithm to build a diagnostic model for sepsis. Results showed that the immune score was significantly lower in the samples from patients with sepsis than in normal samples. A total of 328 and 333 genes were positively and negatively correlated with the immune score, respectively. Using the MCODE plugin in Cytoscape, we identified four modules, and through functional annotation, we found that these modules were related to the immune response. Gene Ontology functional enrichment analysis showed that the identified genes were associated with functions such as neutrophil degranulation, neutrophil activation in the immune response, neutrophil activation, and neutrophil-mediated immunity. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis showed the enrichment of pathways such as primary immunodeficiency, Th1- and Th2-cell differentiation, T-cell receptor signaling pathway, and natural killer cell-mediated cytotoxicity. Finally, we identified a four-gene signature, containing the hub genes LCK, CCL5, ITGAM, and MMP9, and established a model that could be used to diagnose patients with sepsis. |

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.
