The Role of Circulating Cell-Free Hemoglobin in Sepsis-Associated Acute Kidney Injury
Summary: Sepsis is a heterogeneous clinical syndrome that is complicated commonly by acute kidney injury (sepsis-AKI). Currently, no approved pharmacologic therapies exist to either prevent sepsis-AKI or to treat sepsis-AKI once it occurs. A growing body of evidence supports a connection between red blood cell biology and sepsis-AKI. Increased levels of circulating cell-free hemoglobin (CFH) released from red blood cells during hemolysis are common during sepsis and can contribute to sepsis-AKI through several mechanisms including tubular obstruction, nitric oxide depletion, oxidative injury, and proinflammatory signaling....

The thermometer hadn’t strayed from 101.2° Fahrenheit since 11 p.m., which was when I arranged myself in bed in this position, staying very still. My head was throbbing as if I were suspended upside down in the air, and my chest was heavy. It felt like something could explode internally if I breathed in too deeply.
Also, I was alone.
That’s usually not a prob...
