Percentage of TUNEL-positive (apoptotic) cells in PBMCs from pediatric patients with sepsis. (A) Percentage of apoptotic cells was compared between the severities of sepsis. (P=0.001, sepsis vs. MOD). (B) Correlation analysis between levels of apoptosis and outcome of patients with sepsis (P=0.0344; Student's t-test; alive vs. did not survive). TUNEL, terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick-end labeling; PBMC, peripheral blood mononuclear cell; MOD, multiple organ dysfunction.
