Is disadvantageous decision-making on a rodent gambling task associated with increased motor impulsivity in a population of male rats?
The data analyzed were limited to that produced by our laboratory and did not include data of other researchers who have used the task.
We observed low ADAMTS-13 activity and antigen in severe sepsis and in other conditions associated with organ dysfunction. ADAMTS-13 levels were significantly associated with differences in morbidity, mortality, and variables of inflammation and endothelial dysregulation only in severe sepsis patients. This suggests that ADAMTS-13 deficiency may have a pathophysiological relevance specific to severe sepsis.
