ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

Despite emerging evidence linking blood cell indices (BCIs) to sepsis mortality, the inconsistency of observational studies obscures the clarity of these associations. This study aims to clarify the causal influence of BCIs on 28-day mortality rates in sepsis patients.

METHODS:

Utilizing univariable and multivariable Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses, we examined the impact of BCIs on sepsis mortality by analyzing data from extensive genome-wide association studies. The inverse-variance weighted (IVW) method was our primary analytic tool, complemented by several robustness checks to mitigate pleiotropy, including weighted median, mode-based estimates, MR-Egger regression, and MR-PRESSO. Subsequently, we conducted a retrospective study to further explore the correlation between platelet indices and 28-day mortality of sepsis using real-world data.

RESULTS:

Our findings highlight a significant causal relationship between platelet distribution width (PDW) and 28-day mortality in sepsis, with the univariable Mendelian randomization approach yielding an odds ratio of 1.12 (95% CI, 1.06-1.26; P < 0.05). Multivariable analysis further substantiated PDW's robust association with mortality risk (OR 1.23; 95% CI, 1.03-1.48; P < 0.05). Conversely, our analysis did not uncover significant correlations between the genetic predispositions to other BCIs-including red blood cell count, erythrocyte distribution width, platelet count, mean platelet volume, white blood cell count, neutrophil count, neutrophil percentage, lymphocyte count, and lymphocyte percentage-and 28-day mortality in sepsis. Additionally, an inverse MR analysis did not establish a causal impact of 28-day mortality in sepsis on PDW (OR 1.00; 95% CI, 1.00-1.07; P = 0.29). Moreover, a similar result was observed in the retrospective study.

CONCLUSIONS:

The study underscores the independent causal role of PDW in predicting 28-day mortality in sepsis, suggesting its potential utility in early patient assessment, risk stratification, and tailoring of therapeutic interventions.
