Abstract

OBJECTIVES: The objectives of this article are to introduce and explore a novel paradigm based on complex nonlinear systems, and to evaluate its application to critical care research regarding the systemic host response and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS). DATA SOURCES: Published original work, review articles, scientific abstracts and books, as well as our personal files. STUDY SELECTION: Studies were selected for their relevance to the applications of nonlinear complex systems, to critical care medicine, and to the concepts presented. DATA EXTRACTION: We extracted all applicable data. DATA SYNTHESIS: Following a brief review of MODS, an introduction to complex nonlinear systems is presented, including clear concepts, definitions, and properties. By examining the multiple, nonlinear, interrelated, and variable interactions between the metabolic, neural, endocrine, immune, and inflammatory systems; data regarding interconnected antibody networks; and the redundant, nonlinear, interdependent nature of the inflammatory response, we present the hypothesis that the systemic host response to trauma, shock, or sepsis must be evaluated as a complex nonlinear system. This model provides a new explanation for the failure of trials using various antimediator therapies in the treatment of patients with sepsis and MODS. Understanding the host response as a complex nonlinear system offers innovative means of studying critical care patients, specifically by suggesting a greater focus on systemic properties. We hypothesize that analysis of variability and connectivity of individual variables offer a novel means of evaluating and differentiating the systemic properties of a complex nonlinear system. Current applications of evaluating variability and connectivity are discussed, and insights regarding future research are offered. CONCLUSION: The paradigm offered by the study of complex nonlinear systems suggests new insights to pursue research to evaluate, monitor, and treat patients with MODS.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
