Description
Summary:The Third Wiggers Bernard Conference took an interdiscipli- nary approach toexamining the role of cytokines in the de- velopment of sepsis and multiple organ failure. Sixteen international experts examine the role of cytokines in Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteremia and inflamma- tory processes such as lung inflammation. The contribu- tions explore all aspects of two growth factors, interleu- kin I and interleukin VI, as far as these molecules trigger the pathological process. The intense discussions which fol- lowed each talk are also printed in the volume.
