Canola and regular rapeseed oils are extracted from the seeds of several of the brassica plants - the same family of plants from which we get vegetables such as Brussels sprouts, broccoli, cabbage, kale, mustard greens, and several other vegetables.
Cardiac troponins are elevated in 85% of patients with sepsis in the absence of acute coronary syndrome. Small studies have shown that elevated troponin levels identify patients with sepsis who are at increased risk of mortality.
Sepsis, also known as the sepsis syndrome or SIRS, is the combination of inflammation throughout the body; problems with the blood's clotting mechanism (coagulopathy); and low blood pressure (hypotension). All three are part of the body's immune response to infection. In its most severe form, sepsis can drastically reduce blood flow to the major organs, leading eventually to septic shock, widespread organ failure and death. Sepsis caused by infection occurs in approximately one in five of all hospital admissions.
