Quick Summary
In this randomized controlled trial in participants hospitalized with sepsis, a ketogenic diet improved clinical outcomes compared to a higher-carbohydrate control diet.
What was studied?
The effect of a ketogenic diet (KD) on clinical outcomes in the context of sepsis.
The primary outcome was the blood level of beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB, a ketone body). The secondary outcomes were 30-day survival; the proportion of participants who needed insulin treatment; the number of days without need for mechanical ventilation, vasopressors, dialysis, or the intensive care unit (ICU); and sepsis severity, which was measured using 2 different questionnaires.
