Fig. 1From: Long-term cardiovascular complications following sepsis: is senescence the missing link?Potential mechanisms contributing to endothelial senescence-driven cardiovascular complications after sepsis and septic shock. Sepsis and septic shock survivors have an increased risk of developing cardiovascular events such as myocardial infarction and stroke. Sepsis-induced premature senescence could explain an accelerated atherogenesis process leading to early major adverse cardiovascular events.
