Abstract
Myocardial dysfunction is an important complication of sepsis and an important cause of death in sepsis patients. Sepsis will significantly change the composition of gut microbiota, and the destruction of gut microbiota also creates conditions for the occurrence and progression of sepsis. Gut microbiota is an important player in myocardial injury in sepsis. This review elaborates on the possible mechanisms of gut microbiota affecting myocardial injury in sepsis, including short-chain fatty acids, trimethylamine and trimethylamine oxides, various cytokines, and mitochondrial dysfunction. A better understanding of the mechanism could help improve the treatment of sepsis and get a better prognosis for sepsis patients.
