    This study evaluated hematologic and metabolic markers for predicting 28-day mortality in sepsis patients in intensive care.

  • 2

    The study included 805 adult sepsis patients, analyzing demographic data, clinical severity scores, and laboratory parameters.

  • 3

    The uric acid-to-albumin ratio (UA/Alb) showed the highest predictive performance for mortality, followed by the triglyceride-glucose index.

  • 4

    Non-survivors exhibited higher disease severity scores and distinct biochemical profiles, including lower hemoglobin and albumin levels.

  • 5

    Hematologic and metabolic indices may improve early mortality prediction in septic patients, but their independence from severity scores requires caution.
