Therapeutic efforts now increasingly target endothelial stabilization and coagulation-immune crosstalk, yet outcomes depend on timing, infectious context, and host state. While approaches such as glycocalyx restoration, inflammasome inhibition, and FXII-based biomimetics show promise, successful intervention will likely require combination strategies that preserve host defense while limiting vascular damage. Given the diversity of host-pathogen interactions, no single therapy is expected to be universally effective.
Bohinc et al. (2026) studied this question.
