Not that anyone really frequents this forum BUT....
So one with a positive effect and one without. To me, that means it's a wash. I mean, I think we should stop pretending that we understand anything about systemic inflammation. At this point it's all conjecture and some pseudo-science that has gotten us nowhere fast.
I also think it's incredibly disheartening that despite a very homogeneous population with a very specific trigger, the idea of immunomodulating acute systemic disease is mostly a beside what was already the standard of care. That doesn't bode well for any other acute, acquired systemic disease we try to treat.
