Patients with sepsis, defined by Sepsis-3, were included if they had community-acquired or hospital-acquired pneumonia or ventilator-associated pneumonia or bacteremia and sepsis and had displayed either macrophage activation-like syndrome (blood ferritin >4420 ng/mL) or sepsis-induced immunoparalysis (blood ferritin ≤4420 ng/mL and
