We identified 62-gene and 16-gene S1PR1-related molecular signatures (SMS) associated with survival of patients with sepsis in discovery cohort. Both SMS genes are significantly enriched in multiple key immunity-related pathways that are known to play critical roles in sepsis development. Meanwhile, the SMS performs well in a validation cohort containing sepsis patients. We further confirmed our SMSs, as newly developed gene signatures, perform significantly better than random gene signatures with the same gene size, in sepsis survival prognosis.
