Methods A systematic literature search of Medline Embase and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials was conducted using specific search terms. A manual review of references was also performed. Eligible studies were randomized control trials RCTs that compared granulocyte-colony stimulating factor G-CSF or granulocytemacrophage colony stimulating factor GM-CSF therapy with placebo for the treatment of sepsis in adults. Main outcome measures were all-cause mortality at 14 days and 28 days after initiation of G-CSF or GM-CSF therapy inhospital mortality reversal rate from infection and adverse events. Results Twelve RCTs with 2 380 patients were identified. In regard to 14-day mortality a total of 9 death events occurred among 71 patients in the treatment group compared with 13 events among 67 patients in the placebo groups. Meta-analysis showed there was no significant difference in 28-day mortality when G-CSF or GM-CSF were compared with placebo relative risks RR 95 confidence interval CI to P P for heterogeneity I2 15 . Compared with placebo G-CSF or GM-CSF therapy did not significantly reduce in-hospital mortality RR 95 CI to P P for heterogeneity I2 0 . However G-CSF or GM-CSF therapy significantly increased the reversal rate from infection RR 95 CI to P P for heterogeneity I2 0 . No significant difference was observed in adverse events between groups RR 95 CI to P P for heterogeneity I2 58 . Sensitivity analysis by excluding one trial did not .
