To the Editor—We read with great in-terest the article by Eisen et al. [1], in which the authors report an ambitious multivariable analysis of several articles on the impact of mannose-binding lectin (MBL) deficiency on the outcome of se-vere bacterial infection and sepsis. Al-though genetic polymorphisms in the genes encoding different molecules of the innate immune system have been associ-ated with increased mortality in patients with severe sepsis and septic shock [2–4], examination of the association of MBL de-ficiency with death among patients in the intensive care unit has yielded conflictin
