The presence of submarine scars left by the early Holocene events acted as predisposition factors for the development of the failure while the earthquake of 1663 was the main triggering factor of the first submarine failure.
Severe acidosis in sepsis is associated with haemodynamic instability through many different pathophysiologic mechanisms (reduced left ventricular contractility, diastolic dysfunction and right ventricular failure, predisposition to cardiac arrhythmias, arterial vasodilation, impaired responsiveness to catecholamines, reduced hepatic blood flow, impaired oxygen tissue delivery) [27].
