PURPOSE: The aim of the study was to determine whether distributions of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α(308), interleukin (IL)-10(1082), CD14(159), and IL-1ra gene intron 2 genotypes in critically ill patients are associated with outcome, underlying cause of sepsis, and type of microorganism. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Blood samples from 106 critically ill white patients were genotyped by method based on polymerase chain reaction for TNF-α(308), IL-10(1082), CD14(159), and IL-1ra gene intron 2. RESULTS: All patients with TNF-α(308)AA genotype survived; relative risk (RR) of death in patients with AG was 3.250 and with GG, 1.923 (P < .01). In patients with Gram-positive sepsis, IL-10(1082)AA and then AG genotypes were the most frequent ones (odds ratio [OR], 18.67 and 7.20, respectively; P < .01). When comparing IL-10(1082)AA with AG, RR of pancreatitis was 1.80 and OR was 3.40. When AA and GG were compared, RR was 7.33 and OR was 20.00. In patients with GG, RR of peritonitis was 4.07 and OR was 5.88 (P < .01). In patients with Gram-positive sepsis, CD14(159)CT was the most frequent one with OR of 5.25. Distribution of 6 IL-1ra gene intron 2 genotypes showed no significant association. CONCLUSIONS: Distribution of TNF-α(308) genotypes is associated with outcome, IL-10(1082) with type of microorganism and underlying cause of sepsis, and CD14(159) with type of microorganism.
