Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical significance of serum levels of IL-6/10/18 in sepsis. METHODS: Sixty-six patients with sepsis were selected to be the case group. Additionally, 42 healthy adults were selected to be the control group. ELISA was used to measure the serum levels of IL-6/10/18, and ROC was utilized to evaluate the diagnostic values of IL-6/10/18 in sepsis. RESULTS: The heart rate, respiratory rate, WBC count and APACHE II score in the sepsis group were significantly higher than those in the control group, and these indexes were increased in turn in the mild sepsis group, severe sepsis group, and septic shock group (all P < 0.05 after correction). The serum IL-6/18 levels in sepsis patients were significantly higher than those in the control group, and both of the levels were increased in turn in the mild sepsis group, severe sepsis group, and septic shock group (both P < 0.05). However, no significant difference was found in serum IL-10 level between groups (P > 0.05). The cut-off points of IL-6 and IL-18 were 109.19 pg/ml (sensitivity: 94.4%; specificity: 83.3%) and 116.01 pg/ml (sensitivity: 77.8%; specificity: 83.3%), respectively. Serum IL-6 levels were positively correlated with the APACHE II score and heart rate (both P < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Serum levels of IL-6/8 are up-regulated in sepsis patients. Additionally, IL-6 has a greater sensitivity than IL-18. Serum IL-6 levels were positively correlated with the APACHE II score and heart rate, indicating that IL-6 could be used as a potential biomarker for sepsis.
