“…Similar results were reported from two Brazilian studies with adult patients [18,19]. In contrast, a Japanese study with 123 septic adult patients [46] as well a Serbian study of 106 critically ill patients [47] reported increased risk for sepsis mortality associated with TNF-308GA. These discrepancies between studies from countries distributed over a wide geographical area might reflect differences related to the ethnic makeup of the populations, as suggested in a recent meta-analysis [6].…”

“…IL-1RA, a interleukin 1-receptor antagonist, is a 17 kDa protein of the IL-1 family, which inhibits the pro-inflammatory action of IL-1α and IL-1β in order to maintain the equilibrium of the inflammatory response [26][27]. In humans, under physiological conditions, it is detected in synovial fluid, tears, blood, and cerebrospinal fluid [27].…”

“…Studies comparing the IL-10 genotypes AA, AG, and GG -of severely ill patients -having sepsis as the principal causeshowed that there was a statistically significant association of the G allele to higher lethality rates [26]. Upon analysis of the influence of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) desensibilization on IL-10 production, it was noticed that this process causes a reduction in the production of this cytokine.…”
