The predictive prognostic values of serum interleukin-2, interleukin-6, interleukin-8, tumor necrosis factor-α, and procalcitonin in surgical intensive care unit patients

Abstract: Background: The pathophysiological roles of serum cytokine levels in critically ill surgical patients has yet to be determined. This study aimed to determine the predictive prognostic values of serum interleukin IL-2, IL-6, IL-8, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and procalcitonin (PCT) in surgical intensive care unit (ICU) patients.Methods: Cytokine concentrations were measured with an IMMULITE 1000 Immunoassay System

“…It has been reported that cytokines, such as TNF-α, are activated after surgical invasion and induce biological responses similar to sepsis. [25][26][27][28] Based on our results, we believe that SVEP1 gene expression may be associated with these cytokines. Although estrogen reportedly regulates the expression of SVEP1, 29 the exact mechanisms underlying the regulation of SVEP1 remain to be determined.…”

“…Metabolite lactate has been standardized for indications of sepsis and septic shock. Furthermore, studies have shown that the proinflammatory cytokines interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha can be used as markers to diagnose sepsis ( 13 , 14 ). Although patient blood culture is recommended for diagnosing the etiologic agent of sepsis, sepsis cannot be detected in most patients due to the low abundance of microorganisms in the bloodstream or because the organisms cannot be proliferated in conventional culture medium ( 15 ).…”

“…Mean interleukin (IL)-6 Levels in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients admitted for less than 7 d were significantly suppressed relative to those hospitalized for more than 7 d[ 7 ]. In our previous study, critically ill patients exhibited high levels of IL-2, IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α in the first 24 h post-operatively, and this was associated with poor clinical outcomes[ 8 ]. Adverse outcomes are correlated with prolonged ICU LoS[ 3 ].…”
