Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: It has been suggested that interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a prognostic indicator for survival in patients with gastric carcinoma, but this has not been proved using survival analysis. In Asians, the -634G allele is associated with increased IL-6 production. The objective of this study was to evaluate the association between serum IL-6 levels, -634G/C polymorphism, and overall survival after resection for...
