IL-6 polymorphism associated with fatal outcome in patients with severe traumatic brain injury

11 Feb 2011

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to test whether a functional polymorphism (-174C/G) located in the promoter region of the interleukin-6 (IL-6) gene is associated with primary short-term outcome (death or Intensive Care Unit discharge) in patients with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). METHODS: The study group consisted of 77 male patients who suffered severe TBI. The -174C/G IL-6 polymorphism was analysed...
