2026-08-25
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p> <bold>Background:</bold> Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a key pro-inflammatory cytokine involved in the early immune response to bacterial infections. The magnitude of IL-6 production is influenced by multiple factors, including bacterial characteristics, microbial burden, and host immune responsiveness. Although cytokine responses to bacterial pathogens have been widely investigated, limit...
