Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of interleukin (IL)-6 are associated with the development of chronic renal disease (CRD). Their impact for sepsis in the field of CRD was investigated. One control cohort of 115 patients with CRD without infection and another case cohort of 198 patients with CRD and sepsis were enrolled. Genotyping at the -174 (rs1800795) and -572 positions of IL-6 (rs1800796) was done by restriction fragment length polymorphism. Circulating IL-6 was measured by an enzyme i ...[more]
