Abstract

Aim: In this study, the pleural fluid and the serum levels of IL-6 were measured in a population of 78 patients with pleural effusions. Methods: As a control group 20 healthy people were selected. The patients were evaluated in 5 groups such as transudates (n:17), exudates (n:61), mali-naney (n:35), tuberculous pleurisy (n:10) and the other exudative pleural effusions (n:16) according to their aetiologies. Results: Serum IL-6 levels in all patient groups were higher than in healthy subjects significantly. Pleural IL-6 levels were always higher than in the serum IL-6 levels. Mean serum and pleural fluid IL-6 levels were higher without significant difference between the all patient groups. Conclusion: In conclusion, this study demonstrated that serum and pleural fluid IL-6 measurement does not have any diagnostic value.

Özet

Amaç: Çalışmaya 78 plevral ef üzyonlu hasta ile kontrol grubu olarak 20 sağlıklı birey alındı. Gereç ve Yöntem: Hastaların 53'ü erkek 25'i kadındı ve 46'sı sigara içerken 32'si sigara içmeyenlerden oluşuyordu. Kontrol grubu ise 10 erkek ve 10 kadın bireyden oluşmaktaydı. Bulgular: Plevra sıvısı IL-6 düzeyleri her bir olguda serum düzeylerinden yüksekti. Tüm hasta gruplarında serum ortalama IL-6 düzeyleri, kontrol grubundan anlamlı derecede yüksekti. Ancak, her bir hasta grubu arasında serum ve plevra sıvısı ortalama IL-6 düzeyleri, istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark göstermiyordu. Sonuç: Bu çalışmada serum ve plevra sıvısı IL-6 düzeylerinin belirlenmesinin ayırıcı tanıda kullanılabilecek yardımcı bir yöntem olamayacağı kanısına vardık.
