Serum tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) was evaluated in Vibrio vulnificus-infected patients at admission. The median TNF-α concentration in the non-survivor group was determined to be 261.0 pg/mL, in contrast to 69.5 pg/mL in the survivor group (P = 0.001). Hence, serum TNF-α concentration may potentially be an early predictor of the mortality in patients with Vibrio septicemia.
在创伤弧菌感染患者入院时评估血清肿瘤坏死因子-α(TNF-α)。非存活组的TNF-α浓度中位数确定为261.0 pg/mL,而存活组为69.5 pg/mL(P = 0.001)。因此,血清TNF-α浓度可能是创伤弧菌败血症患者死亡率的早期预测指标。
