Markers of the inflammatory response, interleukin 6, C-reactive protein, albumin and full blood count, were measured in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients (n = 21) with and without weight loss ( > 5%). There were significant increases in circulating C-reactive protein (P < 0.001), interleukin 6 (P < 0.01) and platelets (P < 0.01) in the weight-losing group. Moreover, there was a statistically significant correlation (r = 0.785, P < 0.001) between interleukin 6 and C-reactive protein concentrations. These results are consistent with interleukin 6 and the acute phase response promoting weight loss in NSCLC.
在体重减轻(>5%)和未体重减轻的非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)患者(n = 21)中,检测了炎症反应标志物白细胞介素6、C反应蛋白、白蛋白和全血细胞计数。体重减轻组患者循环C反应蛋白(P < 0.001)、白细胞介素6(P < 0.01)和血小板(P < 0.01)显著增加。此外,白细胞介素6与C反应蛋白浓度之间存在统计学显著相关性(r = 0.785,P < 0.001)。这些结果与白细胞介素6和急性期反应促进NSCLC患者体重减轻一致。
