Resistin levels measured at the BD diagnosis correlated strongly with IL-6 (rs 0.511, p = 0.002), TNF (rs 0.427, p = 0.011), IL-1β (rs 0.468, p = 0.007) and moderately with IL-10 (rs 0.372, p = 0.028), IL-12 (rs 0.398, p = 0.024), and IL-13 (rs 0.397, p = 0.03) at the time of procurement (Table 2). Here, IL6 is linked to Behcet disease.
