Since increased IL-17 may serve as a biomarker to indicate the severity of ARDS in patients with sepsis-induced ARDS [62], researchers have estimated the IL-17 (rs763780, rs2275913, and rs8193036) and NF-κB1 (rs3774934) polymorphisms in a Chinese population that were associated with ARDS prediction and prognosis [63]. Here, IL17A is linked to Sepsis.
