A study in patients suffering from AKI post-blunt trauma showed a rapid increase in concentrations on D0 (time of measurements after injury within the first 12 h = D0, 24–96 h = D1–D4, and ≥96 h ≥ D4) in inflammatory factors [e.g., IL-8, MCP-1 (alias CCL2), and IL-6] and anti-inflammatory factor (e.g., IL-1ra), followed by a drop on D4, in IL-1ra, IL-4, and IL-6 (189). This evidence concerns the gene IL6 and acute kidney injury.
