Meanwhile, TNF‐α (median [IQR]: 45.4 [34.5–54.4] pg/ml vs. 38.7 [28.6–47.1] pg/ml, P < 0.001) (Figure 3E), IL‐1β (median [IQR]: 4.0 [2.5–5.6] pg/ml vs. 2.5 [1.4–3.9] pg/ml, P < 0.001) (Figure 3F), IL‐6 (median [IQR]: 18.7 [14.7–21.6] pg/ml vs. 16.9 [11.5–21.3] pg/ml, P = 0.039) (Figure 3G), and IL‐17 (median [IQR]: 39.8 [30.2–58.8] pg/ml vs. 35.6 [25.1–49.2] pg/ml, P = 0.022) (Figure 3H) were all increased in anxiety NSCLC survivors compared to non‐anxiety NSCLC survivors. Here, TNF is linked to Anxiety.
