CXCL8 and delirium: Hence, the aims of this study were to delineate a) the cytokine profiles (including M1 macrophage, Th1, Th2, Th17, Treg, Tcell growth) of delirium due to hip fracture; b) whether a neurotoxic cytokine/chemokine profile consisting of M1, Th1, Th17 cytokines and the neurotoxic CCL11, CCL2, CCL3, CCL5, CXCL8 and CXCL10 chemokines are associated with delirium.
