IL-6 levels [LTB 0.73 (0.4–1.0) vs DS-TB 15 (4–32), p = 0.0002] (Figure 4A), IL-1β [LTB 0.035 (0–0.14) vs DS-TB 0.465 (0.33–0.76), p = 0.0009) (Figure 4B) and IP-10 [LTB 282 (162–474) vs DS-TB 2,718 (1,033–5,658), p = 0.0015) (Figure 4C) were increased in DS-TB patients compared to LTB. This evidence concerns the gene IL1B and tuberculosis.
