TNF and pulmonary tuberculosis: We measured serum pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α and IL-8), eicosanoids (PGE2, LTB4, RvD1, Mar1, and LXA4), a marker of tissue damage (cell-free nucleosomes), and indicators of redox status (malonaldehyde, 8-isoprostane, total oxidants, and antioxidants), as well as a score of radiological abnormalities (SRA) and a QoL questionnaire, in 25 patients with pulmonary TB at the time of diagnosis (t0) and two months after the initiation of treatment (t2).
