IL6 and infection: The same positive correlations or even stronger were found when the correlations were explored in the infection group, but the statistical significance was lost for the TNFα (CRP, r = 0.535, 0.181 to 0.771, p = 0.001; IL6, r = 0.499, 0.257 to 0.707, p < 0.001 and TNFα, r = 0.244, −0.101 to 0.585, p = 0.119) (Figure 2 and Table 4).
