IL6 and Sepsis: SAA (on sepsis, and at 24 h and 48 h after sepsis), CRP (at 48 h and 24 h before sepsis, on sepsis, and at 24 h and 48 h after sepsis), PCT (at 48 h and 24 h before sepsis, on sepsis, and at 24 h and 48 h after sepsis), IL-6 (on sepsis, and at 24 h after sepsis) were significantly higher in patients with sepsis compared with no-sepsis (P < 0.05).
