High plasma levels of pro-inflammatory factors interleukin-17 and interleukin-23 are associated with poor outcome of cardiac-arrest patients: a single center experience

Systemic inflammation is an important feature of post-cardiac arrest syndrome (PCAS). This study was designed to determine whether the plasma concentrations of some circulating pro-inflammatory cytokines (interleukin-17 [IL-8], IL-22, IL-23 and IL-33) are of value in predicting the outcome of patien...

Description
Summary:Systemic inflammation is an important feature of post-cardiac arrest syndrome (PCAS). This study was designed to determine whether the plasma concentrations of some circulating pro-inflammatory cytokines (interleukin-17 [IL-8], IL-22, IL-23 and IL-33) are of value in predicting the outcome of patients after return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) during the post-cardiac arrest period. This was a prospective observational clinical study. In total, 21 patients (survivors, n = 10; non-survivors, n = 11) who experienced cardiac arrest and successful ROSC with expected survival of at least 7 days were consecutively enrolled from January 2016 to December 2017. Of the 21 enrolled patients, ten survived were designated "survivors". The other eleven patients died between 2 days and 1 months post ROSC. Venous blood was drawn at three time-points: baseline (
