“…Pinargote-Celorio et al recently confirmed previous findings suggesting that proinflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-8) and anti-inflammatory cytokines (IL-10) could predict one-month mortality for CAP in elderly patients [14,18]. IL-6 is a cytokine of the acute phase and has been mostly described as a risk factor for early mortality [15,44].…”

“…Serum amyloid A protein (SAA), neopterin (NP), myeloperoxidase (MPO), anti-apolipoprotein A-1 IgG (anti-apoA-1), and anti-phosphorylcholine IgM (anti-PC IgM) have been recently investigated in the same context and/or in cardiovascular diseases [ 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 ]. An association between high levels of pro and anti-inflammatory cytokines (especially interleukin (IL)-1, -6, and -11) with short- and long-term mortality of CAP has been described, but information concerning elderly patients is lacking [ 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 ].…”

“…36 Moreover, expression levels of miR-193a-5p were related to the duration of the required hospital stay in our study. Identified molecular targets of miR-193a-5p included IL-10, which is known to correlate with the CURB-65 score and is associated with increased mortality in patients with CAP 37 and mTOR, which has been shown to be down-regulated in sepsis due to CAP. 38 Our group previously showed the positive correlation of cell-free miR-193a-5p expression with disease severity in sepsis patients.…”

“…In recent decades, our knowledge of the biochemical processes underlying critical illness has considerably improved. We realized that cytokines perform important roles in host defense and maintenance of tissue homeostasis; however, abnormal or excessive production of cytokines disrupts these functions, resulting in inflammation and tissue injury [17], and there is strong evidence that cytokines work as important mediators of inflammatory and immunologic diseases and that elevated cytokine levels can contribute to organ dysfunction [18][19][20]. Evidence suggests that cytokines, including IL-8, TNF-a, and IL-10, strongly predict clinical outcome alone or in combination with other variables or widely accepted severity scores [21,22].…”
