Weights for Combining Individual Cytokines for the Inflammatory Indices

Variable	WSS	PCS	IIS
Log(IL-6)	0.13	0.5	1.0
Log(sTNFR1)	0.45	0.47	2.0
Log(CRP)	0.05	0.48	0
Log(IL-18)	0.22	0.31	0
Log(IL-1RA)	0.15	0.44	0

Notes: CRP = C-reactive protein; IIS = inflammation index score; IL-6 = interleukin-6; IL-18 = interleukin-18; IL-1RA = IL-1-receptor antagonist; sTNFR1 = soluble tumor necrosis factor-α receptor-1; PCS = principal components summary score; WSS = weighted summary score.
