Table 7.
Multiple logistic regression analysis: sepsis versus PCT, MR-proADM, IL-6, IL-10, TNF-α, and MCP-1 (variables were included if p < 0.05 and removed if p > 0.1). (A) The group of sepsis patients (104 subjects) were compared with SIRS patients and healthy individuals (101 subjects). (B) Sepsis patients (104 subjects) were compared only with SIRS patients (51 subjects).
