Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical significance of tumor necrosis factor-?(TNF-?)and interleukin-6(IL-6)in the ascitic fluid of cirrhotic patients with spontaneous bacterial peritonitis(SBP).Methods TNF-? and IL-6 in the ascitic fluid of 32 cirrhotic patients with SBP were measured by ELISA.The group was compared with the value in transudatory ascites of 30 cirrhotic patients.Results The levels of TNF-? and IL-6 in the ascitic fluid of cirrhotic patients with SBP were much higher than those in transudatory ascites of cirrhotic patients(P
