Abstract: Objective To observe and analyze the change situation of trace elements and cytokines in the patients with leukoderma.Methods Sixty-two patients with leukoderma in our hospital from June 2013 to January 2016 were selected as the observation group and contemporaneous 62 individuals undergoing physical examination were selected as the control group.Then the serum trace elements and cytokines levels were compared between the two groups and the detection results of above serum indexes in the observation group were compared among different grades and stages too.Results The serum trace elements levels of the observation group were all lower than those of the control group,the serum interleukin 10(IL-10)level was lower than that of the control group,while other serum cytokines levels were all higher than those of the control group,moreover the detecfion results of above serum indexes in the observation group had statistical differences among different grades and stages(P＜0.05).Conclusion Leukoderma has obvious effect on trace elements and cytokines and the influence of differente grades and stages of leukoderma on their expressions is inconsistent.
