Background: We investigated the levels of IL-I, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-I0 and IL-12 in serum of the children with trauma and its relation with the severity of trauma.
Methods: We included 45 children with moderate or severe multipl trauma and 21 healthy children for control group to our study. The serum IL-I, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-IO and IL-12 were measured by micro ELISA.
Results: Wefound a statistically significant difference between the serum values of IL-l, IL-4, 1 L-6, IL-I0 in the children with trauma and healthy control group. A similar difference was also observed between the control group and the trauma group with injury severity score (ISS) £30 and also ISS 3 32. Serum values of IL-2 and IL-12 did not show significant difference between the groups. We detected a positive correlation between ISS and IL-l, IL-6, IL-I0 and IL-I2 (respectively r = 0,602, p = 0,000; r = 0,391, p = 0,008; r = 0,399, p = 0,007; r = 0,475, p = 0,001 ).
Conclusion: These results point out that serum IL-6, IL-I0, IL-12 and especially IL-l has a close relationship with the severity of the tissue damage after trauma.
