From: Elevated serum IFN-γand IFN-γ/IL-6 ratio in Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease
Serum cytokines levels of patients in KFD, SJIA, and KD. Serum IL-6, serum IFN-γ, and IFN-γ/IL-6 ratio in all patients (A, B, and C) and those without MAS (D, E, and F). Differences were analyzed between patients with KFD and SJIA, KFD and KD. Compared to patients with SJIA or KD, patients with KFD showed an elevation of serum IFN-γ and IFN-γ/IL-6 ratio, and a much lower level of serum IL-6. P-value was 0.16 for the comparison of serum IFN-γ between all KFD and SJIA patients (B). P-values for other comparisons were < 0.05
