Associations of Serum Resistin With the Severity and Prognosis in Patients With Community-Acquired Pneumonia

BackgroundResistin is an endogenous ligand of Toll-like receptor 4 that activates several inflammatory signals. But the physiological function of resistin in community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) remains unknown. The goal of this research was to explore the associations between serum resistin and the s...
