Therefore, 33 patients were included in the reassessment after nine years of follow-up and 92 patients were included in the Cox mortality analysis with IL-6 as a time-dependent covariate. Regarding the inflammatory profile, in patients who survived after nine years, there was a significant increase in IL-6 [0.4 (0.2– 0.8) vs 5.7 (3.4– 11) pg/mL; p < 0.001] and reduction in lymphocyte count [2.1 (1.6– 2.4) vs 1.4 (1.2– 2.1)10^9/L; p < 0.01] with an increase in the neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (2.0 ± 0.7 vs 2.7 ± 1.2; p = 0.003). The Cox mortality model did not show a statistical significance influence of IL-6 assessed during the follow-up.Conclusion: There was a progressive increase in IL-6 during the follow-up, however, without influence on mortality.Keywords: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, inflammation, interleukin-6, severity of illness index, mortalityPrudente RFerrari RMesquita CMachado LFranco EGodoy ITanni SDove Medical Pressarticlechronic obstructive pulmonary disease. inflammation. interleukin-6. severity of illness index. mortalityDiseases of the respiratory systemRC705-779ENInternational Journal of COPD, Vol Volume 16, Pp 3019-3026 (2021)
