Animal study results have suggested a role in sepsis for human interleukin for DA1.a cells/leukemia inhibitory factor (HILDA/LIF). HILDA/LIF and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels were prospectively studied by serial ELISAs in 34 septic patients. HILDA/LIF was detected in 11 of 34 patients at plasma levels of 100-37,000 pg/mL. Peak HILDA/LIF levels correlated with increased temperature and creatinine and IL-6 and with decreased arterial CO2 (P < .05). Multivariate analysis showed that shock and decreased arterial CO2 accounted for 75% of peak HILDA/LIF plasma variations (R2 = .753). Fatal outcome was most often associated with detectable HILDA/LIF (> 56 pg/mL) and peak IL-6 plasma levels > 850 pg/mL (sensitivity, 83%; specificity, 87%), but both (at respective levels of > 480 and > 850 pg/mL) were associated with fatal outcome. HILDA/LIF was detected in septic patients exhibiting shock, and its levels correlated with higher mortality and shorter survival.
