The objective of the investigation was to evaluate the possible use of selected cytokines and cytokine receptors in the early diagnosis of postoperative intraabdominal sepsis. The investigation was focused on the dynamics of plasma levels of tumour necrotizing factor-alfa (TNFalfa), interleukin (IL)-1beta, IL-2, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, soluble receptors IL-2 and IL-6 (sIL-2R and sIL-6R) and the receptor antagonist IL-1 (IL-1ra). The investigated parameters were tested on model operations (resection of large bowel and resection of pancreas). These two groups were compared with values recorded in patients with sepsis and with healthy subjects. Based on the assembled results the authors recommend to use for postoperative investigations the first 48 hours and to follow up the following parameters: IL-6, IL-ra or sIL-2R. During the first 48 hours these indicators differentiate sufficiently specifically incipient sepsis from an uncomplicated postoperative condition. During the subsequent period, i.e. more than 48 hours after surgery, it is useful to include in the examination pattern also some acute stage proteins (C reactive protein, alfa1-antitrypsin and haptalobin) which differentiate sepsis between the 3rd and 5th day after surgery.
