Relationship of individual cytokines with clinical and laboratory manifestations of KSHV-MCD

Clinical manifestationHuman and viral cytokine prediction models
Predictor(s)ModelAdjusted R2 for model prediction vs actual value
 Fever (temperature, °C) hIL-6 T = 36.9 + 0.019 (hIL-6) 0.26 
 Respiratory symptoms* hIL-6 Predicted to be present if hIL-6 ≥ 17.74 NA (correctly predicted symptom presence or absence in 70.4% of cases: 25/33 [76%] without and 13/21 [62%] with) 
 Gastrointestinal symptoms* hIL-6 Predicted to be present if hIL-6 ≥ 19.55 NA (correctly predicted symptoms presence or absence in 77.8% of cases: [77.8%] 27/31 [87%] without and 15/23 [65%] with) 
Laboratory manifestation 
 Hemoglobin hIL-6 with vIL-6 Hb = 12.7 − 0.025(hIL-6) − 0.69(vIL-6) 0.30 
 Platelets hIL-6 Plt = 202 − 1.35(hIL-6) 0.15 
 Sodium hIL-6 with vIL-6 and IL-10 Na = 139.9 − 0.0577(h-IL-6) + 0.0002(IL-10) − 2.77(vIL-6) 0.47 
 Albumin IL-1β with vIL-6 Alb = 3.88 − 0.21(IL-1β) − 0.33(vIL-6) 0.33
