We analysed the association between levels of various cytokines and specificities of the clinical course and severity of toxic syndrome in pregnant women with influenza А(H1N1)pdm09, complicated by pneumonia. Cytokines reduce the sensitivity of the warm receptors and increase that of the cold receptors, which is regarded by patients as episodes of chills. According to correlation analysis data, IL-6 has the largest direct correlation with the persistence of fever, whereas interrelations between other cytokines and persistence of higher temperature proved to be less significant. It is noteworthy that elevated IL-6 levels lead to impairment of sleep architecture, which contributes to increased and persistent weakness, drowsiness. As has been shown, persistence of cough is to a significant degree determined by correlations between the levels of such cytokines, as TNF-α, IL-4 and IL-8. We assessed correlations between individual signs of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and cytokine levels. In diagnosing SIRS according to procalcitonin levels in viral-bacterial pneumonia 3 significant correlations were found (association with IL-8 – 0.72, TNF-α – 0.76 and IL-6 – 0.66). In pregnant women with pneumonia, generalised inflammatory process and a subsequent development of SIRS lower levels of the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-4 have been found. A quantitative correlational approach to assessment of cytokine interrelationships has been proposed, permitting to differentiate between uncomplicated and complicated forms of influenza.
