ABSTRACT
10pg/ml and IL-8≥70 pg/ml as the critical value,PCT and IL-6 levels had diagnostic sensitivities of 90.6% and 75.0%,and specificities of 83.3% and 77.7%,respectively.The combination of PCT and IL-6 had a sensitivity of 81.2%,and specificity of 94.2%.The positive predictive value was of 96.2% and the negative predictive value of 73.0%.CONCLUSIONS Serum PCT appears to be a promising indicator in differentiating viral infection from bacterial gastroenteritis,but the combination of PCT and IL-6 has a more clinical value.
