Retrospective study on the correlation between serum MIF level and the condition and prognosis of patients with traumatic head injury.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

This study aimed to investigate the correlation between serum levels of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) and the condition and prognosis of patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI).

Methods

A retrospective study design was used, and the clinical data of 131 TBI patients from February 2019 to January 2022 were analyzed. Patients were divided into mild (13-15 points), moderate (9-12 points), or severe (3-8 points) groups according to their Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score after admission. The serum levels of BDNF, MIF, and MBP in the three groups were compared, and their correlation with the severity of TBI was analyzed. Patients were then separated into a good prognosis group (4-5 points) and a poor prognosis group (≤3 points) based on their Glasgow Prog
