The Role of IL-17 in the Association between Pneumococcal Pneumonia and Allergic Sensitization

Table 2

Logistic regression models assessing the impact of each variable on the risk of pneumococcal pneumonia.

Variables	Odds ratios (95%CI)*	𝑃 value
IL-17 (per an increment of 1.0 pg/mL)	1.10 (1.03–1.17)	0.003
OVA sensitization/challenge	4.03 (0.46–35.07)	0.21
IL-4 (per an increment of 1.0 pg/mL)	81.9 (4.30–1523.87)	0.003

The logistic regression model was adjusted for the interaction term between IL-4 and OVA sensitization/challenge.
