1	RESULTS: Subjects who were beta-carotene-deficient (23.1% of the studied children) had higher IL-6 levels than subjects with normal beta-carotene concentrations.	beta Carotene	interleukin 6	Homo sapiens
2	The log-IL-6 and log-hs-CRP concentrations, but not the log-TNF-alpha level, were strongly and inversely related to the plasma log-beta-carotene level (taking into account log-age, energy intake, log-triglycerides, gender, log-body mass index, log-beta-carotene intake, energy from lipids and cholesterol as covariables).	beta Carotene	interleukin 6	Homo sapiens
3	When the 3 inflammatory biomarkers were introduced into the regression model along with the corresponding covariables, only the log-IL-6 level was related to the plasma log-beta-carotene level (beta = -0.505 +- 0.078; p < 0.001).	beta Carotene	interleukin 6	Homo sapiens
4	CONCLUSIONS: Inflammatory status, in particular IL-6 levels, appears to be negatively associated with plasma beta-carotene levels in schoolchildren.	beta Carotene	interleukin 6	Homo sapiens
