Sevoflurane 70-81 interleukin 6 Homo sapiens 132-136 30589029-10 2018 Conclusion: The POCD incidence was higher in elderly patients receiving sevoflurane anesthesia and DEX could alleviate POCD in these patients through decreasing plasma TNF-alpha and IL-6 concentrations. Sevoflurane 72-83 interleukin 6 Homo sapiens 182-186
