Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To investigate the presence of the following panel of cytokines: Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF), Interleukin- 16(IL-16), Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), Interleukin- 17 (IL-17A), Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha (TNF-a), in red blood cells (RBCs) and the plasma of whole blood units. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1- To assess the effect of storage on the plasma cytokines level, 2- To assess the effect of pre-storage leucofilteration of whole blood on the accumulation of that panel of plasma cytokines during storage, 3- To investigate the possible release of red cell cytokines to the plasma of whole blood units by hemolysis during storage. | — |
