 AB    Elevation of serum interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta) levels, and to a
       lesser degree tumor necrosis factor alpha levels, was found in cachectic
       human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected African patients without
       concurrent opportunistic infection or neoplasia (HIV wasting syndrome).
       A heterogeneous pattern of elevations of cytokine levels, including mild
       elevations of IL-1 beta and pronounced elevations of IL-6 levels, was
       found in other cachectic states.
