abstract = {Since interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a pivotal proinflammatory cytokine implicated in the pathogenesis of giant cell arteritis
(GCA), we aimed to determine the potential association of the functional IL6 -174 G/C polymorphism with GCA as
well as if the single base change variation at the promoter region in the human IL-6 gene may account for differences
in the clinical spectrum of GCA between cranial and extracranial large-vessel vasculitis (LVV)-GCA.},
