Immunological factors, such as cytokines, have been proposed as a cause of changes in the lipid profile of dengue patients. We studied whether serum lipid levels and serum TNF‐α levels are associated in a group of dengue patients from an endemic region in the Northwest of Mexico. We found statistically important differences in the serum lipid profile and the TNF‐α levels of dengue patients compared with the control group, were observed. However, TNF‐α levels did not correlate with the lipid profile of dengue patients.
