2021, PeptidesCitation Excerpt :The 5 million deaths yearly represent only a small proportion of the injured patients, many of those who survive are left with temporary or permanent disability [1]. Many polytrauma victims die within the first 48 h after admission [2–4], however, improvements in traumatology and intensive therapy have caused a right-shift in time of mortality after the injury [5]. A complex and dynamic immune response is initiated almost immediately after the physical trauma comprising of pro- and anti-inflammatory responses.
