Combined injury signs compared to radiation injury signs

Early signs	More water intake
	Greater decreases in numbers of total WBCs
	More γ-H2AX formation in Lin+ bone-marrow cells
	Similar decreases in survivin protein
	Increased serum concentrations of IL-1β, -6, -8, G-CSF, and Flt-3 ligand
Intermediate signs	Faster body-weight decreases
	Slower wound-healing rate
	Greater decreases in numbers of RBCs and platelets
	Less γ-H2AX formation in PBMCs
	Greater increases in serum concentrations of IL-1β, -6, -8, and G-CSF
Late signs	Sustained elevated serum concentrations of IL-8 and G-CSF
	More mortality
	Slower wound-healing rate
