All patients were subjected to our standard therapeutic protocol, including early excision of burn wound, systemic antibiotic therapy, and continuous enteral feeding.

b

Day of blood sample collection relative to day of injury; day 0 = same day as injury, day 1 = 1 day after injury. Blood samples were taken once from each patient.

c

The amounts of IL-10 in sera of these patients were measured by ELISA.
