Figure 1. Survival of mice exposed to ethanol prior to burn injury.
Mice were exposed to ethanol or saline as a control for a total of 6 days (3 days ethanol, 4 days rest, 3 days ethanol) prior to burn injury and monitored for survival out to 7 days post-injury. p < 0.05, burn ethanol compared to burn vehicle by Gehan-Breslow-Wilcoxon test. Data were combined from 2 independent experiments and are expressed as percent survival. N = 4 (sham groups), n = 10-19 (burn groups).
