From: Very early posttraumatic serum alterations are significantly associated to initial massive RBC substitution, injury severity, multiple organ failure and adverse clinical outcome in multiple injured patients

Il-6 dynamic depending on extent of RBC transfusion: This graph depicts IL-6 concentrations in patients after hemorrhagic shock and consecutive massive RBC substitution (≥ 10 RBC units/24 h, black columns, n = 27) as compared to those who gained less (grey columns, n = 31). Il-6 has significant higher serum levels in patients who received more than 10 RBC units/24 h at 0 h, 6 h and 48 h after trauma).
