Immune system effectors as biomarkers of prognosis after acute burns in a case-control study by Alejandro Ferrari, Lorena Di Croce, Sabrina Saavedra, Marisel Hartwig, Omar Perrone, María Alejandra Guzmán

“…Albumin, TP, C4, and transferrin showed lower initial values in DG than the SG, with a strong correlation with the total burned surface area (TBSA). These results indicate that IgG, CHOL, and CHE measurement might provide useful information for medical intervention independently of the TBSA and suggest that the measurement of TBSA-linked parameters might help to estimate the severity of burns more objectively. …”
