The propagation indices (explosion pressures, rates of pressure rise, severity factors and explosion times) of CH4-N2O flames in the presence of inert gases (He, Ar, N2 and CO2) were determined by experiments performed in a spherical vessel with central ignition.
Neutrophils predominated after septic insult and also rose with severity (OR 0.75).
