  1. All parameters (median [IQR]) are given at intervention start (0 h), 24 h, 48 h and 72 h. Absolute p values are given over groups and over time. For absolute inflammatory marker levels as well as additional laboratory markers measured, refer to Additional file 1: Table S2
  2. The italic values reflect p-values, and are intended to differentiate statistics from numeric values
