Introduction 1.1. Polytrauma Road injuries are a leading cause of death worldwide [96]. The Trauma Register DGU® (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Unfallchirurgie) published in their Annual Report 2017 that the most common causes of trauma are traffic accidents (51 %) and falls from various heights (42 %) [85]. Polytrauma is a life-threatening disease with a hospital mortality of 11 % (Trauma Register DGU® 2016: 3507 patients) [85]. Furthermore, 30 % of surviving patients have disabilities at time of discharge (Trauma Register DGU® 2016: 9588 patients; [85]). After discharge from hospital life expectancy of severely injured patients is significantly lower than that of normal population [178]. The current definition of polytrauma is that at least two body regions must be significantly injured and at least one physiological problem (high age, unconsciousness, hypotension, acidosis or coagulopathy) must exist [188]. To define polytrauma and to assess the risk of death the Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) and the Injury Severity Score (ISS) are used. AIS and ISS indicate the number and severity of injuries [92]. The AIS divides the body in seven regions (external, head, neck, thorax, abdomen, spine and extremities) and evaluates the severity of the injuries in the body regions with a scale from one to six [3,92]. The ISS is calculated by summing up the squares of the highest AIS score in each of the three most severely injured areas [9]. In polytrauma the ISS is usually greater than 15 [84,186]. Mortality of polytrauma patients is composed of early mortality (within 24 hours (h): 5.1 %; for example due to haemorrhagic shock) and late mortality (within 30 days (d): 10.8 %; due to brain injuries or host defence failure) [85,118]. Fractures and soft tissue injuries (first hits) induce local and systemic inflammation. Second hits like metabolic acidosis, ischaemia/reperfusion injuries, infections or massive transfusions increase this systemic inflammatory reaction and distant organs and tissues are affected [84,118,215]. Polytrauma is often accompanied by a systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and a compensatory anti-inflammatory response syndrome (CARS). The imbalance of these immune responses, epithelial cell damage, parenchymal cell damage and cell death lead to sepsis, multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) or multiple organ failure (MOF) [84,118]. At the development of SIRS, CARS, sepsis, MODS 1 Introduction and MOF numerous cells, especially the innate immune system with phagocytic activity (monocytes, macrophages and neutrophils), protection mechanisms (coagulation cascade, kallikrein–kinin system, complement system, acute phase reaction) and mediators (damage-associated molecular pattern (DAMP), pathogen-associated molecular pattern, cytokine, chemokine, neuromediators, heat shock proteins and oxygen radicals) are involved [84,118]. Until today, there is an effort to define markers that have been linked to an increased disease severity and poorer clinical outcomes in severely injured patients [54,218,236]. The spectrum of biomarkers includes inflammatory
