Which outcome characterizes severe burns disrupting gut flora?

💡 Explanation

Severe burns cause intestinal barrier dysfunction, triggering *systemic inflammation* because gut microbiota translocate into circulation, and the ensuing inflammatory response overwhelms organ function, therefore multi-organ failure frequently occurs; rather than directed protection.
