Which outcome reduces inflammation when apoptotic cells accumulate?

💡 Explanation

Secondary necrosis increases when clearance is insufficient; therefore impaired efferocytosis from failed *phagocytosis* increases inflammatory signals because dead cells rupture rather than undergo ordered removal, resulting in more inflammation relative to proper phagocytic clearance.
