Four children, from 5 to 10 years aged, presented the Sylvanus Olympio Hospital (SOTH) of Lomé (Togo) with severe (second- and third-degree) burns 25–78% total body surface area (TBSA) due flame in domestic accidents were treated using skin substitutes. We conducted substitution by dermal templates (Integra®) for two children allografts other two. In cases templates, we performed a wound excisi...
BACKGROUND Laser-Doppler imaging (LDI) of cutaneous blood flow is beginning to be used by burn surgeons to predict the healing time of burn wounds; predicted healing time is used to determine wound treatment as either dressings or surgery. In this paper, we do a statistical analysis of the performance of the technique. METHODS We used data from a study carried out by five burn centers: LDI wa...
High-mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1), a ubiquitous nuclear protein, drives proinflammatory responses when released extracellularly. It plays a key role as a distal mediator in the development of acute lung injury (ALI). Sodium butyrate, an inhibitor of histone deacetylase, has been demonstrated to inhibit HMGB1 expression. This study investigates the effect of sodium butyrate on burn-induc...
INTRODUCTION Monitoring of hemodynamic and volumetric parameters after severe burns is of critical importance. Pulmonary artery catheters, however, have been associated with many risks. Our aim was to show the feasibility of continuous monitoring with minimally invasive transpulmonary thermodilution (TPTD) in severely burned pediatric patients. METHODS This prospective cohort study was conduc...
Burns are injuries which may require long hospitalization and may result in important impairment and disability. Burn injuries are still common especially in developing countries. Assessment of the epidemiology of burns is very important for introduction of preventive methods. This study was conducted in Yazd to assess and describe the epidemiology of burns including its main causes, and its de...
Childhood burns in Egypt are a significant problem, especially in families of low socioeconomic status. These families live in overcrowded flats using kerosene stoves but lacking proper hygiene and adequate safety measures. Over the 6-yr period 2004-2009 a total number of 1999 burned children (1440 children treated as out-patients with less than 10% total body surface area [TBSA] burned plus 55...
Burn injury and sepsis produce acute gastrointestinal derangements that may predispose patients to bacterial translocation. We studied the effects of enalapril, an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI), on gastrointestinal anatomic alterations, bacterial translocation, and related mortality during gut-derived sepsis in burned mice that had received a prior bacterial challenge. BALB/c m...
Endogenous hydrogen sulfide (H(2)S) is naturally synthesized in many types of mammalian cells from L-cysteine in the reactions catalyzed by cystathionine-β-synthase and cystathionine-γ-lyase (CSE). H(2)S has been demonstrated to play a proinflammatory role in various animal models of hindpaw edema, acute pancreatitis, lipopolysaccharide-induced endotoxemia and cecal ligation, and puncture-induc...
BACKGROUND Despite significant medical advances and improvement in overall mortality rate following burn injury, the treatment of patients with extensive burns remains a major challenge for intensivists. We present a study aimed to evaluate the short- and the long-term outcomes of severe burn patients (total body surface area, TBSA > 40%) treated in a polyvalent intensive care unit (ICU) and to...
