Objective(s): Wounds are physical injuries that cause a disturbance in the normal skin anatomy and function. Also, it has a severe impact on the cost of health care. Wound healing in human and mammalian species is similar and contains a complex and dynamic process consisting of four phases for restoring skin cellular structures and tissue layers. Today, therapeutic app...

Introduction: Positive effects of topical application of honey on open skin wounds have been observed, Mast cell are playing role in normal wound healing and its disturbances but the role of mast cells in wound healing in existence of honey is uncertain. Objective: The aim of this investigation was to study the effects of two times per day topical application of honey on the number of mas...

objective: to validate the ethno-therapeutic claim of the traditionally used plant jasminum auriculatum (j. auriculatum) in skin diseases, by evaluating its wound healing potential along with its antioxidant and antimicrobial properties; so as to understand their role in wound healing. materials and methods: excision and incision wound models were used to evaluate the wound healing activity on ...

OBJECTIVES Nylon sutures and skin staples are used commonly in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) surgical wound closure. However, there is no study that compares the wound healing efficacy and patient satisfaction scores of both techniques in the same knee. METHODS We randomised 70 patients who underwent primary TKA into two groups. In one group of 34 patients, the skin at the upper half of the w...

BACKGROUND For the noncolonized wound, achieving tension-free, primary wound closure is ideal. Some surgeons advocate imbrication of deeper tissues rather than undermining, posing that imbrication preserves more dermal perfusion while still reducing tension at the wound edge. We sought to determine which technique most reliably reduced wound tension while preserving dermal wound perfusion. ME...

Objective Management of patients with full thickness wound of skin continues to challenge physicians and surgeons in area of cosmetic dermatologic surgery. At the present time, there are some medications and procedures that can be used to accelerate the healing of full thickness wound of skin. Based on studies that have demonstrated improved upper eyelid wound healing with OCA (octyl-2-cyanoacr...

Cutaneous wound-healing disorders are a major health problem that requires the development of innovative treatments. Whithin this context, the search for reliable human wound-healing models that allow us to address both mechanistic and therapeutic matters is warranted. In this study, we have developed a novel invivo wound-healing model in a genetically modified human context. Our model is based...
