摘要:目的:观察α-硫辛酸联合MEBO在治疗糖尿病足中的疗效。方法:糖尿病足患者37例,在胰岛素控制血糖的同时用MEBO处理创面,并给予α-硫辛酸600mg静脉滴注,连续三周进行抗氧化治疗。结果:本组37例糖尿病足患者经治疗后,32例溃疡完全愈合出院,5例足部溃疡面积明显缩小。结论:MEBO及α-硫辛酸在治疗糖尿病足中疗效显著。
摘要:BACKGROUND: Thermal tissue injury is partly mediated by reactive oxygen metabolites. Oxygen free radicals are contributory to local tissue damage following thermal injury and accordingly an interventional therapy using antioxidants may be beneficial. Copper nicotinate complex can scavenge reactive oxygen species (i.e., has antioxidant activity). OBJECTIVES: To examine time-related morphological and biochemical changes following skin thermal injury and their modulation by copper nicotinate complex. MATERIALS AND METHODS: An animal model composed of 80 albino rats was established. Ten rats (nonburn group) served as a control group. Seventy rats (burn group) were anesthetized, given a 10% total body surface area, full-thickness burn. Ten rats (from the postburn group) were sacrificed after 24 h (without treatment, i.e., untreated-burn group). The remaining rats were divided into three subgroups (20 rats, each) and were treated topically either with soft paraffin, moist exposed burn ointment (MEBO, a standard therapeutic treatment for burns), or copper nicotinate complex. Five animals from each subgroup were sacrificed every week over a period of 4 weeks. The morphological and biochemical changes were evaluated and compared among the different groups. RESULTS: High levels of the plasma and skin nitiric oxide (marker of oxidative stress) were observed in the untreated-burn group. These levels were significantly low following the application of copper nicotinate complex. Low levels of plasma and skin superoxide dismutase (marker of oxidative stress) and plasma ceruloplasmin were observed in the untreated-burn group. These levels were significantly high following copper nicotinate complex treatment. The total and differential leukocyte counts were low following the onset of the thermal injury. They gradually returned to normal levels over a 4-week period following the application of MEBO or copper nicotinate complex. Compared to untreated-burn group, postburn-healing changes (resolution of the inflammatory reaction, reepithelization of the epidermis, angiogenesis, deposition of collagen fibers, and recovery of the subcellualr organelles) were significantly accelerated following the application of either MEBO or copper nicotinate complex. CONCLUSIONS: Application of copper nicotinate complex was associated with improved healing of the thermal burns of the skin. The underlying molecular changes underlying these effects await further investigations.
摘要:Moist exposed burn ointment (MEBO) is an oil-based herbal paste, purported to be efficacious in managing burn wounds and more commonly used in Asia and the Middle East. A PRISMA-compliant systematic review was performed to analyse the evidence for the use of MEBO on burn wounds. Wound healing rate was the primary outcome of interest. PubMed-listed randomised controlled trials (RCTs) comparing the efficacy of MEBO with placebo, standard care or other therapies in the treatment of partial thickness burns in adults and children were eligible for inclusion (November 2019). Six RCTs were eligible. The majority of trials comparing wound healing between MEBO and SSD favoured MEBO (two of three). There may be improved healing in MEBO-treated wounds vs. those treated with povidone-iodine + bepanthenol cream. There was no difference between MEBO and Acquacel Ag, but Helix Aspersa had faster healing rates than MEBO. However, all evidence was from moderately to poorly reported trials with a high risk of bias, thereby limiting the strength of this evidence. In conclusion, the evidence for MEBO in English-language literature was poor and inconsistent with respect to wound healing rate and analgesis compared to 1% SSD, Acquacel Ag, Helix aspersa cream and povidone-iodine + bepanthenol cream. Blinded RCTs comparing MEBO to both placebo and other common topical treatments may further improve the confidence in concluding their analysis. There is some evidence that MEBO is as safe as its comparators as shown by the low complication rate.
