摘要:Background and Aim: Natural topical products have been used to enhance wound healing, especially in immunocompromised animals. The aims of this study were to evaluate and to compare the effects of moist exposed burn ointment (MEBO) and honey on the healing of full-thickness skin wounds in immunocompromised dogs. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted using 12 adults, apparently healthy mongrel dogs. Immunosuppression was induced in six dogs by oral administration of prednisone (2 mg/kg) and azathioprine (2 mg/kg), once a day for 21 days. On each dog, a total of 9, 1.5 cm in diameter full-thickness skin circular wounds were created aseptically in the thoracolumbar area under general anesthesia using customized skin punch biopsy kit. In a random fashion, three wounds in each dog were treatment using MEBO (contains b-sitosterol, baicalin, and berberine as active ingredients in a base of beeswax and sesame oil), honey or no treatment (control), once per day for 21 days. Wounds were grossly evaluated once a day for signs of inflammation or infection. In addition, biopsy specimens and digital imaging data of each wound were obtained on days 7, 14, and 21 for histopathological evaluation of the healing process. Results: Wounds in immunocompromised dogs appeared to heal significantly in a slower fashion than in non-immunocompromised counterparts. Digital analysis data showed that MEBO-treated wounds expressed better epithelialization area, faster contraction, and smaller wound area percentage when compared with honey-treated wounds. Histopathological analysis showed significantly higher angiogenesis scores in MEBO-treated wounds when compared with other treatments. Conclusion: Results of this study showed that MEBO resulted in significant enhancement of wound healing in both healthy and immunocompromised dogs. However, when compared to honey, the wound healing effect of MEBO was superior to that of honey.
摘要:Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) is a rare condition that was described by Lyell in 1956. It is a severe, acute, adverse, primarily drug-induced, potentially fatal, cutaneous reaction that is characterized by large areas of skin desquamation and sloughing, similar in many aspects to second-degree burns. The treatment of cutaneous drug reactions rests essentially on immediate diagnosis and recognition of the disease process, accurate history, thorough physical examination, prompt discontinuation of the offending drug, and supportive care. TEN patients are best managed in specialized burn units. Nevertheless, the management remains very much individualized, based on the clinical setting. Topical wound care remains an essential factor in the treatment of burn-like syndromes and is a main determining parameter for morbidity and mortality. As the value of moist environment in wound healing is being fully appreciated, we report on the use of a newly introduced ointment, the Moist Exposed Burn Ointment (Julphar; Gulf Pharmaceutical industries, Ras El-Khaymah, United Arab of Emirutes), a moisture-retentive ointment, in the successful management of a case of TEN.
摘要:Topical treatment for facial burns, Review question, We reviewed the evidence about the effects of topical (applied to the surface of the skin) treatments for healing burn wounds on the face or neck. We wanted to find out which treatments were most effective at healing these wounds and improving the appearance of scars, which is a particularly important issue in relation to facial burn injuries. We also wanted to find out how topical treatments affected the risk of complications such as infection and pain, and how they impacted on peoples' quality of life., Background, Burn injuries are an important health problem, and a major global cause of disability and disfigurement in both adults and children. Women and children in low‐income countries are at particular risk. Burns pose particular problems when they occur on the head or neck. The face is central to a person's identity and plays a vital role in communication. Other basic functions such as hearing, smell and breathing may become affected as a direct result of a facial burn. Topical treatments such as (non) antimicrobial creams and skin substitutes, are most commonly used to treat facial burns. We wanted to compare the effectiveness of these treatments to evaluate their benefits and harms., Study characteristics, In December 2019, we searched for randomised controlled trials (RCTs) investigating topical treatments for facial burns. RCTs are medical studies where the treatment or care people receive is chosen at random. This type of study design provides the most reliable health evidence about whether different approaches to treatment or care can make a difference. We found 12 studies that were suitable for inclusion in this review update, with 507 participants with mean ages ranging from 5.3 to 41.9 years. Three studies compared antimicrobials with non‐antimicrobials agents, two studies compared different antimicrobials, four studies compared skin substitutes with antimicrobials, while four studies compared a variety of topical treatments. One study contributed to two comparisons. Eight studies were small (fewer than 40 participants) and almost all studies were at high risk of bias due to lack of blinding (where participants and evaluators may have known which group the participants were allocated to and interpreted effects differently)., Key results, Overall, there is mainly low to very low‐certainty evidence on the effects of any topical intervention on wound healing or infection in people with facial burns. In addition, there is low to very low‐certainty evidence on the effects of the included interventions on need for surgery, pain, scar quality, patient satisfaction, length of hospital stay and side effects., All results were at high risk of bias and varied, which may have exaggerated the effects., Certainty of the evidence, Overall, the certainty of the evidence about the effectiveness of topical treatments for facial burns is low to very low. There is insufficient reliable evidence as to whether topical treatments improve outcomes for people with facial burns including improving wound healing, or rates of infection. Better trial design and reporting of these studies is required to contribute to evidence‐based burn care., How up to date is this review?, We searched for studies that had been published up to December 2019.
