Randomized clinical trial of negative pressure wound therapy as an adjunctive treatment for small‐area thermal burns in children

BJS (British Journal of Surgery), Volume 107, Issue 13, Page 1741-1750, December 2020., 2020
In this RCT, children with small‐area thermal burns were randomized to standard silver‐impregnated dressings or standard dressings in conjunction with continuous negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT). Adjunctive NPWT decreased time to re‐epithelialization, with attendant improvements in dressing change requirements and scar management referrals. There

Dysregulation of the actin scavenging system and inhibition of DNase activity following severe thermal injury

BJS (British Journal of Surgery), Volume 107, Issue 4, Page 391-401, March 2020., 2020
Circulating cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) is not found in healthy subjects but is readily detected after thermal injury and may contribute to the risk of multiple organ failure. The authors hypothesized that a postburn reduction in DNase protein/enzyme activity could contribute to the increase in cfDNA after thermal injury.

Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells: The Present Alternative for High‐Incidence Diseases, Even SARS‐Cov‐2

Stem Cells International, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), defined as plastic adherent cells with multipotent differentiation capacity in vitro, are an emerging and valuable tool to treat a plethora of diseases due to their therapeutic mechanisms such as their paracrine activity, mitochondrial and organelle transfer, and transfer of therapeutic molecules via exosomes.

, 2016
Background and Objective. Early burn scar removal is the standard of care for burn patients; excisional debridement, however, often leads to excision of dermal remnants, making autografting unavoidable.
