background: honey has been shown to accelerate wound healing, which is especially important in the management of patients with full-thickness wounds of skin in dermatologic surgeries.   objective: to evaluate the effects of honey in accelerating healing of full-thickness skin wounds in mice.   methods: two groups of male nmri mice (n=12) were subjected to full-thickness skin wounds under genera...

introduction: : low level laser therapy (lllt) is gaining acceptance in clinical applications. for example, it is used as therapeutic modality in the repair of diabetic foot ulcer when conventional therapy was not effective, separately. the aim of this study is to determine the effect of local and travenous lllt for the healing of diabetic foot ulcer. methods:   this study contains 74 diabetic ...

Iranian Traditional Medicine (ITM) manuscripts contain prescriptions that have long been used for healing of wounds. The present study evaluates the healing effect of a poly herbal paste (PHP), retrieved from ITM sources, containing Aloe vera, Commiphora myrrha and Boswellia carteri using rat excision wound model. Excision wounds were induced in six groups consisting of six rats each. Group 1 r...

Wound healing in the oral cavity occurs in a bacteria-rich environment, which may affect its outcome. Furthermore, it takes place where forces are frequently applied to the healing tissue. The effect of bacterial endotoxin on the development of tensile strength in healing wounds was studied using surgical skin wounds in rats as a model. Collagen membranes soaked with 0.01 microg of bacterial en...

Burns expose the deeper tissues of the skin or body to invasive microbes. Topical preparations for treating burn wounds, to be useful, should ideally have antibiotic power and promote healing. Silver compounds have been the mainstay of topical burn treatment for decades. However, most chemical substances retard wound healing. Several natural agents such as honey and moist exposed burn ointment ...

Diabetic non-healing wounds are a major clinical problem. The mechanisms leading to poor wound healing in diabetes are multifactorial but unresolved inflammation may be a major contributing factor. The complement system (CS) is the most potent inflammatory cascade in humans and contributes to poor wound healing in animal models. Signal transducer and activator of transcription 4 (STAT4) is a tr...

BACKGROUND Aloe vera is a cactus-like perennial succulent belonging to the Liliaceae Family that is commonly grown in tropical climates. Animal studies have suggested that Aloe vera may help accelerate the wound healing process. OBJECTIVES To determine the effects of Aloe vera-derived products (for example dressings and topical gels) on the healing of acute wounds (for example lacerations, su...
