New Method for Assessing Epidermal Wound Healing: The Effects of Triamcinolone Acetonide and Polyethelene Film Occlusion
Open accessAbstract
Epidermal healing of superficial, excised wounds in domestic white pigs was evaluated visually and histologically after separation of the epidermis and dermis. The visual determination of epidermal healing correlated well with the histologic studies of surface re-epithelialization. Wounds healed 40% faster when occluded with polyethelene film. Topical triamcinolone acetonide treatment delayed healing (62% slower than control).

Pig skin shares many characteristics with human skin, including similarities in the thickness of skin layers, the types and distribution of skin cells, and the mechanisms of skin repair.
“Pig skin was selected based on the many characteristics it shares with human skin, including similarities in the thickness of skin layers, the types and distribution of skin cells, and the mechanisms of skin repair (15–18).”

Porcine skin serves as an excellent model for studies of wound healing, infection, and skin colonization.
“In light of the similarities to human skin, porcine skin serves as an excellent model for studies of wound healing, infection, and skin colonization (15–18, 25).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
