Honey as a topical treatment for wounds
TL;DR: Honey healed infected post-operative wounds more quickly than antiseptic washes followed by gauze and was associated with fewer adverse events, but it is unclear if there is a difference in rates of adverse events (very low quality evidence) or infection (low quality evidence).
Consort
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the consolidated standards of reporting trials (CSTT) for the first time, and propose a set of guidelines for reporting trials, including the following:
Journal ArticleDOI
Therapeutic Properties of Bioactive Compounds from Different Honeybee Products.
TL;DR: This review is aimed at providing an exhaustive screening of the bioactive compounds detected in honeybee products and of their curative or adverse biological effects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Honey/Chitosan Nanofiber Wound Dressing Enriched with Allium sativum and Cleome droserifolia: Enhanced Antimicrobial and Wound Healing Activity
TL;DR: A preliminary in vivo study revealed that the developed nanofiber mats enhanced the wound healing process as compared to the untreated control as proved by the enhanced wound closure rates in mice and by the histological examination of the wounds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biological properties and therapeutic activities of honey in wound healing: A narrative review and meta-analysis.
TL;DR: Honey improves the outcome of the wound healing by reducing the incidence and excessive scar formation, and application of honey can be an effective and economical approach in managing large and complicated wounds.

Microorganisms in honey.
Jill A. Snowdon,Dean O. Cliver +1 more
TL;DR: The need for additional microbiological data on honey will increase as new technologies for, and uses of honey develop, and more information on the source and control of microbes in honey is needed to answer the concerns currently facing the industry.

Clinical observations on the wound healing properties of honey
TL;DR: Honey debrided wounds rapidly, replacing sloughs with granulation tissue, and promoted rapid epithelialization, and absorption of oedema from around the ulcer margins.
