Journal ArticleDOI
The physiology of wound healing.
TL;DR: The local mechanisms of repair are depicted with special attention to the means by which physiologic and nutritional support at the clinical level influence repair, even to a point at which wound healing may exceed contemporary expectations.

Formation of the Scab and the Rate of Epithelization of Superficial Wounds in the Skin of the Young Domestic Pig
TL;DR: It has been found that epithelization is retarded by the dry scab which normally covers a superficial wound, and if the formation of the scab is prevented, the rate of epithelized is markedly increased.

Effect of air exposure and occlusion on experimental human skin wounds.
TL;DR: Two parallel studies performed in man demonstrating that an occlusive dressing doubles the rate of wound re-epithelization when compared with wounds exposed to the air are reported.

New Method for Assessing Epidermal Wound Healing: The Effects of Triamcinolone Acetonide and Polyethelene Film Occlusion
TL;DR: The visual determination of epidermal healing correlated well with the histologic studies of surface re-epithelialization and wounds healed 40% faster when occluded with polyethelene film and topical triamcinolone acetonide treatment delayed healing.

A method for the simultaneous measurement of the radioactivity of proline-C14 and hydroxyproline-C14 in biological materials.
TL;DR: The method involves oxidizing both imino acids with chloramine-T and then selectively extracting the oxidation products into toluene and is extremely useful in studying the metabolism of hydroxyproline-containing proteins.
