Clinical prediction of wound re-epithelisation outcomes in non-severe burn injury using the plasma lipidome

Abstract

Whilst wound repair in severe burns has received substantial research attention, non-severe burns (0.7), whilst high-density lipoprotein subfractions, phosphatidylinositols, phosphatidylcholines, and phosphatidylserines were associated with re-epithelisation at 2 weeks post-surgery (p-value <0.01, Cliffs delta <-0.7). Further model validation will potentially lead to personalised intervention strategies to reduce the risk of chronic complications post-burn injury.
