The effect of Triiodothyronine (T3) was evaluated in the healing of deep dermal burns and marginal scars of skin grafts in a group of 20 male Sprague‐Dawley rats versus a control series. Histologic examination revealed obvious differences, characterized by better organization of collagen bundles, fewer retraction spaces and smoother scars in the T3 treated group.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
