🔥 Can burn injury leave a lasting immune footprint years after healing?

A new Burns study found persistent low-grade immune dysregulation in children with hypertrophic scars ~4 years after burn injury. 🧵 1/7

The takeaway:

Years after paediatric burn injury, hypertrophic scar survivors may still show systemic immune activation consistent with chronic low-grade inflammation. 6/7

What drives keloid biology at the molecular level? This multi-omics study asked just that. 1/5

[Burns Journal @BurnsJournal]

The takeaway is that keloids may partly result from disrupted RNA methylation, and PEAR1 and MAPKAPK3 could become new biomarkers and treatment targets. 4/5

New from @csheckter in @BurnsJournal: Recipients of laser therapy for hypertrophic scars differ demographically from the United States inpatient burn population, highlighting disparities shaped by demographic and socioeconomic factors.

🧵Pain after burn injury often continues after hospital discharge. This study followed burn survivors for 14 days post-discharge to understand what predicts lingering pain and found optimism plays a surprising role.

✨ Bottom line: Pain post-discharge is shaped by what happens during hospitalization and how patients think about their recovery. Target both body and mind.
