Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A mouse model of lymphedema after inguinal lymphadenectomy with a skin would at the same site was created to examine the influences of the condition. Honey, and estrogen as a female hormone on would healing were examined. The following findings were obtained: the influence of lymphedema on the wound healing remained unclear, as lymphedema did not persist; the effect of honey on the third-degree burn was poor; estrogen positively affected wound healing in elderly and malnourished mice; and a plasma jet generated by applying a high voltage to argon gas was also suggested to promote would healing.
