Feeling the Heat. Mapping the Epigenetic Modifications of Histone during Burn Wound Healing.
Article in Journal of burn care & research : official publication of the American Burn Association, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Burn injuries are observed throughout a wide range of ages, with over 1.1 million Americans suffering burns yearly, and half of these require hospitalization. Epigenetic modifications are fast-acting mechanisms that allow the human body to respond and adapt to environmental changes, including burn injuries. There is a lack of understanding of the epigenetic role during burn-induced tissue repair. Here, we characterize the histone modifications that follow burn injury, aiming at future pharmacological intervention using drugs capable of targeting epigenetic events. A clinically relevant porcine burn model was used to recapitulate the skin healing process after the burn. Isolated skin tissues at different time points were used to detect the acetylation levels of histones H3K27, H4K5, H4K8, and H4K12 as significant players of gene transcription using MetaXpress High-Content Imaging Analysis. We observed that the acetylation of histones is dynamically adjusted throughout healing, and its modifications are uniquely expressed according to the anatomical location and time of healing. We also observed that histone H4K5 is the most widely expressed during healing, followed by histone H3K27. We observed that histones expressed in intact skin tissue adjacent to the burn site could sense the burn injury by changing its histone acetylation pattern compared to control skin from uninjured and distant skin. Using a clinically relevant animal model, we have generated a comprehensive landscape of epigenetic modifications during burn healing. Our data will help us identify novel epi-drugs capable of manipulating histone modifications during healing to accelerate the healing process.
