The Dhaka Times Desk A study found that day wounds heal faster than night wounds! This information has emerged from a study by the UK's MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology.
A study found that wounds made during the day heal much faster than those made at night.
Studies have shown that nighttime burns take an average of 28 days to heal. On the other hand, it took only 17 days to heal such a wound during the day.
A group of researchers from the UK's MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology said they were really surprised by the differences they found after studying 118 burn patients. It is said that the difference in recovery time between people injured during the night and during the day is on average 11 days.
The researchers say this result is explained by the way the body clock works on a 24-hour cycle in each human cell. The study was published recently in Science Transnational Medicine after testing 118 patients at England's National Health Service (NHS) burn units.
Detailed tests in the laboratory show that the activity of skin cells called fibroblasts changes in a 24-hour pattern. Fibroblasts are the first responders in the body, which rush to the site of injury to heal the wound. While they respond appropriately during the day, they lose this ability at night.
One of the researchers in this regard, Dr. "It's like a 100m race," says John O'Neill. A runner who positions himself at the starting block on his track and is ready to run, always beats the one who starts running from a standing position.”
The researchers believe that the results of their research can be used in the field of surgery. Through this it will be possible to prescribe the right dose of medicine and therapy for the patients.
