Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on the comprehensive care and research of burn injuries. It covers aspects of patient management, including temporal and meteorological factors influencing burn consultations, the impact of premorbid conditions on recovery, and nutritional status in older adults. The journal also addresses treatment modalities such as pamidronate for hypercalcemia, comparisons of antiseptic agents, and the use of specific therapies like NexoBrid. Research extends to understanding the systemic effects of burns, including immune responses, genomic changes, and intestinal barrier function, as well as long-term outcomes like quality of life and scar management. Furthermore, it examines aspects of burn care delivery, such as the role of specialized centers, data collection tools, workforce well-being, and global participation in burn research.
