Article Synopsis
- The study examined how an extract from Porophyllum ruderale and laser therapy impact burn healing in rats.
- The research involved 72 rats divided into four groups to compare healing with laser, P. ruderale extract, both, or no treatment.
- Results showed that laser therapy alone improved healing by increasing fibroblasts, collagen, and blood vessels while reducing inflammatory cells, while P. ruderale showed potential anti-inflammatory effects despite not enhancing laser treatment outcomes.

This study evaluated the wound healing activity of hydroalcoholic leaf extract of Oncidium flexuosum Sims. (Orchidaceae), an important native plant of Brazil, combined or not with microcurrent stimulation. Wistar rats were randomly divided into four groups of nine animals: control (C), topical application of the extract (OF), treated with a microcurrent (10 μA/2 min) (MC), and topical application of the extract plus microcurrent (OF + MC).
