- The study analyzed 880 acutely burned patients in Cairo, Egypt, from May 1995 to October 2001 to understand the demographics and characteristics of burn injuries in the region.
- Most patients were city dwellers, with the average age being 27.8 years, predominantly self-referred to the Burn Unit, and showed seasonal peaks in burn cases during winter and spring.
- The findings indicated that women and adults had higher rates of burns, with common locations being home for females and outdoor/work settings for males, highlighting the need for targeted burn prevention strategies.
