Objective To observe the efficacy of infrared irradiation combined with a topical solution of recombinant human epidermal growth factor (rhEGF) in dressing second degree burns. Methods A total of 100 second degree burn cases were divided into a treatment group and a control group using a random number table.The treatment group received infrared irradiation combined with rhEGF topical solution; the control group was given only dressings with pure rhEGF topical solution.Pain was assessed by using the visual analogue scale,the time for wound secretions to completely disappear and wound healing time were assessed in both groups.ResultsPain was less severe in the treatment group,secretions completely stoppedmore quickly and average wound healing time was significantly shortened.The difference between the 2 groups was statistically significant.ConclusionInfrared irradiation combined with rhEGF topical solution can have synergistic effects in shortening the duration of secretions and wound healing time and alleviating pain.The combination is worthy of clinical promotion.

Type B insulin resistance syndrome(TBIR)is a rare autoimmune disease caused by the presence of autoantibodies against insulin receptors in the human body,leading to severe refractory hyperglycemia or refractory hypoglycemia.This article reports a case of TBIR patient,summarizes and analyzes its epidemiological characteristics and diagnosis and treatment methods,providing a basis for clinical treatment.
