Filter by:A prospective randomized within-subject controlled study to compare the clinical performance of conventional autografting with and without the RECELL system on acute non-burn full-thickness skin defects.
Introduction- Gun violence represents an important cause of disability to the working age population in South Africa. It has unrecognised, but undoubtedly significant implications for the health service and patients affected by these injuries. Aim- To capture the burden of gunshot injury across South Africa and to establish a network of researchers in this field. Method- A cross-sectional observational study run across South Africa capturing a nationwide picture of burden and complications associated with these injuries. Each centre will participate in a two-week window of patient screening and recruitment. Patients will be followed up at 6 weeks as per routine clinical practice. Data collected will include nature and number of treatments, length of stay, return to work and complications. Results-Outcome of the study will be disseminated to the participating centres, relevant health boards and published with all contributors across centres recognised.
The present research tests the effects of violent shooting games on behavior within the game (Pilot Study) and on behavior after the game is turned off (Experiment Proper). The Experiment Proper is an exact replication of a previous study conducted in our lab that was retracted (see citation), but with a larger sample to get more reliable results (N=287 rather than N=151).
