Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Background: Keloids, pathological scars with complex etiology including genetic predisposition and trauma, remain a therapeutic challenge due to high recurrence rates. This study intends to conduct a retrospective study on the patients who received punch drilling therapy for keloid in our hospital to provide a new method and objective basis for the treatment of keloid. Methods: A retrospective analysis of 13 patients (20 keloids) treated at Dermatology Hospital of Southern Medical University was conducted. Outcomes were assessed using Vancouver Scar Scale (VSS) and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) scores preoperatively and scar image data were collected, alongside complication rates and patient satisfaction surveys. Results: < 0.001). Postoperative complications were minimal, with 95 % of patients reporting marked improvement in scar appearance and satisfaction. Conclusion: The combination of punch drilling, adjuvant radiotherapy, and intralesional steroids injection demonstrates high efficacy in keloid treatment, characterized by low invasiveness, rapid recovery, and reduced recurrence. This protocol provides a promising strategy for refractory keloid management.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
