Morphological changes in distant muscle fibers following thermal injury in Wistar rats Alterações morfológicas das fibras musculares de um músculo distante da lesão térmica em ratos Wistar

PURPOSE: Thermal injury causes catabolic processes as the body attempts to repair the damaged area. This study evaluated the effects of a scald injury on the morphology of muscle fibers belonging to a muscle distant from the lesion. METHODS: Thirty Wistar rats were divided into control (C) and scald...
