Methodology
Double-blind randomised trial of pantothenic acid plus ascorbic acid supplementation on surgical wound healing with biomechanical and biochemical endpoints.
Key Findings
Supplementation raised blood pantothenate levels but produced no clinically meaningful improvement in wound healing strength.
Conclusions
Pantothenic acid supplementation did not improve wound healing outcomes in this controlled trial.
Limitations
Older trial, combined intervention, modest sample.
Supplements Studied
Supplementation raised blood pantothenate levels without clinically meaningful improvement in wound healing.
Outcomes Measured
Supplementation raised blood pantothenate levels but produced no clinically meaningful improvement in wound healing strength.
