Background: Wound gnawing and/or scratching in rats often occurs in experimental models, causing suture breakage and wound dehiscence, and consequently affecting experimental results and wasting resources. This study aimed to investigate the impact of the combined postoperative use of the Allgower-Donati (A-D) suture pattern and sweet foods on suture breakage, inflammation, and healing in wounds. Materials and methods: Sprague Dawley (SD) rats (n = 48) were treated for linear wounds on the back by four procedures: simple suture, simple suture with postoperative sweet foods, A-D suture, and A-D suture with postoperative sweet foods. Additionally, CD68 immunofluorescence and CD31 immunohistochemistry were used to analyze wound inflammation and vascularization, respectively, on postoperative day 7. Sirius red staining was used to assess collagen deposition on postoperative day 14. Results: Gnawing and scratching of wound sutures were significantly reduced in treated rats (P |
