First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether applying insulin directly to skin sores helps them heal faster in people with pemphigus vulgaris, a rare autoimmune blistering disease. Twenty patients each had three similar sores treated with either long-acting insulin, short-acting insulin, or a saltwater control for 14 days. The goal was to see which treatment led to the quickest healing.
