Risperidone in the treatment of schizophrenia: results of a study of patients from Germany, Austria, and Switzerland

Wound healing is a complex series of highly interdependent and overlapping stages involving a number of cellular processes. Macrophages are pivotal to the healing process, as director cells, but also functioning as phagocytes and debridement agents in addition to producing chemoattractants and growth factors which attract cells necessary for repair and control of wound healing processes. A number of other factors influence wound healing, such as oxygen, the immune system, and corticosteroids.
