This study compares wound healing characteristics across humans, traditional porcine models, rodent models, and new miniature swine, highlighting that pig skin more closely mirrors human skin in structure and healing by re-epithelialization rather than contraction. It also presents data showing that re-epithelialization rates in miniature swine vary with age and diabetic status, and concludes that miniature swine are a predictive and useful model for human wound healing research.
