What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Time to Reepithelization
Time Frame: up to 8 week
duration from initiation of treatment to the point when skin detachment and erosions were no longer observed (negative Nikolsky's sign). Meanwhile, skin islands started to regenerate and replace the damaged superficial epithelia in local skin or mucous lesions (approximately 20% of the maximum BSA).
up to 8 week

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Adverse events
Time Frame: up to 12 weeks
The common adverse effects associated with treatments including elevated blood pressure, elevated blood glucose, gastrointestinal bleeding, electrolyte disturbance, and mucocutaneous infections were closely monitored during their hospitalization. All patients in both groups were followed up for 4 weeks to monitor the associated adverse effects.
up to 12 weeks
