However, its relationship with clinical pain, particularly acute pain in pediatric burn patients, has not been well established. Pediatric burn pain is a dynamic clinical condition influenced by both the burn injury itself and repeated painful procedures, and objective biological measures that complement clinical pain assessment may contribute to a better understanding of its underlying mechanisms.\n\nThis study is designed to investigate the potential relationship between PNX levels and pain in pediatric burn patients by evaluating PNX in both blood and urine. Three clinically distinct populations will be assessed: children in the acute phase of second-degree burn injury with pain at the time of assessment, children with a history of burn injury at least three months previously who are beyond the acute burn and procedural pain period, and age-similar healthy children without acute pain or a history of burns. This design will allow PNX levels observed during acute burn-related pain to be interpreted in comparison with both the post-acute burn period and a population without burn injury or acute pain.\n\nPNX measurements will be evaluated together with age-appropriate clinical pain scores and burn-related characteristics, including total body surface area. Blood and urine PNX levels will also be examined in relation to each other. The study is exploratory and is intended to generate preliminary clinical evidence regarding the potential role of PNX as a pain-related biological marker rather than to establish PNX as a validated diagnostic biomarker for pain.","The study population will consist of pediatric participants prospectively recruited at Ankara Bilkent City Hospital. The acute burn group will include children with acute second-degree burn injuries who are being followed and treated in the pediatric burn intensive care unit. The chronic burn group will consist of children with a previous burn injury, with at least three months elapsed since the burn, who are evaluated during follow-up after the acute phase. The healthy control group will consist of children without a history of burn injury who are evaluated at the same institution. Eligible participants will be consecutively enrolled from the relevant clinical units during the study period. The three groups will constitute the source population for the comparative evaluation of blood and urine phoenixin levels and their relationship with pain and burn-related clinical characteristics.",[33,36,39],{"label":34,"type":26,"description":35,"interventionNames":26},"1.
