So there is the patina of an intellectual claim allowing a priori dismissal of religious truth claims — «all truth is relative» — there is the moral claim that seeks to silence and exclude — «if you affirm
objective truth
then you are perforce intolerant and therefore immoral» — combined with the easy - going neglect in
daily life of the implications of the first two currents.
Suction blister wounds are an excellent model for studying the effects of early wound healing.50 Measurement of the rate of transepidermal water loss (TEWL) through human skin provides a noninvasive method to monitor changes in the stratum corneum barrier function of the skin, providing an excellent
objective method for evaluation of wound healing.51 The 8 blister sites were assessed
daily for 8 days following removal of the blister chambers50 and
then again on day 12, along with
daily control values from adjacent nonwounded skin; after subtracting the average control values from the average
daily measurement, the 90 % standard for healing was based on reaching 90 % of the day 1 measures.
