The search strategy employed a combination of terms, notably: "topical iron chelation," "transdermal deferoxamine," “topical lactoferrin," “topical deferoxamine,” “skin health," "UV,” “wound healing," "skin inflammation," “wound,” “ulcer,” “skin,” “radiation-induced fibrosis,” and "skin cancer." The following combination was searched: ((topical iron chelation) OR (transdermal deferoxamine) OR (topical lactoferrin) OR (topical deferoxamine)) AND ((skin health) OR (UV) OR (wound healing) OR (skin inflammation) OR (wound) OR (ulcer) OR (skin) OR (radiation-induced fibrosis) OR (skin cancer)). Here, LTF is linked to skin cancer.
