An Intelligent and Conductive Hydrogel with Multiresponsive and ROS Scavenging Properties for Infection Prevention and Anti‐Inflammatory Treatment Assisted by Electrical Stimulation for Diabetic Wound

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study introduces a novel therapeutic approach that employs a conductive hydrogel (HEPP) responsive to near‐infrared light, pH levels, and reactive oxygen species. Its goal is to enhance the healing environment affected by elevated glucose levels, insufficient oxygen, and bacterial infections in diabetes‐related wounds.

Osseointegrated prostheses for rehabilitation following amputation : The pioneering Swedish model. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The direct attachment of osseointegrated (OI) prostheses to the skeleton avoids the inherent problems of socket suspension. It also provides physiological weight bearing, improved range of motion in the proximal joint, as well as osseoperceptive sensory ...

Translumbar amputation [PDF]

open access: yesCancer, 1990
Six patients underwent translumbar amputation (TLA), a life-saving procedure, after standard modalities of therapy failed to control the progression of the disease. The primary diagnoses were as follows: pelvic arterial-venous (A-V) malformation, 1; sacral chordoma, 3; giant cell tumor of the sacrum, 1; and paraplegia with squamous cell cancer arising ...

Ultrasound‐Triggered Nanocomposite “Lever” Hydrogels with a Full Repair System Accelerates Diabetic Foot Ulcer Repair

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Ultrasound (US)‐treated nanocomposite ‘lever’ hydrogels reprogrammed wound reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and promoted wound healing in infected diabetic foot ulcers. Abstract Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) are a complex mixture of neuropathy, peripheral arterial disease, and infection, where excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) exacerbates ...

Mechanical Biomimetic Nanocomposites for Multidimensional Treatment of Arterial Thrombosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, a mechanical biomimetic nanocomposite is developed, guided by photoacoustic imaging, to achieve highly efficient and safe thrombolysis through the synergistic effects of photothermal therapy and pharmacological intervention. Most notably, the nanoparticle improves the microenvironment of arterial thrombi, marked by high shear stress and ...
