The Impact of the Skin Microbiome and Oxidative Stress on the Initiation and Development of Cutaneous Chronic Wounds [PDF]
AntioxidantsWound healing is a very complex process composed of several phases in which precise events occur, both temporally and specially. However, when these processes go awry, biofilm-forming bacteria become installed in the healing tissue, and the patient has ...

Current research on fungi in chronic wounds
Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2023 The occurrence of chronic wounds is a major global health issue. These wounds are difficult to heal as a result of disordered healing mechanisms. The most common types of chronic wounds are diabetic ulcers, pressure ulcers, arterial/venous ulcers and ...

Review: Research progress of adipose-derived stem cells in the treatment of chronic wounds
Frontiers in Chemistry, 2023 Although methods are used to treat wounds clinically, there are still many challenges in the treatment of chronic wounds due to excessive inflammatory response, difficulties in epithelialization, vascularization, and other factors.

Chronic wounds: Treatment consensus [PDF]
Wound Repair and Regeneration, 2022 AbstractThe Wound Healing Foundation (WHF) recognised a need for an unbiased consensus on the best treatment of chronic wounds. A panel of 13 experts were invited to a virtual meeting which took place on 27 March 2021. The proceedings were organised in the sub‐sections diagnosis, debridement, infection control, dressings, grafting, pain management ...

The Impact of Prolonged Inflammation on Wound Healing
Biomedicines, 2022 The treatment of chronic wounds still challenges modern medicine because of these wounds’ heterogenic pathophysiology. Processes such as inflammation, ischemia and bacterial infection play major roles in the progression of a chronic wound.

Advances of hydrogel combined with stem cells in promoting chronic wound healing
Frontiers in Chemistry, 2022 Wounds can be divided into two categories, acute and chronic. Acute wounds heal through the normal wound healing process. However, chronic wounds take longer to heal, leading to inflammation, pain, serious complications, and an economic burden of ...
