A review of the safety of sodium‐glucose co‐transporter‐2 inhibitors
Abstract The development of sodium‐glucose co‐transporter‐2 (SGLT2) inhibitors represents a major turning point in the effort to preserve kidney function and prevent cardiovascular events and heart failure hospitalisations in those at high risk. These agents have now transcended their original glucose‐lowering indication and provide a range of clinical

The Effect of Platelet Rich Plasma on Wound Healing in Pressure Ulcer Patient Grade III and IV
ABSTRACT Pressure injury is soft tissue damage caused by persistent mechanical pressure on bony prominences, with incidence rates continuing to rise. To address this issue, platelet‐rich plasma (PRP) is being researched and developed. This study aims to compare the effects of injectable and topical PRP administration on pressure injury healing, using ...

ABSTRACT Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) is a standard treatment for chronic wounds. In 2017, NPWT with instillation and dwell time (NPWTi‐d) was approved for insurance coverage in Japan. This study aimed to identify optimal NPWTi‐d parameter settings for hard‐to‐heal wounds with necrotic tissue.

ABSTRACT Surgical debridement is a common treatment for complex wounds but can present risks for patients. Negative pressure wound therapy with instillation and dwell (NPWTi‐d) using reticulated open cell foam dressings with 1 cm holes (ROCF‐CC) provides hydromechanical wound cleaning and preparation and can be applied outside the operating room at the
