A “Hot Spring” Mimetic Aerogel Loaded with Multiple Amino Acids Modulates the Chronic Inflammatory Microenvironment Through Metabolic Reprogramming

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The SrCuSi4O₁₀ bioceramic particles mimic the effects of hot spring therapy by increasing the local wound temperature, which enhances the absorption of amino acids and stimulates cell metabolism. The amino acid uptake supports cellular glutathione redox reactions, helping to mitigate oxidative stress.

Physicochemical and Mechanical Characterization of Commercial Collagen‐Based Wound Dressings

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Commercial collagen‐based wound dressings are systematically compared to reveal how porous architecture governs hydration‐driven swelling and mechanical adaptation. Distinct structure–function relationships are identified, showing that wet‐state elasticity and conformability emerge from material composition and processing rather than manufacturer ...

A comparative study of regular dressing versus negative dressing in management of patients with diabetic foot

Advances in Human Biology
Introduction: Diabetes is prevalent in 10% of the population worldwide. 2.5% of diabetic patients develop diabetic foot ulcers every year. Negative dressing therapy, foam dressing and conventional dressing are common modalities for managing diabetic foot.
