NPWT significantly increases the suppressed WTAP and m6A levels in DFU patients, correlating directly with better 4‐week healing outcomes. In vitro, negative pressure reverses high‐glucose‐induced WTAP downregulation, restoring the cell proliferation and migration necessary for wound repair.

ABSTRACT Pathologic fracture is a complication of bone cancer with probable increased risk following radiation therapy (RT). Low‐dose‐rate (LDR) RT can spare late‐responding normal tissues by allowing intrafraction DNA repair, which could also impact tumor response. This retrospective cohort study evaluated efficacy and fracture rate in canine patients

Review of Experimental and Clinical Studies of Bovine Foetal Collagen Application
ABSTRACT Soft tissue defects continue to present a significant clinical challenge in plastic and reconstructive surgery. Tissue substitutes, such as dermal matrices, have been used in wound care and reconstructive practices. Specifically, foetal bovine collagen (FBC) based dermal matrices possess unique collagen profiles when compared to other ...
