Wound healing potential of silver nanoparticles from on rats.

In this study, we green synthesized silver nanoparticles (Ag Nps) from leaves (HE-Ag NPs) and evaluated their antimicrobial and wound-healing properties. The synthesized HE-Ag NPs were characterized using various techniques, revealing face-centered polygonal structures, a well-dispersed appearance, and an average particle size of 42-51 nm. The antimicrobial effects of HE-Ag NPs and their embedded cotton fabrics were tested against several pathogens, showing effective inhibition of growth.

Fabrication of pH-stimuli hydrogel as bioactive materials for wound healing applications.

Hydrogels exhibit exceptional suitability as wound dressing due to their remarkable three-dimensional (3D) characteristics. Here, we have reported the fabrication of hydrogels from biopolymers carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), and gelatin via a simple blending method to mimic the natural extracellular matrix. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), water contact meters (WCM), and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) were used to evaluate the chemical structural, morphological, and wettability behavior.

An autoregressive integrated moving average and long short-term memory (ARIM-LSTM) hybrid model for multi-source epidemic data prediction.

The COVID-19 pandemic has far-reaching impacts on the global economy and public health. To prevent the recurrence of pandemic outbreaks, the development of short-term prediction models is of paramount importance. We propose an ARIMA-LSTM (autoregressive integrated moving average and long short-term memory) model for predicting future cases and utilize multi-source data to enhance prediction performance.

Research on the damage characteristics of rock masses based on double guide-hole blasting under high in-situ stress.

In complex high in-situ stress conditions, how to achieve the ideal rock blasting effect through effective methods is often a difficult point of blasting operations. This paper analyzes the influence of guide holes on blasting effect by adding guide holes to the rock pre-treatment method. Based on the particle expansion method to carry out double-hole blasting experiments, the influence of the blasthole spacing and ground stress on the blasting effect is investigated from the levels of macroscopic cracking effect, microscopic particle contact and so on.

NF-YA promotes invasion and angiogenesis by upregulating EZH2-STAT3 signaling in human melanoma cells.

The process of angiogenesis is essential for tumor development and metastasis. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), which is overexpressed in most human cancers, has been demonstrated to be a major modulator of angiogenesis. Thus, inhibition of VEGF signaling has the potential for tumor anti-angiogenic therapy.

[The application of delayed skin grafting combined traction in severe joint cicatricial contracture].

Objective: To investigate the effect of delayed skin grafting combined traction in severe joint cicatricial contracture.

Methods: At the first stage, the joint cicatricial contracture was released completely with protection of vessels, nerves and tendons. The wound was covered with allogenetic skin or biomaterials.

Tanshinone IIA pretreatment renders free flaps against hypoxic injury through activating Wnt signaling and upregulating stem cell-related biomarkers.

Partial or total flap necrosis after flap transplantation is sometimes clinically encountered in reconstructive surgery, often as a result of a period of hypoxia that exceeds the tolerance of the flap tissue. In this study, we determine whether tanshinone IIA (TSA) pretreatment can protect flap tissue against hypoxic injury and improve its viability. Primary epithelial cells isolated from the dorsal skin of mice were pretreated with TSA for two weeks.

Tanshinone IIA pretreatment protects free flaps against hypoxic injury by upregulating stem cell-related biomarkers in epithelial skin cells.

Background: Partial or total flap necrosis after flap transplantation is sometimes encountered in reconstructive surgery, often as a result of a period of hypoxia that exceeds the tolerance of the flap tissue. The purpose of this study was to determine whether Tanshinone IIA (TSA) pretreatment can protect flap tissue against hypoxic injury and improve its viability.
