Objective: To provide an overview of sensors incorporated into wound dressings that can be used to assess and manage healing parameters.
Data Sources: Authors conducted an extensive literature search of the Science Direct, Scopus, MEDLINE-PubMed, and Web of Science databases.
Study Selection: A total of 587 studies that evaluated dressings used to manage wound healing parameters were identified in the search, but only 16 met all of the review criteria and were included in the final analysis.
Article Synopsis
- Carvacrol has shown significant therapeutic potential in various in vitro studies, indicating its effectiveness against multiple diseases.
- A systematic review was conducted, analyzing studies from reputable databases, resulting in 31 relevant studies out of an initial 3,269.
- The identified properties of carvacrol include antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, antioxidant, and others, confirming its diverse pharmacological effects.
Article Synopsis
- * The review analyzed patents for treatments of smoke inhalation, identifying 14 in Espacenet, 25 in WIPO, and none in USPTO, highlighting a gap in patent reviews for these treatments.
- * The expert opinion emphasizes the need for more comprehensive research and development of both natural and synthetic products for treating inhalation injuries, as prior reports lack a consolidated review of available patents.
Background: Burns are a global public health problem, and non-fatal burn injuries are a leading cause of morbidity. The scale of the problem has led researchers to seek to develop new prod- ucts (both synthetic and natural) for use in the treatment of burn lesions.
Objective: The aim of this study was to examine all patents in databases between 2010 and 2015 related to natural prod- ucts for the treatment of burn-related wounds that targeted tissue repair and healing.
Background: The inhalation injury is usually initiated by uninhibited absorption of smoke, favoring the release of cytokines and other lipid mediators from inflammatory cells in lung airways and parenchyma.
Objectives: To systematically review, examine, and synthesize the main inflammatory mediators analyzed in published studies in animals subjected to smoke inhalation, as well as oxidative stress.
Search Strategy: A comprehensive literature search was conducted through MEDLINE-PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus.
