Experiments were conducted on 26 dogs to study the possibility of debridement of gunshot wounds of the liver and spleen with plasma argon flow. The method was found to be highly effective in providing final hemo- and cholestasis. The elaborated ++plasma coagulation method allows organ-preserving operations to be undertaken and may be recommended for use in field surgery. Analysis of morphological changes in the tissues showed that the wounds of the liver and spleen heal in the usual period of time without coarse cicatricial deformity of the tissues.

The lack of in vivo accurate human liver models hinders the investigation of liver-related diseases, injuries, and drug-related toxicity, posing challenges for both basic research and clinical applications. Traditional cellular and animal models, while widely used, have significant limitations in replicating the liver's complex responses to various stressors. Liver organoids derived from human pluripotent stem cells, adult stem cells primary cells, or tissues can mimic diverse liver cell types, major physiological functions, and architectural features.

Chronic wound healing is often hindered by long-term inflammation and redox imbalance. Herbal medicine, with its rich medicinal components such as polysaccharides, flavonoids, phenolic acids, and small-molecule nutrients, has gained attention for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Xanthium strumarium (XS) is a potent anti-inflammatory herb that has shown promise in treating conditions like rhinitis and may have specific benefits for chronic skin wounds.

Traumatic hemorrhage and infection are major causes of mortality in wounds caused by battlefield injuries, hospital procedures, and traffic accidents. Developing a multifunctional nano-drug capable of simultaneously controlling bleeding, preventing infection, and promoting wound healing is critical. This study aimed to design and evaluate a nanoparticle-based solution to address these challenges effectively.
