In the present paper, the bioheat equation under fractional derivatives is used to study the thermal damage within the skin tissue during the thermal therapy. Basically, the analytical solutions in the Laplace domain are easily obtainable. The influences of the fractional derivative and moving heat source velocity on the temperature of skin tissues and the thermal injuries are precisely investigated. The outcomes show that the fractional bioheat model are reduced to the hyperbolic and parabolic bioheat models when the fractional order parameter is equal to one and the relaxation time is close to zero respectively. The thermal injuries to the tissue are assessed by the denatured protein range using the formulation of Arrhenius. The numerical outcomes of thermal injuries and temperatures are graphically introduced. In conclusion, a parametric analysis is devoted to the identification of an appropriate procedure for selecting important design variables to reach effective heating in hyperthermia treatment.

Chronic pain is a debilitative disease affecting 1 in 5 adults globally, and is a major risk factor for anxiety (Goldberg and McGee, 2011; Lurie, DI., 2018). Given the current dearth of available treatments for both individuals living with chronic pain and mental illnesses, there is a critical need for research into the molecular mechanisms involved in order to discover novel treatment targets.

Introduction: Arterialized venous flap, like any other flap, will undergo an ischemic reperfusion injury during its transfer process. To overcome this, ischemic preconditioning can be done to provide protection and enhanced flap survival. One of the reliable parameters of flap survival is its temperature.

Severe burn injuries are among the most traumatic and physically debilitating conditions, impacting nearly every organ system and resulting in considerable morbidity and mortality. Given their complexity and the involvement of multiple organs, various animal models have been created to replicate different facets of burn injury. Methods used to produce burned surfaces vary among experimental animal models.

In wildland firefighting, the air gap (AG) between clothing and the human body can effectively decrease heat transferred to skin but has a negative impact on thermal aging of clothing. Heat transfer to skin from a fire source can led to burn injuries and heat is transmitted between adjacent AGs parallel to the skin surface. An open AG simulator was developed to explore the dual effects of the AG on fabric thermal aging and skin thermal protection.
