Results of treatment of 84 children with purulent and posttraumatic wounds with the help of CO2 laser are analyzed. The laser was used as a "surgical scalpel" and for necrectomy in suppurations. The focused and disfocused laser rays were used. The radiation was shown to exert a favorable effect on tissue regeneration and to accelerate the wound healing.

Background: Neuroinflammation plays an important role in progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Interlukin-6 (IL-6) is well identified marker in initiating and regulating inflammation, and formation of senile plaques in brain. Therefore, simultaneous inhibition of both IL-6 and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) may be an effective strategy for AD.

The major pathological hallmarks of AD include Amyloid Beta (Aβ) plaques and Tau neurofibrillary tangles (NFT). The first goal of this research was to develop novel forms of carbon dots (CD) using various precursors.

Prior data published in the Wang lab suggests that carbon dots (CDs) synthesized from citric acid and urea can inhibit aggregation. We sought to characterize the inhibitory effects of a new class of CDs synthesized from varied ratios of Congo red and citric acid.

The use of metalwork, such as screws and plates, is common in orthopaedic trauma surgery, with a recent trend towards individually packed metalwork owing to concerns about sterilization efficacy and traceability. Despite this, there is no clinical evidence proving clinical risk from repeat sterilization of metalworks used in orthopaedic trauma of either increased infection rates or loosening or implant failure. On the contrary, the use of individually packed metalworks presents several practical challenges, including higher costs, increased risks of contamination, longer operative times and a larger carbon footprint.

Understanding the interplay between gasotransmitters is essential for unlocking their therapeutic potential. However, achieving spatiotemporally controlled co-delivery to target cells remains a significant challenge. Herein, we propose an innovative strategy for the intracellular co-delivery of carbon monoxide (CO) and nitric oxide (NO) gasotransmitters under clinically relevant wavelengths.
