Herein, a novel burn wound healing material was developed by new strategy. This strategy involved two steps. In the first step, the cotton gauze fabrics were modified with Quat 188 as cationizing agent. After that, the cationized cotton gauze fabrics were developed via in-situ incorporating of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) and then loaded with oxytetracyline hydrochloride drug to produce the cationized cotton gauze fabrics/Ag NPs/drug (S1). In the second step, chitosan (CS) was reacted with different amount of salicylaldehyde (SA) via Schiff base reaction to produce salicyl-imine-chitosan biopolymer. Then, the salicyl-imine-chitosan biopolymer was coated onto S1. The functional properties of modified cotton gauze fabrics, including the swelling rate capacity %, dehydration rate %, and antimicrobial as well as burn wound healing properties were evaluated. The overall results suggest that, the modified cotton gauze fabrics can be utilized in biomedical textiles as antimicrobial and burn wound healing properties.

The reliable engraftment of skin grafts into areas with complex shapes can be challenging. Here, we report a case of successful fixation of a genital skin graft using negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) with RENASYS Cotton Filler. A 44-year-old male with no relevant medical history underwent split-thickness skin grafting for a genital skin defect caused by Fournier's gangrene.

The FabricSpotDefect dataset is, to the best of our knowledge, the first dataset specifically designed to accurately challenge computer vision in detecting fabric spots. There are a total of 1014 raw images and manually annotated 3288 different categories of spots. This dataset expands to 2300 augmented images after applying six categories of augmentation techniques like flipping, rotating, shearing, saturation adjustment, brightness adjustment, and noise addition.
