Effective wound healing requires biocompatible and functional wound dressings. This study explores the synergistic potential of gellan gum (GG), known for its exceptional gel-forming abilities, and acacia stingless bee honey (SBH), for its potent antioxidant properties, in developing advanced wound care solutions. GG hydrogel films incorporated with varying concentrations of SBH (v/v) at 10 % (GGSBH10), 15 % (GGSBH15), and 20 % (GGSBH20) were characterized.

Background: Traumatic injuries have increased risks for infection and progression to difficult-to-heal wounds. Often, they are inadequately treated with single-purpose dressings. Involving wound care specialists allows for integrating various advanced wound treatments.

Keratitis-ichthyosis-deafness syndrome (KID) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by the triad of hyperkeratosis, ichthyosis, and congenital prelingual sensorineural deafness, with less than 100 cases described in the literature. In addition to many other extra-cutaneous manifestations, these patients are burdened by two principal increased risk factors involving the skin: the risk of developing infections and the risk of developing malignant skin tumors, especially Squamous Cell Carcinoma and Trichilemmal tumors. We present the case of a 7-year-old girl with a unique genetic variant described to date, who developed 4 dyskeratotic neoformation.

Treatment of diabetic foot is challenging due to the complex pathophysiological mechanisms, various clinical manifestations, severe complications with considerable impairment of quality of life, and the need for special, individualized treatment strategies. Particularly in the case of diabetic foot ulcers, conventional therapies are not always effective, so new treatment strategies are needed. This review aims to present alternative therapies with current efficacy data for diabetic foot ulcers that may be suitable for treatment-refractory ulcers.

A promising approach for wound treatment is using multilayer wound dressings that offer multifunctional properties. In this study, a bilayered electrospun/hydrogel gelatin-based scaffold integrated with honey and curcumin was developed to treat wounds under an in vivo study. The first layer consisted of an enzymatic cross-linked gelatin hydrogel containing honey and curcumin, which gelatin/PCL nanofibers reinforced.
