Massive hemorrhage may be detrimental to the patients, which necessitates the advent of new materials with high hemostatic efficiency and good biocompatibility. The objective of this research was to screen for the effect of the different types of bio-elastomers as hemostatic dressings. 3D loose nanofiber sponges were prepared; PU-TA/Gel showed promising potential. Polyurethane (PU) was synthesized and electrospun to afford porous sponges, which were crosslinked with glutaraldehyde (GA). FTIR and H-NMR evidenced the successful synthesis of PU. The prepared PU-TA/Gel sponge had the highest porosity and water absorption ratio. Besides, PU-TA/Gel sponges exhibited cytocompatibility, negligible hemolysis and the shortest clotting time. PU-TA/Gel sponge rapidly induced stable blood clots with shorter hemostasis time and less bleeding volume in a liver injury model in rats. Intriguingly, PU-TA/Gel sponges also induced good skin regeneration in a full-thickness excisional defect model as revealed by the histological analysis. These results showed that the PU-TA/Gel-based sponges may offer an alternative platform for hemostasis and wound healing.

Background: Hip fracture is common and associated with high morbidity and mortality rates. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) influence platelet hemostasis and might result in abnormal bleeding. This study aims to determine whether the use of SSRIs in older patients undergoing hip fracture surgery is associated with the risk of perioperative red blood cell (RBC) transfusion.

Globally, traumatic injuries and severe hemorrhagic wounds resulting from natural disasters, wars, traffic accidents, and operation rooms, especially during birth, are among the most difficult humanitarian and economic problems. Thus, the priority in emergency medical treatment is reducing unexpected blood loss, which can significantly influence a patient's rescue and recovery speed. For the immediate cessation of bleeding in severe hemorrhagic wounds and to speed up their healing, environmentally friendly γ-ionizing irradiation technology was used to develop innovative natural-based hydrogels impregnated with traditional medicinal plant extracts (MPE) with proven hemostatic and bactericidal potential as potential dressings for hemostasis, infection control, and wound healing.

Exosomal non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), including miRNAs, lncRNAs, and circRNAs, have emerged as crucial modulators in cellular signaling, influencing wound healing processes. Stem cell-derived exosomes, which serve as vehicles for these ncRNAs, show remarkable therapeutic potential due to their ability to modulate wound healing stages, from initial inflammation to collagen formation. These ncRNAs act as molecular signals, regulating gene expression and protein synthesis necessary for cellular responses in healing.

Spiders of the genus represent a public health problem in Brazil due to the severity of the cutaneous and systemic effects that may result from their bite. In the systemic form of loxoscelism, hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and disseminated intravascular coagulation can occur. Despite the seriousness of accidents, the venom of some species has not yet been properly characterized considering these hemotoxic effects, such as that of , , and .

Irregularly shaped wounds cause severe chronic infections, which have attracted worldwide attention due to their high prevalence and poor treatment outcomes. In this study, we designed a new composite functional dressing consisting of traditional Chinese herb carbonized plant powder (CPP) and a polyacrylic acid (PAA)/polyethylenimine (PEI) gel. The rapid gelation of the dressing within 6-8 s allowed the gel to be firmly attached to an irregularly shaped wound surface and avoided powder detachment.
