Rapid Fabrication of Polyvinyl Alcohol Hydrogel Foams With Encapsulated Mesenchymal Stem Cells for Chronic Wound Treatment.

J Biomed Mater Res A

January 2025

Biomedical and Chemical Engineering and BioInspired Syracuse: Institute for Material and Living Systems, Syracuse University, Syracuse, New York, USA.

Chronic wounds present a major healthcare challenge around the world, and significant hurdles remain in their effective treatment due to limitations in accessible treatment options. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) with multifunctional differentiation and modulatory properties have been delivered to chronic wounds to enhance closure but have limited engraftment when delivered without a scaffold. In this study, hybrid porous hydrogel foams composed of modified polyvinyl alcohol and gelatin were developed that are suitable for rapid and facile MSC encapsulation, fully degradable, and supportive of wound healing.

Aims: It is unclear if a supportive bandage, removable splint, or walking cast offers the best outcome following low-risk ankle fractures in children. The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of a randomized controlled trial to compare these treatments.

Methods: Children aged five to 15 years with low-risk ankle fractures were recruited to this feasibility trial from 1 February 2020 to 30 March 2023.

Herein, we developed a multifunctional bacterial cellulose-based dressing (PHBC) modified by quaternized chitosan (HACC) along with protocatechuic acid (PA), through in situ biosynthesis combined with covalent immobilization. The obtained PHBC dressing maintained the excellent physicochemical characteristics of BC, such as high porosity (above 76 %); high water absorption ratio, >80 % of water absorption rate (approximately 30 g/g) has completed in half an hour; favorable hydrophilicity with contact angle of about 50° and excellent flexibility. The introduction of PA-grafted HACC endows exhibited outstanding antibacterial properties against, anti-inflammatory performance and antioxidant capacity.

Non-restraint in pediatric ankle sprain: a non-inferiority randomized clinical trial.

Eur J Pediatr

December 2024

Departamento de Salud Pública y Materno-Infantil, Facultad de Medicina, Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Madrid, Spain.

Ankle sprains are common injuries in pediatric populations, yet current literature lacks consensus on optimal management strategies. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of non-restraint treatment versus bandaging in children with mild ankle sprains, focusing on functional recovery and pain management.A single-center, open-label, non-inferiority randomized clinical trial was conducted at a pediatric emergency service.
