Wound infection is a major problem faced during wound healing. Therefore, it is necessary to develop wound dressings with excellent antimicrobial properties. Here, a smart response system of PVA-TPE/HA-AMP/SF/ALG wound dressing was prepared by a combination of chemical cross-linking and freeze-drying methods. We grafted AMP onto HA to endow the wound dressing with bacterial resistance and slow release of AMP. At the same time, the system detects bacterial activity in real time for precise antimicrobial activity (through the use of PVA-TPE) and modulates inflammation to reduce bacterial infection (through the use of AMP). In addition, the PVA-TPE/HA-AMP/SF/ALG wound dressing has a good three-dimensional mesh structure, which promotes cell proliferation, enhances collagen deposition and angiogenesis, and thus effectively promotes rapid healing of infected wounds. Moreover, it can induce the expression of inflammatory factors such as VEGF, TNF-α, IFN-γ, IL-4 and TGF-β1 in infected wounds through the Wnt/CAMK/p-PKC signaling pathway, inhibit inflammatory responses, promote wound healing and reduce scar formation. Therefore, the PVA-TPE/HA-AMP/SF/ALG wound dressing smart response system shows great promise in infected wound healing.

Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) represents a significant public health issue, with a rising global prevalence and severe potential complications including amputation. Traditional treatments often fall short due to various limitations such as high recurrence rates and extensive resource utilization. This editorial explores the innovative use of acellular fish skin grafts as a transformative approach in DFU management.

Objective: Chronic wounds are a common clinical problem that necessitate the exploration of novel regenerative therapies. We report a method to investigate the in vitro wound healing capacity of an innovative biomaterial, which is based on amniotic membrane-derived stem cells (AMSCs) embedded in an alginate hydrogel matrix. The aim of this study was to prepare an sodium alginate-based hydrogel, cross-linked calcium chloride (CaCl with the active ingredient AMSC (AMSC/Alg-H) and to evaluate its in vitro effectiveness for wound closure.

Next-generation wound dressings with multiple biological functions hold promise for addressing the complications and pain associated with burn wounds. A hydrogel wound dressing loaded with a pain-relieving drug was developed for treating infected burn wounds. Polyvinyl alcohol chemically grafted with gallic acid (PVA-GA), sodium alginate chemically grafted with 3-aminobenzeneboronic acid (SA-PBA), Zn, and chitosan-coated borneol nanoparticles with anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving activities were combined to afford a nanoparticle-loaded hydrogel with a PVA-GA/Zn/SA-PBA network crosslinked via multiple physicochemical interactions.

The management of chronic infected wounds remains a significant clinical challenge, largely due to the deficiency of optimal wound dressings with adequate mechanical strength, appropriate adhesiveness, and efficient sustainable antibacterial, reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging, pro-angiogenesis, and immunomodulation properties. To address such a dilemma, we employed a simple and facile strategy to utilize resveratrol (RSV) as a functional component to mediate hydrogel gelation in this study. The structure of this obtained hydrogel was supported by a multibond network, which not only endowed the resultant product with superior mechanical strength and moderate adhesiveness but also effectively prolonged the bioavailability of RSV.

Background: Emergence agitation (EA) occurs in preschool children after ophthalmic surgery as eye shields induce visual disturbance. We aimed to investigate the efficacy of light-transmitting eye shields as an alternative to traditional medical gauze eye shields for wound dressing in terms of EA incidence following strabismus surgery.
Methods: We randomly assigned 70 preschool children undergoing bilateral strabismus surgery to receive either light-transmitting (LT group, n = 35) or medical gauze (MG group, n = 35) eye shields upon the completion of surgery.
