Purpose: The aim of this scoping review was to evaluate the wound healing indices available in literature and propose a new intra-oral wound healing index to assess the healing of palatal mucosa.
Materials And Methods: A PubMed database search was conducted to identify relevant studies using the search strategy: ('Oral Wound healing') OR ('Palatal tissue healing') OR ('Healing indices in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery') OR ('Palatal wound healing') OR ('Complications in wound healing'). A qualitative and quantitative synthesis of the results was done and data was presented following the PRISMA-ScR guidelines.
Results: The search resulted in 9 articles published between 2019 and 2022, which were eligible for inclusion in the study. The data revealed that the indices currently available for the assessment of intra-oral healing were limited and primarily concerned with the assessment of gingival and periodontal tissues.
Conclusion: The healing indices devised for gingival and periodontal tissues cannot be applied to palatal healing due to the differences in clinical and histological aspects. Therefore, a new index to monitor the healing response specifically for the soft tissues in the palate has been proposed. This maybe particularly useful in cleft palate repair and other procedures performed over the palatal tissues.

Atherosclerosis is one of the leading causes of ischemic cardiovascular disease worldwide. Recent studies indicated that vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) play an indispensable role in the progression of atherosclerosis. Exosomes derived from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have demonstrated promising clinical applications in the treatment of atherosclerosis.

Although the role of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) and human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSC) in accelerating diabetic wound healing has been proven, their synergistic effect is still debated. This study aimed to evaluate the individual and combined effects of LLLT and hADSC on wound healing and on biomechanical parameters in type 2 diabetic rabbits. In this experimental study, 40 rabbits with type 2 diabetes (induced by streptozotocin (STZ)) were included.

The area of wound healing presents a promising field of interest for clinicians as well as the scientific community. A major concern for physicians is the rising number of elderly people suffering from diabetes, leprosy, tuberculosis and the associated chronic wounds. While traditional therapies target basic wound care, innovative strategies that accelerate wound healing are needed.

Chinese herbal medicine (CHM) has offered a great treasure and source of inspiration for developing innovative medicinal materials and therapy. In this work, inspired by the macroscopic compatibility of and in CHM, the puerarin (PUE) and CaSO (Ca) as the main constituents, respectively, from the two herbs are co-assembled into two-component molecular hydrogels. Such two-component gels exhibited enhanced mechanical properties compared with the single-component PUE gel due to the introduction of crosslinking hydrogen bonds between PUE and Ca.
