Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has become an important regenerative therapy. However, the preparation method of PRP has not been standardized, and the optimal platelet concentration for PRP used in skin wound repair is unclear, leading to inconsistent clinical efficacy of PRP. Therefore, the development of standardized preparation methods for PRP and the investigation of the dose-response relationship between PRP with different platelet concentrations and tissue regeneration plays an important role in the development and clinical application of PRP technology. This study has developed an integrated blood collection device from blood drawing to centrifugation. Response surface methodology was employed to optimize the preparation conditions, ultimately achieving a platelet recovery rate as high as 95.74% for PRP (with optimal parameters: centrifugation force 1730× , centrifugation time 10 min, and serum separation gel dosage 1.4 g). Both in vitro and in vivo experimental results indicate that PRP with a (2×) enrichment ratio is the most effective in promoting fibroblast proliferation and skin wound healing, with a cell proliferation rate of over 150% and a wound healing rate of 78% on day 7.

The study aimed to investigate the factors associated with early necrosis of the finger after reimplantation of broken fingers. Sixty-seven cases of reimplantation of severed fingers in our hospital between January 2023 and December 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients underwent reimplantation of severed fingers and were divided into early necrosis group and non-necrosis group according to the presence or absence of early necrosis of the finger body 7 days after surgery.

Neo-vascularization plays a key role in achieving long-term viability of engineered cells contained in medical implants used in precision medicine. Moreover, strategies to promote neo-vascularization around medical implants may also be useful to promote the healing of deep wounds. In this context, a biocompatible, electroconductive borophene-poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) 3D platform is developed, which is called VOLT, to support designer cells engineered with a direct-current (DC) voltage-controlled gene circuit that drives secretion of vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA).

Negative-pressure wound therapy (NPWT) is used to promote wound closure or to prepare a wound for definite coverage. However, the anatomy of the hand makes it difficult to apply dressings that require an airtight seal. In this report, the authors describe the case of a patient with an extensive defect of his right hand and forearm who was treated with a free fibula osteocutaneous flap transfer.
