Article Abstract
Poor wound healing is one of the most common complications after laparotomy, especially in lower abdominal midline incisions. The aims of this trial are to assess the value of subcutaneous suture and identify risk factors to prevent poor wound healing. From October 2010 to October 2011, a total of 180 patients were randomized to the subcutaneous suture group (n = 89) or control group (n = 91) after laparotomy with a lower midline incision. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to determine the predictive significance of variables of poor wound healing. Patients' demographics, preoperative laboratory values, and operative details were comparable between the two groups. The overall rate of poor wound healing was 16.7 per cent (30 of 180). Patients randomized to subcutaneous suture group (n = 89) had poor healing in 10.1 per cent (nine of 89) and those without suture (n = 91) in 23.1 per cent (21 of 91) (P = 0.020). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score (3 to 4) (odds ratio [OR], 2.933), subcutaneous suture (OR, 0.323), and blood loss (greater than 200 mL) (OR, 5.995) were independent risk factors for poor wound healing. Subcutaneous suture can effectively accelerate wound healing. Nonsubcutaneous suture, ASA score (3 to 4), and blood loss (greater than 200 mL) are independent risk factors for poor would healing.

Bacterial infection in the injured skin may threaten the wound repair and skin regeneration owing to aggravated inflammation. The multifunctional dressings with persistent antibacterial activity and improved anti-inflammatory capability are urgently required. Herein, a type of heterogeneous zinc/catechol-derived resin microspheres (Zn/CFRs) composed of zinc ions (Zn) and zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles was developed to impart the methacrylamide chitosan (CSMA)-oxidized hyaluronic acid (OHA) hydrogel with a persistent Zn release behavior.

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most aggressive breast cancer subtype, characterized by a high propensity for metastasis, poor prognosis, and limited treatment options. Research has demonstrated a substantial correlation between the expression of protein arginine N-methyltransferase 1 (PRMT1) and enhanced proliferation, metastasis, and poor outcomes in TNBC. However, the specific role of PRMT1 in lung metastasis and chemoresistance remains unclear.

Diabetic wounds present persistent challenges due to impaired healing, recurrent infection, oxidative stress, and dysregulated glucose metabolism. Bioinspired polymeric microneedle (MN) patches have emerged as multifunctional platforms capable of penetrating the stratum corneum to deliver therapeutics directly into the dermis, enabling glucose regulation, antimicrobial action, reactive oxygen species (ROS) modulation, and proangiogenic stimulation. Recent experimental evidence has demonstrated that the integration of glucose oxidase-loaded porous metal-organic frameworks, photothermal nanomaterials, and antioxidant hydrogels within dissolvable MNs achieves synergistic bactericidal effects, accelerates collagen deposition, and enhances neovascularization in diabetic wound models.

Background: Insulinoma, the most common type of pancreatic endocrine tumor, frequently induces hypoglycemia due to persistent hyperinsulinemia. Although Mi-Lnc70 expression progressively increases during pancreatic maturation in mice, the biological role of Mi-Lnc70 in pancreatic β cells remains elusive.
Aim: This study was designed to investigate the role of LncRNA-Mi-Lnc70 in the mouse pancreatic β-cell line MIN6.

Background: Diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) are a prevalent complication of diabetes, leading to significant morbidity, mortality, and amputation rates. Chronic non-healing DFU often result from peripheral neuropathy, microvascular issues, and infection, with poor blood and oxygen supply being critical factors in delayed healing. The development of new treatments to promote blood supply and accelerate ulcer healing is a significant area of research for DFU management.
