Article Abstract
Background: Wound recovery is an important part of treatment to prevent internal organelles from possible exposure to outer pathogens. In recent years, different therapies have been reported to enhance the natural wound healing process with faster and more effective tissue repair.
Method: The hydrothermal method has been endeavored to synthesize eco-friendly and cost-effective polymer (polyethylene glycol (PEG) and chitosan) functionalized cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeO NPs). Wound healing potential was studied on Chorioallantoic Membrane Assay and G. domesticus wheras anticancer studies were conducted against HuH-7.0 (hepatic cancer cell line).
Results: Wound healing properties are studied initially through CAM assay which shows vein growth with chitosan-functionalized CeO NPs. The topical wound healing studies on G. domesticus show speedy recovery and quicker completion of the skin remodeling phase, observed through the quality of the recovered skin. Additionally, PEGylation has promoted the anticancer potential of CeO NPs against HuH-7.0 (hepatic cancer cell line) and the IC value is 37.89 μg/mL.
Conclusion: The results show that PEG and chitosan coating have enhanced the therapeutic prospects of CeO NPs.

Wound healing is a complex, tightly regulated process involving a range of enzymes, growth factors, and cytokines that coordinate cellular activities essential for tissue repair and wound closure. However, in cases of extensive or severe injury, the intrinsic repair mechanisms are often insufficient, underscoring the need for advanced therapeutic strategies to accelerate healing and minimize scar formation. Electrically conductive hydrogels (ECHs), combining the advantageous properties of hydrogels with the physiological and electrochemical characteristics of conductive materials, present a safer and more convenient alternative to traditional electrode-based electrical stimulation (ES) for treating chronic and nonhealing wounds.

Wound infections challenge clinical medicine, and developing novel therapies is critically important in overcoming antimicrobial resistance and an off-balanced immune microenvironment. Electrical stimulation as a biocompatible, easy-to-operate, and controllable technique has great potential in eradicating pathogens and modulating the immune system. However, safe and soft platforms that integrate both bactericidal and immunological modulatory effects of electrical stimulation are rarely reported.

Background: Charcot foot is a debilitating complication of peripheral neuropathy and is primarily associated with diabetes, leading to structural damage, ulceration, and osteomyelitis. Pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapy is a promising treatment modality for wound healing and bone metabolism.
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of PEMF therapy in promoting bone growth and ulcer healing in patients with Charcot foot ulcers.
