the anode was placed on the additional wound (otherwise over the intact skin nearby). Secondary dressings (e.g., foam and/ or gauze) were used as clinically appropriate, and a 4-layer compression wrap was used, if indicated, for patients with venous ulcers. A total of 10 patients (3 wo...

(BiatrodesTM 100’S, Akern, Florence, Italy) placed on the right hand and foot and whole-body BIA was performed. In patients with an arteriovenous fistula in the dominant arm, anthropometric and muscle strength measurements were carried out on the contralateral side. BIA-derived measurements ...
In 1997, PDGF, or becaplermin, became the first and only US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved growth factor to be used in wound healing under the trade name Regranex, specifically for diabetic foot ulcers. PGDF is chemotactic for neutrophils and macrophages, and hence plays an ...
Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) taxonomy has been updated with reported subtypes and is defined as primary pain alongside other chronic limb pain (CLP) conditions. We aimed at identifying CRPS clinical phenotypes that distinguish CRPS from other CL
Hypothesis: Astrocyte Foot Processes Detachment from the Neurovascular Unit in Female Diabetic Mice May Impair Modulation of Information Processing-Six Degrees of Separation. Brain Sci. 2019, 9, 83. [CrossRef] [PubMed] 37. Hayden, M.R. Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Increases the Risk of Late-Onset...
NETs are increased in diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) patients compared to healthy patients [37]. NETs such as citrullinated histone 3 were suggested as potential negative markers for wound healing [37]. In summary, the persistent presence of neutrophils at the wound site delays the healing process ...
Activation of these receptors can result in a pro-inflammatory response, leading to the recruitment and activation of other immune cells or an anti-inflammatory response in which the immune reaction is dampened and tissue regeneration and wound healing is promoted [10]. Scavenger Receptors—Structure...
