Chronic Wounds: An Overview of Wound Healing and Experimental Models for Wound StudiesWound management remains a significant healthcare burden worldwide. The search is ongoing for new treatment options for infected and hard-to-heal wounds. Testing for these new therapeutics requires the establishment ...
[1,19]. Treatment of chronic wounds has become a tremendous economic burden with costs estimated up to $25 billion a year in the United States alone[19]. Despite the highmortality rateand severe morbidities, mechanisms that result in the development of chronic wounds remain poorly understood, ...
Ibuprofen, lidocaine and opioids are the most exploited anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs for the treatment of chronic wounds and, thus, they are widely investigated by researchers. For instance, Djekic et al. reported the preparation and preclinical characterization of crosslinker-free chitosan-...
This technology is indicated for patients who would benefit from vacuum-assisted drainage and controlled delivery of topical wound treatment solutions and suspensions over the wound bed. NPWT can be used with a range of solutions intended for topical use, including cleansers, antibiotics, antifungals,...
Abstract: Liposomal nanomedicines have emerged as a pivotal approach for the treatment of various diseases, notably cancer and infectious diseases. This manuscript provides an in-depth review of recent advancements in liposomal formulations, highlighting their composition, targeted delivery...
The treatment of severe burn injuries is an essential part of plastic-reconstructive surgery. Severe burned patients are treated in burn centers, which have highly specialized technical and personnel equipment. In addition to clear recommendations for prehospital management, intensive care therapy is usual...

The cornerstones of stasis dermatitis treatment are compression therapy to ameliorate pain and swelling, topical treatments to alleviate secondary skin changes, and interventional treatment options to correct the underlying causes of venous reflux. Given the central role of inflammation of the lower ...
One of the early success stories of such targeted therapy was the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) with the tyrosine kinase inhibitor imatinib (Gleevec) (Druker, 2004). More recently tyrosine kinase inhibitors have been developed for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), e.g., ibrutini...
