Summary: This study compared different types of wound dressings on the donor site of split-thickness skin grafting. The results showed that all dressings had similar effects on wound healing, but the ibuprofen-containing dressing was better at reducing pain, and the nanocellulose dressing was more user-friendly. Additionally, both the nanocellulose and ibuprofen-containing foam dressings were superior to the silver dressing in terms of scar appearance. Personalized dressing selection can meet individual clinical needs and improve treatment outcomes.

Summary: Hydrogels have shown promising advantages as wound dressings due to their excellent biochemical and mechanical properties. This review summarizes the advanced functions of hydrogel dressings, such as antimicrobial, adhesion, hemostasis, anti-inflammatory, substance delivery, self-healing, stimulus response, and conductivity, as well as the emerging wound monitoring feature. The potential applications for different types of wounds, including chronic wounds and focus on infected, burn, and diabetic wounds, are discussed, along with proposed future directions for hydrogel wound dressings in wound healing.

Summary: This study compared the outcomes of using polylactic acid membrane and polyurethane film for split-thickness skin graft donor sites. The results showed that polylactic acid membrane improved scar appearance at the donor sites, reduced pain and mobility limitations, and required fewer dressing changes and less time for wound dressing. However, the treatment cost was higher for polylactic acid membrane.

Summary: An ideal wound dressing should possess excellent physical properties, comfortability, and protection. Inspired by the structure of human skin, a skin-like wound dressing was designed with a hydrophilic healing interlayer and a hydrophobic protective surface made of polyvinylidene fluoride. This dressing not only has outstanding physical properties, comfortability, and protective function, but also promotes cell migration and wound healing.

Summary: This study designs a novel cellulose-based hydrogel that can monitor and promote the healing of infected wounds in real time. The hydrogel exhibits pH and temperature responsive properties and can release Ag+ to kill bacteria. This research opens up new possibilities for domestic real-time monitoring and pro-healing of infected wounds.
