Summary: This study compares the clinical outcomes of two techniques for wound closure after carpal tunnel surgery. The results show that patients with glue-based wound closure had better cosmetic outcomes and less postoperative pain at 2-week and 6-week intervals. However, there was no significant difference in outcomes at the 12-week interval.

Summary: Injuries to the skin initiate a series of synchronized healing processes. Fibroblasts play various roles in endogenous wound repair, including activating innate immune cells, depositing scar tissue, and transporting fascial connective tissue to the wounds. Understanding the diversity and versatility of fibroblasts is crucial for deciphering wound pathologies and developing new treatment approaches.

Summary: Diabetes chronic wound is a serious medical problem in patients with diabetes, which often leads to complications. A porcupine quill-like multilayer microneedle patch was designed to address the issues of insufficient skin adhesion and bacterial infection. The patch contains antibacterial nanoparticles and a hypoglycemic agent, and is combined with a flexible and adhesive back patching for better tissue adhesion and wound healing. The bioinspired multilayer structure of the patch shows satisfactory mechanical and antibacterial properties, making it a potential dressing platform for promoting wound healing.
