Bacteria-infected wounds are attracting increasing attention, as antibiotic misuse and multidrug-resistant bacteria complicate their treatment. Herein, we reported a photothermal activity-based drug consisting of β-cyclodextrin (βCD)-functionalized graphene oxide (GO) near-infrared light-responsive nanovehicles combined with the nitric oxide donor BNN6, in a methacrylate-modified gelatin (GelMA)/ hyaluronic acid graft dopamine (HA-DA) hydrogel. The synergistic effects of photothermal and gas therapies are expected to improve antibacterial efficiency and reduce drug resistance. The results revealed that GelMA/HA-DA/GO-βCD-BNN6 was an ideal antibacterial material that improved collagen deposition and angiogenesis and promoted wound healing in a mouse model of full-thickness skin repair, compared to the commercially available Aquacel Ag dressing. We developed a multifunctional nanocomposite hydrogel that exhibited antibacterial and angiogenic properties, adhesiveness, and mechanical properties that enhance the regeneration of bacteria-infected wounds.
Study Objective: To analyze retrospectively the effect of hysteroscopy combined with transvaginal repair on the cesarean section diverticulum (CSD) and explore the clinical significance of this procedure. Design: Retrospective study. Setting: University-affiliated hospital and a gynecology hospital. Patients: A total of 183 patients with scar diverticulum after cesarean section were recruited from the Southern Medical University Affiliated Maternal &
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
