Accurate monitoring of chronic wound progression is crucial for assessing healing dynamics. However, the current manual process of tissue segmentation and quantification, which is an indicator of the healing progress, is time-consuming and subject to...
Blending poly (lactic acid) (PLA) with poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) improves the strength and hydrophilicity of nanofibers, making them suitable for biomedical applications like wound dressings. This study explores how electrospinning parameters-applie...
INTRODUCTION: Iontophoresis has been extensively studied for topical and transdermal drug delivery to stimulate the absorption of molecules that would hardly pass through the outermost layer of the skin passively. Recent research has focused on its c...
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Hydrargyrum chloratum compositum(Hcc) is a traditional Chinese medicine for external use, with the efficacy of 'transforming corrosion and pulling out toxins, removing corrosion and regenerating muscles'. The main comp...

The evolution of wound monitoring techniques has seen a significant shift from traditional methods like ruler-based measurements to the use of AI-assisted assessment of wound tissues. This progression has been driven by the need for more accurate, ef...
Impaired wound healing is a significant clinical challenge. Standard wound analysis approaches are macroscopic, with limited histological assessments that rely on visual inspection of haematoxylin and eosin (H&E)-stained sections of biopsies. The ana...

Longitudinal imaging data are routinely acquired for health studies and patient monitoring. A central goal in longitudinal studies is tracking relevant change over time. Traditional methods remove nuisance variation with custom pipelines to focus on ...
Chronic wounds, which take over four weeks to heal, are a major global health issue linked to conditions such as diabetes, venous insufficiency, arterial diseases, and pressure ulcers. These wounds cause pain, reduce quality of life, and impose signi...
BACKGROUND: Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) are a serious complication of diabetes mellitus that manifests as chronic, non-healing wounds that have a significant impact on patients quality of life. Identifying key molecular targets associated with DFUs c...
Skin injuries caused by physical, pathological, and chemical factors not only compromise appearance and barrier function but can also lead to life-threatening microbial infections, posing significant challenges for patients and healthcare systems. Ar...
