Seawater is an environment in which numerous microorganisms have evolved, some with a great potential for biotechnology. In recent years, many scientists moved away from the assumption that origin of life was pools water, and instead propose on Earth probably originated accumulations warm, nutrient-rich mud. This mud, also called peloid rich source organisms that, due to their adaptation this u...

Berkembangnya pola kehidupan saat ini, membuat masyarakat untuk terus berkembang, mulai dari segi sosial, teknologi mupun juga ekonomi. Hal ini rasa tertekan menjadi salah satu masalah terbesar yang dihadapi. Healing Environment pada umumnya ditujukan bangunan fasilitas kesehatan mendeskripsikan pengaturan fisik dan organisasi budaya mendukung pasien keluarga dalam melewati tekanan dikarenakan ...

INTRODUCTION A multitude of topical wound treatments are used today. Although it is well established that the micro-environment of healing wounds can be altered to improve healing, it is difficult to measure the subtle differences in outcome where therapies are compared. METHOD We compared wound healing properties between four different topical agents in surgically incised wounds in a pig mod...

In covering wounds, efforts should include utilization of the safest and least invasive methods with goals of achieving optimal functional and cosmetic outcome. The recent development of advanced wound healing technology has triggered the use of cells to improve wound healing conditions. The purpose of this review is to provide information on clinically available cell-based treatment options fo...

Facing severe mental health disparities rooted in a complex history of cultural oppression, members of many urban American Indian (AI) communities are reaching out for indigenous traditional healing to augment their use of standard Western mental health services. Because detailed descriptions of approaches for making traditional healing available for urban AI communities do not exist in the lit...

Cytokines play important roles in the wound healing process through various signalling pathways. The JAK-STAT pathway is utilised by most cytokines for signal transduction and is regulated by a variety of molecules, including suppressor of cytokine signalling (SOCS) proteins. SOCS are associated with inflammatory diseases and have an impact on cytokines, growth factors and key cell types involv...

Surgical wounds in cancer patients have a relatively high dehiscence rate. Although cancer resections are performed so as to include macroscopically non-involved tissues, some cancer cells can be present in the line of transection or surrounding tissues (R1 and R2 resections). The local healing process may facilitate proliferation of these localized cancer cells, and the high cytokine concentra...

Double-row rotator cuff repair techniques incorporate a medial and lateral row of suture anchors in the repair configuration. Biomechanical studies of double-row repair have shown increased load to failure, improved contact areas and pressures, and decreased gap formation at the healing enthesis, findings that have provided impetus for clinical studies comparing single-row with double-row repai...
