The wound healing process presents notable challenges for nursing teams, requiring extensive knowledge of care materials. A nanoparticle-free, bioabsorbable pol-yvinyl alcohol (PVA) with citric acid (CA) dressing produced by simple electrospin-ning was evaluated to treat acute in rats. This PVA-CA combination promotes crosslinking, increases the capacity absorption and confers heal-ing properties due antioxidant action. tested a quantitative experiment on 1.9 cm dermatological lesions rats (n = 12), com-paring PVA-CA-treated group untreated control (CG). Samples were collected at 3, 7 14 days after lesion induction evaluate inflammatory tissue healing. macroscopic histological data third day showed similar characteristics both groups; however, fourteen days, exhibited complete healing, accompanied recomposition skin layers, whereas wounds CG did not close completely. results highlight that electrospun PVA-AC dressings improve outcomes constitute prom-ising affordable solution, providing suitable environment repair, re-ducing cell infiltration, blood vessel formation, restoration epi-thelial tissue, reducing time wounds.

The use of centrifugal spinning as a method for producing nanofibers has advantages over other methods, such high production rates, large‐scale production, and no need voltage. In this work, two different biodegradable materials are used in mixture ratios to produce composite fibrous membranes. Characterization methods demonstrated that the amount added carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) significantly affects fiber formation end‐product properties. When concentration CMC is increased, membranes become mechanically stronger, whereas ability becomes weaker. crystal clusters their heterogeneous distribution determine optical properties These fibrillar suitable eco‐friendly filtration systems.

Diabetes mellitus is a prevalent chronic disease, often leading to complications, with wounds being among the most challenging. Impairment of CXCR4/CXCL12 signaling pathway, which plays key role in cell mobilization, migration, and angiogenesis, significantly hampers wound healing process diabetic patients. Modulation this pathway using CXCR4-targeted agents has shown promise restoring repair capabilities. Additionally, development responsive hydrogels capable adapting external stimuli offers powerful platform for drug delivery management. These hydrogels, when loaded CXCR4 agonists or antagonists, enable controlled release real-time therapeutic modulation. Integrating such existing strategies may provide an innovative effective solution overcoming challenges associated treatment.
