This paper examines how those wounded characters reflect on both Jake Barnes and Hemingway＇s philosophy that we are all wounded in life and must make choices that allow us to live as best we can without hurting others. By close reading, the author hopes to show how two characters, Belmonte and Brett Ashley, may have been undervalued by critics, and to also show Hemingway＇s essential ambiguity in portraying human relationships, leaving final judgments up to his readers.展开更多

Its high level of resistance to multiple antibiotics has garnered growing interest in identifying and applying novel antibacterial compounds derived from natural sources. In this study, we purified a biosurfactant(BS) from Bacillus rugosus HH2 to develop a natural antibacterial agent. This agent was then reinforced with chitooligosaccharide(COS) and polyvinyl alcohol(PVA) to create a hydrogel that promoted healing in MRSA-infected wounds. The COS/PVA/BS hydrogel was readily fabricated via the freeze-thaw method and demonstrated excellent mechanical strength, biological activity,and biocompatibility. In vitro assays confirmed that the hydrogel significantly enhanced the proliferation, migration, angiogenesis, and extracellular matrix deposition of fibroblasts,keratinocytes, and endothelial cells. Moreover, it exhibited strong bacteriostatic and bactericidal activities against MRSA, along with potent antibiofilm activity and inhibition of virulence factors relevant to MRSA-induced wound infections. Its anti-virulence effects have been linked to the downregulation of quorum sensing and virulence-related genes in MRSA. In an in vivo model of MRSA-induced infection, the COS/PVA/BS hydrogel significantly accelerated wound healing and markedly reduced the MRSA burden. Immunofluorescence staining confirmed enhanced neovascularization and regulated macrophage responses,underscoring the angiogenic and immunomodulatory effects of the hydrogel. Overall,the COS/PVA/BS hydrogel represents a promising therapeutic strategy for addressing antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections and promoting wound repair, supported by the use of common raw materials, a simple fabrication process, and high-yield production of natural antibacterial agents.展开更多

Methods: A specially-made explosive gun was used to shoot aluminium bullet weighing 3.0 g and 1.4 g to injure both legs of dogs at velocities of 2*!330 m/s, 3*!200 m/s and 4*!250 m/s, respectively, and the soap specially made was also shot. At the same time, steel ball of 1.03 g was shot with a Type 53 smooth chamber gun at a speed of 1*!280 m/s. Within 30 min after wounding, debridement and pathological anatomy were performed and specimens were taken for light microscope observation. Results: When the dogs were wounded by the 3 g bullet at speed of 2*!330 m/s, the entrance of the left leg was penetrated explosively with a defect area of 225 cm 2, and the femur trunk was also injured and the residual femur had comminution fracture. The exit of the right leg was blindly wounded with a defect area of 63 cm 2, but only the skin was not penetrated. Both testes and part pelvis were injured too. Under light microscope, degenerative myofibers and bleeding of the spatium between the myofibers could be found at the place 4 cm away from the wounding track. Furthermore, serious bleeding of the bladder and blood vessels of the brain could be observed. The lungs showed changes of blast injury. Vacuolar change was presented in the cytoplasm of hepatocytes. Injuries of the animals in other two experimental groups were similar to those described above, but the defect area of the wounded track was 124 cm 2 in the group of 4*!250 m/s. Injuries caused by the steel ball were milder than caused by the explosive gun. The volume of the residual cavity in the soap was 5*!000 ml. Conclusions: The super-velocity projectile causes destructive damage to the local tissues and multi-organ injuries. Therefore, the practical medical care needs not only amputation but also management of multi-organ injuries.展开更多

文摘Wound management continues to present major clinical challenges,often necessitating therapeutic strategies that extend beyond conventional dressings,which provide only passive protection.Magnesium(Mg),a biologically indispensable element,has attracted considerable attention for its multifaceted role in wound repair,including modulation of inflammatory responses,stimulation of fibroblast and keratinocyte proliferation,promotion of angiogenesis,and enhancement of collagen synthesis.However,the direct application of Mg formulations is limited by uncontrolled Mg ion(Mg^(2+))release,localized cytotoxicity at elevated concentrations,and inadequate mechanical stability at the wound site.To address these challenges,Mg-incorporated polymeric scaffolds have been developed as advanced delivery platforms.These systems integrate the regenerative capacity of Mg with the tunable properties of polymers,enabling controlled degradation,mechanical reinforcement,and sustained Mg^(2+)release to establish a favorable microenvironment for tissue repair.This review critically examines the role of Mg in wound healing and the effectiveness of polymeric matrices for controlled Mg^(2+)delivery.It further provides a comprehensive evaluation of recent advances in Mg-incorporated polymeric scaffolds,including nanofibers,hydrogels,and sponges,with emphasis on fabrication strategies,structural characteristics,and therapeutic efficacy.Key challenges,such as optimizing ion release kinetics,enhancing scaffold stability,and facilitating clinical translation,are also discussed.Collectively,this work underscores the potential of Mg-polymeric scaffolds as a next-generation platform for advanced wound care and highlights perspectives for future research and development.

文摘Diabetic wounds present challenges in clinical management due to persistent inflammation caused by excessive exudate infiltration.Inspired by the gradient wettability of cactus thorn,this study has devised a biomimetic Janus nanofiber membrane as a water diode,which endows with gradient wettability and gradient pore size,offering sustainable unidirectional self-drainage and antibacterial properties for enhanced diabetic wound healing.The Janus membrane is fabricated by depositing a hydrophilic polyacrylonitrile/chlorin e6 layer with smaller pore sizes onto a hydrophobic poly(ε-caprolactone)with larger pore sizes,thereby generating a vertical gradient in both wettability and pore structure.The incorporation of chlorin e6 in the upper layer enables the utilization of external light energy to generate heat for evaporation and produce reactive oxygen species,achieving a high sterilization efficiency of 99%.Meanwhile,the gradient structure of the Janus membrane facilitates continuous antigravity exudate drainage at a rate of 0.95 g cm^(−2) h^(−1).This dual functionality of effective exudate drainage and sterilization significantly reduces inflammatory factors,allows the polarization of macrophages toward the M2 proliferative phenotype,enhances angiogenesis,and accelerates wound healing.Therefore,this study provides a groundbreaking bioinspired strategy for the development of advanced wound dressings tailored for diabetic wound regeneration.

文摘Skin injury repair is a complicated process that involves wound healing.Effective wound dressings play a crucial role in enhancing this process by providing multiple functions,such as wettability,antibacterial activity,and drug release.In this study,Calophyllum inophyllum oil(CIO)is incorporated into polyethylene oxide-polyvinyl acetate(PEO-PVAc)nanofibers using an electrospinning technique.The successful incorporation is verified by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy,while the morphology is observed by scanning electron microscopy.The fabricated nanofibers are beadless and have fiber diameter distributions of 333–472 nm.The addition of CIO significantly improves the wettability of the nanofibers,as indicated by a decrease in water contact angle,which is crucial for accelerating the healing process.Additionally,the CIO exhibits potent antibacterial activity against both Gram-positive(Escherichia coli)and Gram-negative(Staphylococcus aureus)bacteria,with expanding inhibition zones as the CIO concentration is increased.These findings highlight the great potential of PEO-PVAc/CIO nanofibers for advanced wound healing applications.

文摘The development of highly efficient and multifunctional nanozymes holds promise for addressing the challenges posed by drugresistant bacteria.Here,copper single-atom-loaded MoS_(2) nanozymes(CuSAs/MoS_(2))were developed to effectively combat drug-resistant bacteria by synergistically integrating the triple strategies of oxidative damage,cuproptosis-like death and disruption of cell wall synthesis.Density functional theory revealed that each Cu center coordinated with three sulfur ligands,enhancing the adsorption of H_(2)O_(2),which reduced the activation energy of the key step by 17%,thereby improving peroxidase-like(PODlike)activity.The generation of reactive oxygen species in combination with CuSAs/MoS_(2) glutathione peroxidase-like(GSH-Px-like)for glutathione scavenging resulted in an imbalance in redox homeostasis within bacteria.CuSAs/MoS_(2),which act as nanopioneers,drive oxidative stress to initiate the process of cuproptosis-like death,leading to abnormal aggregation of lipoylated proteins and inactivation of iron-sulfur cluster proteins.Moreover,CuSAs/MoS_(2) inhibited the biosynthesis of the peptidoglycan synthesis precursors D-glutamate and m-diaminopimelic acid and disrupted the peptidoglycan cross-linking process mediated by penicillin-binding proteins,effectively blocking the compensatory cell wall remodeling pathway ofβ-lactam-resistant bacteria.Overall,CuSAs/MoS_(2) with multiple functions can not only efficiently kill bacteria but also decelerate the development of bacterial resistance to combat drug-resistant bacterial infections.

文摘Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA) causes widespread infections and poses serious public health concerns. Its high level of resistance to multiple antibiotics has garnered growing interest in identifying and applying novel antibacterial compounds derived from natural sources. In this study, we purified a biosurfactant(BS) from Bacillus rugosus HH2 to develop a natural antibacterial agent. This agent was then reinforced with chitooligosaccharide(COS) and polyvinyl alcohol(PVA) to create a hydrogel that promoted healing in MRSA-infected wounds. The COS/PVA/BS hydrogel was readily fabricated via the freeze-thaw method and demonstrated excellent mechanical strength, biological activity,and biocompatibility. In vitro assays confirmed that the hydrogel significantly enhanced the proliferation, migration, angiogenesis, and extracellular matrix deposition of fibroblasts,keratinocytes, and endothelial cells. Moreover, it exhibited strong bacteriostatic and bactericidal activities against MRSA, along with potent antibiofilm activity and inhibition of virulence factors relevant to MRSA-induced wound infections. Its anti-virulence effects have been linked to the downregulation of quorum sensing and virulence-related genes in MRSA. In an in vivo model of MRSA-induced infection, the COS/PVA/BS hydrogel significantly accelerated wound healing and markedly reduced the MRSA burden. Immunofluorescence staining confirmed enhanced neovascularization and regulated macrophage responses,underscoring the angiogenic and immunomodulatory effects of the hydrogel. Overall,the COS/PVA/BS hydrogel represents a promising therapeutic strategy for addressing antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections and promoting wound repair, supported by the use of common raw materials, a simple fabrication process, and high-yield production of natural antibacterial agents.

文摘Objective:To evaluate the effects of a piceatannol-loaded self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery system(PIC-SNEDDS)on wound healing in diabetic rats and its mechanisms of wound healing action.Methods:Diabetes was induced in rats using streptozotocin,after which full-thickness excisional wounds were created.Piceatannol was administered topically either as a raw hydrogel or formulated into a PIC-SNEDDS,which was prepared using an optimized oil-surfactant mixture and incorporated into a hydrogel for application.Wound healing activity was assessed through measurements of wound contraction,oxidative stress biomarkers,and collagen content,along with histological and immunohistochemical evaluation of inflammatory,angiogenic,and remodeling markers.Results:PIC-SNEDDS markedly enhanced diabetic wound healing by promoting epithelial regeneration,granulation tissue formation,epidermal proliferation,and keratinization.The formulation also reduced the expression of pro-inflammatory markers(interleukin-6,nuclear factor-kappa B,and tumor necrosis factor-α)while increasingα-smooth muscle actin,transforming growth factor-β1,vascular endothelial growth factor-A,and hydroxyproline levels.Additionally,it improved antioxidant status by lowering malondialdehyde levels and boosting superoxide dismutase and catalase activity,along with upregulation of COL1A1 mRNA expression.Conclusions:PIC-SNEDDS promotes the healing of diabetic wounds and exhibits anti-inflammatory,antioxidant,pro-collagen,and angiogenic properties.
文摘Delayed wound healing following radical gastrectomy remains an important yet underappreciated complication that prolongs hospitalization,increases costs,and undermines patient recovery.In An et al’s recent study,the authors present a machine learning-based risk prediction approach using routinely available clinical and laboratory parameters.Among the evaluated algorithms,a decision tree model demonstrated excellent discrimination,achieving an area under the curve of 0.951 in the validation set and notably identifying all true cases of delayed wound healing at the Youden index threshold.The inclusion of variables such as drainage duration,preoperative white blood cell and neutrophil counts,alongside age and sex,highlights the pragmatic appeal of the model for early postoperative monitoring.Nevertheless,several aspects warrant critical reflection,including the reliance on a postoperative variable(drainage duration),internal validation only,and certain reporting inconsistencies.This letter underscores both the promise and the limitations of adopting interpretable machine learning models in perioperative care.We advocate for transparent reporting,external validation,and careful consideration of clinically actionable timepoints before integration into practice.Ultimately,this work represents a valuable step toward precision risk stratification in gastric cancer surgery,and sets the stage for multicenter,prospective evaluations.
文摘Objective:: To understand wounding characteristics in dogs wounded by super velocity projectile with a purpose of providing a basis for prevention and treatment of such wounds. Methods: A specially-made explosive gun was used to shoot aluminium bullet weighing 3.0 g and 1.4 g to injure both legs of dogs at velocities of 2*!330 m/s, 3*!200 m/s and 4*!250 m/s, respectively, and the soap specially made was also shot. At the same time, steel ball of 1.03 g was shot with a Type 53 smooth chamber gun at a speed of 1*!280 m/s. Within 30 min after wounding, debridement and pathological anatomy were performed and specimens were taken for light microscope observation. Results: When the dogs were wounded by the 3 g bullet at speed of 2*!330 m/s, the entrance of the left leg was penetrated explosively with a defect area of 225 cm 2, and the femur trunk was also injured and the residual femur had comminution fracture. The exit of the right leg was blindly wounded with a defect area of 63 cm 2, but only the skin was not penetrated. Both testes and part pelvis were injured too. Under light microscope, degenerative myofibers and bleeding of the spatium between the myofibers could be found at the place 4 cm away from the wounding track. Furthermore, serious bleeding of the bladder and blood vessels of the brain could be observed. The lungs showed changes of blast injury. Vacuolar change was presented in the cytoplasm of hepatocytes. Injuries of the animals in other two experimental groups were similar to those described above, but the defect area of the wounded track was 124 cm 2 in the group of 4*!250 m/s. Injuries caused by the steel ball were milder than caused by the explosive gun. The volume of the residual cavity in the soap was 5*!000 ml. Conclusions: The super-velocity projectile causes destructive damage to the local tissues and multi-organ injuries. Therefore, the practical medical care needs not only amputation but also management of multi-organ injuries.
