Abstract
Chronic non-healing wounds are a common consequence of skin ulceration in diabetic patients, with severe cases such as diabetic foot even leading to amputations. The interplay between pathological factors like hypoxia-ischemia, chronic inflammation, bacterial infection, impaired angiogenesis, and accumulation of advanced glycosylation end products (AGEs), resulting from the dysregulation of the immune microenvironment caused by hyperglycemia, establishes an unending cycle that hampers wound healing. However, there remains a dearth of sufficient and effective approaches to break this vicious cycle within the complex immune microenvironment. Consequently, numerous scholars have directed their research efforts towards addressing chronic diabetic wound repair. In recent years, gases including Oxygen (O2), Nitric oxide (NO), Hydrogen (H2), Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), Ozone (O3), Carbon monoxide (CO) and Nitrous oxide (N2O), along with gas-releasing materials associated with them have emerged as promising therapeutic solutions due to their ability to regulate angiogenesis, intracellular oxygenation levels, exhibit antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects while effectively minimizing drug residue-induced damage and circumventing drug resistance issues. In this review, we discuss the latest advances in the mechanisms of action and treatment of these gases and related gas-releasing materials in diabetic wound repair. We hope that this review can provide different ideas for the future design and application of gas therapy for chronic diabetic wounds.

Abstract
Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by elevated levels of glucose in the blood. This causes small nerve polyneuropathy resulting in diabetic foot ulcers. A diabetic foot ulcer is an open sore or wound that develops as a result of chronic diabetes. Indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) near-infrared (NIR) can provide real-time visualization of blood flow within the microvasculature of the underlying organ. Here, we discuss a 63-year-old patient who came with a diabetic foot ulcer over his right great toe. His blood glucose level was 208 mg/dl. He drinks alcohol occasionally and smokes regularly. The tissue perfusion of his right foot was checked using the indocyanine green dye, after which orthopedic surgeons were consulted, and the gangrenous part was amputated.

Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic has changed many aspects of people's lives, including not only individual social behavior, healthcare procedures, and altered physiological and pathophysiological responses. As a result, some medical studies may be influenced by one or more hidden factors brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic. Using the literature review method, we are briefly discussing the studies that are confounded by COVID-19 and facemask-induced partiality and how these factors can be further complicated with other confounding variables. Facemask wearing has been reported to produce partiality in studies of ophthalmology (particularly dry eye and related ocular diseases), sleep studies, cognitive studies (such as emotion-recognition accuracy research, etc.), and gender-influenced studies, to mention a few. There is a possibility that some other COVID-19 related influences remain unrecognized in medical research. To account for heterogeneity, current and future studies need to consider the severity of the initial illness (such as diabetes, other endocrine disorders), and COVID-19 infection, the timing of analysis, or the presence of a control group. Face mask-induced influences may confound the results of diabetes studies in many ways.

Abstract
For soft tissue sarcoma patients receiving preoperative radiation therapy, wound complications are common and potentially devastating. The purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility of intraoperative indocyanine green fluorescent angiography (ICGA) as a predictor of wound complications in these patients. A consecutive series of patients with soft tissue sarcoma of the extremities or pelvis who received neoadjuvant radiation and a subsequent radical resection received intraoperative ICGA with the SPY PHI device (Stryker Inc.) at the time of closure. Retrospective analysis of fluorescence signal along multiple points of the wound length was performed and quantified. The primary endpoint was wound complication, defined as delayed wound healing or wound dehiscence, within 3 months of surgery. Fourteen patients with preoperative irradiated soft tissue sarcoma were consecutively imaged. There were six patients with wound complications classified as "aseptic" in five cases. Using the ICGA, blinded surgeons correctly predicted wound complications in 75% of cases. During the inflow phase, a mean ratio of normal of 0.62 maximized the area under the curve (AUC = 0.90) for predicting wound complications with a sensitivity of 100% and specificity of 77.4%. During the peak phase, a mean ratio of normal of 0.55 maximized the AUC (0.95) for predicting wound complications with a sensitivity of 88.9% and a specificity of 100%. Intraoperative use of ICGA may help to predict wound complications in patients undergoing resection of preoperatively irradiated soft tissue sarcomas of the extremities and pelvis.

Hyperbaric Exposure of Scuba Divers Affects the Urinary Excretion of Nucleic Acid Oxidation Products and Hypoxanthine. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2022; 19:ijerph19053005.

Abstract
In recent studies, oxidative stress after scuba diving has been explored by measuring urinary biomarkers in volunteers under controlled conditions. Dive depth and duration, water temperature, and workload are all variables that can elicit metabolic responses. A controlled diving experiment was performed in an indoor pool at 20, 30, and 40 m depths at a water temperature of 32 °C, on three different days. Samples of urine from five male scuba divers were taken before diving and at four time points after diving, and then tested for their concentration of five different oxidative stress biomarkers by means of liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry and by 1H nuclear magnetic resonance metabolomics analysis. The results showed no variation in the five biomarkers after diving, but a decreasing trend was observed over the three days, with no differences among the three depths. The lack of effect on oxidative stress biomarkers has been attributed to the comfortable water temperature and to the absence of exercise in the divers during the experiment. Instead, an increase in hypoxanthine excretion, which can be considered a biomarker sensitive to hyperbaric exposure, was found after diving. Finally, the results suggest a physiological mechanism of metabolic adaptation to a new condition.

Abstract
The Wound Healing Foundation (WHF) recognised a need for an unbiased consensus on the best treatment of chronic wounds. A panel of 13 experts were invited to a virtual meeting which took place on 27 March 2021. The proceedings were organised in the sub-sections diagnosis, debridement, infection control, dressings, grafting, pain management, oxygen treatment, outcomes and future needs. Eighty percent or better concurrence among the panellists was considered a consensus. A large number of critical questions were discussed and agreed upon. Important takeaways included that wound care needs to be simplified to a point that it can be delivered by the patient or the patient's family. Another one was that telemonitoring, which has proved very useful during the COVID-19 pandemic, can help reduce the frequency of interventions by a visiting nurse or a wound care center. Defining patient expectations is critical to designing a successful treatment. Patient outcomes might include wound specific outcomes such as time to heal, wound size reduction, as well as improvement in quality of life. For those patients with expectations of healing, an aggressive approach to achieve that goal is recommended. When healing is not an expectation, such as in patients receiving palliative wound care, outcomes might include pain reduction, exudate management, odour management and/or other quality of life benefits to wound care.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To retrospectively evaluate a cohort of patients with diabetic foot ulcers to determine if the rate of microcirculatory flow detected by fluorescence imaging within the wound and surrounding tissue is associated with healing outcomes. METHODS Tissue perfusion parameters used for the current analysis were the ingress rate (IR) within the wound bed (R01) and in an area remote from the wound (REF), as well as time to first blush. Wounds were then categorized based on their outcome (healed, healing, chronic nonhealing, partial foot amputation, proximal amputation below the knee) and compared between patients with positive or negative wound healing outcomes. RESULTS The final study cohort included 61 wounds and demonstrated that a higher IR within R01 and REF areas was significantly associated with positive outcomes, whereas time to first blush was not. A two-predictor logistic model found a significant relationship between IR (R01 and REF) and odds of wound healing. CONCLUSIONS Fluorescence imaging evaluation of a diabetic foot ulcer can provide valuable information on healing outcomes that can help determine if a wound is progressing toward healing and therefore may help inform the need for advanced wound modalities, referrals, and amputation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Hyperbaric oxygen therapy in the treatment of diabetic foot ulcer has been widely used in medical practice, but its clinical effect is not clear. The purpose of this overview of systematic reviews is to evaluate the clinical evidence of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers. METHODS PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Knowledge, Embase, MEDLINE, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure Database, the Chongqing VIP Database, Chinese Biomedical Database, and Wanfang Database were searched in 1st December 2020. Systematic reviews (SRs) evaluating the effects of Hyperbaric oxygen therapy in people with diabetic foot ulcer were included. Methodological quality of the included SRs was assessed using the AMSTAR-2 tool. The quality of evidence of the primary studies was assessed using GRADE. The integrity of the included SRs was assessed using PRISMA. The bias risk of each SR was assessed using ROBIS evaluation tool. RESULTS Eleven SRs/MAs met all inclusion criteria. According to the results of the AMSTAR-2, only 1 included review were rated critically as being of high quality, 6 included review were rated critically as being of medium quality. With PRISMA, the reporting checklist was relatively complete, but some reporting weaknesses remained in the topics of the protocol and registration, search strategy, and additional analyses. Based on the ROBIS tool, only five SRs/MAs had a low risk of bias. With the GRADE system, no high-quality evidence was found, and only 13 outcomes provided moderate-quality evidence. CONCLUSIONS There is limited clinical evidence to support hyperbaric oxygen therapy in the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers, it is not recommended to routinely apply hyperbaric oxygen therapy to all patients with diabetic foot ulcers, especially those with non-ischemic diabetic foot ulcers. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy has certain potential to promote ulcer healing and reduce amputation rate in patients with ischemic diabetic foot ulcers, but due to the low quality and small quantity of the SRs/MAs supporting these results, high-quality studies with rigorous study designs and larger samples are needed before widespread recommendations can be made.

Abstract
(1) Background: Near-infrared fluorescence imaging is a technique capable of assessing tissue perfusion and has been adopted in various fields including plastic surgery, vascular surgery, coronary arterial disease, and gastrointestinal surgery. While the usefulness of this technique has been broadly explored, there is a large variety in the calculation of perfusion parameters. In this systematic review, we aim to provide a detailed overview of current perfusion parameters, and determine the perfusion parameters with the most potential for application in near-infrared fluorescence imaging. (2) Methods: A comprehensive search of the literature was performed in Pubmed, Embase, Medline, and Cochrane Review. We included all clinical studies referencing near-infrared perfusion parameters. (3) Results: A total of 1511 articles were found, of which, 113 were suitable for review, with a final selection of 59 articles. Near-infrared fluorescence imaging parameters are heterogeneous in their correlation to perfusion. Time-related parameters appear superior to absolute intensity parameters in a clinical setting. (4) Conclusions: This literature review demonstrates the variety of parameters selected for the quantification of perfusion in near-infrared fluorescence imaging.
