Abstract
This study aims to evaluate the clinical effects of different blood derivatives on wound healing using network meta-analysis. PubMed, Embase, OVID, Web of Science, SCOPUS and Cochrane Central were searched to obtain studies about blood derivatives on wound healing until October 2023. R 4.2.0 and Stata 15.0 softwares were used for data analysis. Forty-four studies comprising 5164 patients were included. The results of network meta-analysis showed that the healing area from high to low was GF + ORCCB, ORCCB, GF, PRF, Unnas paste dressing, APG, PRP injection, PRP, PRP + thrombin gel, PPP, HPL, CT. The healing time from low to high was PRP + thrombin gel, GF, PRP, PC + K, PC, APG, PRF, CT, Silver sulfadiazine ointment. The number of patients cured from high to low was APG, PRP injection, PRP, Aurix, PRF, Leucopatch, HPL, Antimicrobial Ointment Dressing, CT, 60 μg/cm2 repifermin, 120 μg/cm2 repifermin, AFG, PPP. The order of analgesic effect from high to low was AFG, Aminogam gel, PRF, PRP, Oxidised oil, APG, GF, CT. The order of the number of wound infection cases from low to high is APG, 20 μg/cm2 repifermin, 60 μg/cm2 repifermin, PRP, LeucoPatch, CT, PPP, Antiseptic ointment dressing. Healing area: GF + ORCCB had the best effect; Healing time: PRP + thrombin gel took the shortest time. The number of cured patients and the reduction of wound infection: APG has the best effect. Analgesic effect: AFG has the best effect. More studies with large sample sizes are needed to confirm the above findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The skin is the largest organ in the human body and serves as a barrier for protective, immune, and sensory functions. Continuous and permanent exposure to the external environment results in different levels of skin and extracellular matrix damage. During skin wound healing, the use of good dressings and addition of growth factors to the wound site can effectively modulate the rate of wound healing. A dressing containing bioactive substances can absorb wound exudates and reduce adhesion between the wound and dressing, whereas growth factors, cytokines, and signaling factors can promote cell motility and proliferation. AIM AND OBJECTIVES We prepared a functional wound dressing by combining platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and zwitterionic hydrogels. Functional wound dressings are rich in various naturally occurring growth factors that can effectively promote the healing process in various types of tissues and absorb wound exudates to reduce adhesion between wounds and dressings. Furthermore, PRP-incorporated zwitterionic hydrogels have been used to repair full-thickness wounds in Sprague-Dawley rats with diabetes (DM SD). MATERIALS AND METHODS Fibroblasts and keratinocytes were cultured with PRP, zwitterionic hydrogels, and PRP-incorporated zwitterionic hydrogels to assess cell proliferation and specific gene expression. Furthermore, PRP-incorporated zwitterionic hydrogels were used to repair full-thickness skin defects in DM SD rats. RESULTS The swelling ratio of hydrogel, hydrogel + PRP1000 (108 platelets/mL), and hydrogel + PRP1000 (109 platelets/mL) groups were similar (~07.71% ± 1.396%, 700.17% ± 1.901%, 687.48% ± 4.661%, respectively) at 144 hours. The tensile strength and Young modulus of the hydrogel and hydrogel + PRP10000 groups were not significantly different. High concentrations of PRP (approximately 108 and 109 platelets/mL) effectively promoted the proliferation of fibroblasts and keratinocytes. The zwitterionic hydrogels were not cytotoxic to any cell type. High PRP concentration-incorporated zwitterionic hydrogels increased the rate of cell proliferation and significantly increased the expression of characteristic genes such as collagen, fibronectin, involucrin, and keratin. Subsequently, zwitterionic hydrogels with high PRP concentrations were used to repair full-thickness skin defects in DM SD rats, and a wound healing rate of more than 90% was recorded on day 12. CONCLUSIONS PRP contains high concentrations of growth factors that promote cell viability, enhance specific gene expression, and have a high medical value in cell therapy. Zwitterionic hydrogels have a 3-dimensional interconnected microporous structure and can resist cell adhesion without causing cytotoxicity. Platelet-rich plasma-incorporated zwitterionic hydrogels further enhance the cellular properties and provide an effective therapeutic option for wound healing.

Abstract
A meta-analysis was conducted to investigate the effects of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in the treatment of burn wounds and to provide a scientific basis for clinical drug therapy. We searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure and Wanfang databases to identify randomised controlled trials (RCTs) on PRP in treating burn wounds, with the control group being treated with conventional treatments and the intervention group being treated with PRP alone or combined with PRP on the basis of the control group. The search duration was each database's inception to September 2023. The literature was screened, data were extracted and quality was assessed by two independent researchers. Data analysis was performed using the Review Manager 5.4 software. Eighteen RCTs comprising 1463 patients were included in the analysis. The meta-analysis revealed that the application of PRP significantly improved the wound healing rate (standardised mean difference [SMD]: 1.11, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.54-1.67, p < 0.001), shortened wound healing time (SMD: -1.69, 95% CIs: -2.21 to -1.17, p < 0.001) and reduced the incidence of adverse events (7.03% vs. 18.93%, odds ratio [OR]: 0.32, 95% CI: 0.20-0.53, p < 0.001), and also significantly reduced patients' pain (SMD: -1.86, 95% CI: -2.47 to -1.25, p < 0.001) of burn patients when compared with the control group. This study showed that PRP is effective in repairing burn wounds, promoting wound healing, reducing the incidence of adverse events and reducing patient pain, making it worthy of clinical promotion and application.

Abstract
The meta-analysis aimed to assess the efficiency of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in the management of burn wounds (BWs). Using dichotomous or contentious random- or fixed-effects models, the outcomes of this meta-analysis were examined and the odds ratio (OR) and the mean difference (MD) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were computed. Thirteen examinations from 2009 to 2023 were enrolled for the present meta-analysis, including 808 individuals with BWs. PRP had significantly shorter healing time (MD, -5.80; 95% CI, -7.73 to -3.88, p < 0.001), higher healing rate (OR, 3.14; 95% CI, 2.05-4.80, p < 0.001), higher healed area percent (MD, 12.67; 95% CI, 9.79-15.55, p < 0.001) and higher graft take area percent (MD, 4.39; 95% CI, 1.51-7.26, p = 0.003) compared with standard therapy in patients with BW. However, no significant difference was found between PRP and standard therapy in graft take ratio (OR, 1.70; 95% CI, 0.86-3.34, p = 0.13) and infection rate (OR, 0.55; 95% CI, 0.20-1.47, p = 0.23) in patients with BW. The examined data revealed that PRP had a significantly shorter healing time, a higher healing rate, a higher healed area percent and a higher graft take area percent; however, no significant difference was found in graft take ratio or infection rate compared with standard therapy in patients with BW. Yet, attention should be paid to its values since all of the selected examinations had a low sample size and some comparisons had a low number of selected studies.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Platelet rich plasma (PRP) contains high concentrations of growth factors. Intuitively, these were thought to be of potential benefit in healing of chronic wounds, skin grafts and graft donor sites. This was echoed in retrospective studies and an individual case basis but had not been randomized.
Methods
A systematic search was carried out by two individuals, independently, on the MEDLINE, EMBASE and COCHRANE databases, according to PRISMA guidelines. All data analysis and statistics was pooled and analysed using the Cochrane RevMan Software.
Results
Split thickness grafts have been described by numerous authors, but PRP use did not offer a significant advantage in graft take in pooled results (MD 5.83, 95% CI − 0.69 to 12.25, random-effects, p = 0.08). The analysis of included randomized controlled trials has shown favourable split-thickness skin graft donor site healing in the PRP group (MD − 5.55, 95% CI − 7.40 to − 3.69, random-effects, p = < 0.00001) compared to the control group. For carpal tunnel syndrome, the pooled results showed no difference in functional scores vs steroid injections (SMD − 0.68, 95% CI − 1.47 to 0.10, randomeffects, p = 0.09) or indeed splinting groups.
Conclusions
With the current body of evidence, we conclude that the use of PRP as an adjuvant therapy in skin grafts, burns, carpal tunnel surgery or scars cannot be rationalised. A potential use of PRP is in donor site management but the cost of this would be difficult to justify.
Level of evidence: Not ratable.

Abstract
Objective There are several clinical cases on the application of PRP (platelet-rich plasma) therapies. To improve disadvantages such as the inability to be standardized and stored long term, we proposed a novel platelet-lyophilized treatment (PLT) to enhance the wound healing rate and improve acne scarring. Study Design A single-blinded study at a single health care center was performed. All subjects were treated with a fractional carbon dioxide laser. On the right side of the face, 2 mL PLT solution (dissolved in normal saline) was applied, while on the left side of the face (control group), 2 mL normal saline was applied. The treatment described above was repeated every 3 to 4 weeks, and 4 treatments were performed in total. Assessments were performed prior to each treatment and at the one-month follow-up after the fourth treatment. Subjective assessments included questionnaires administered by the principal investigator and a self-assessment questionnaire completed by the subjects. Moreover, VISIA complexion analysis was used for objective data collection, and spots, wrinkles, texture, pores, UV spots, brown spots, red areas, and porphyrins were objectively analyzed. Results Our data indicated that the PLT side showed a more rapid recovery than the saline side; on average, the sloughing off of the crusts was noted on day 5 and day 6. The improvement rate for skin spots, texture, and pores was significantly increased on the PLT side, with the pigment and pore size both having a statistically significant improvement of p<0.001, while the texture had a significant improvement of p<0.01. Conclusion The results suggested that the application of PLT could be a novel method to enhance wound healing and improve acne scarring after laser skin rejuvenation.

Abstract
Split thickness skin grafting is a common reconstructive technique which carries unavoidable donor site morbidity. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to present the evidence for the use of platelet rich plasma as an adjunct to donor site wound healing. A comprehensive literature search was performed, according to PRISMA guidelines from inception to August 2020, for studies regarding platelet rich plasma and skin graft donor site healing. Animal studies, case series of less than three cases and studies reporting histological outcomes only were excluded. The literature search identified 114 articles. After applying the exclusion criteria, four randomised control trials and two case-control studies remained, incorporating a total of 218 wounds in 139 patients. Four out of six studies reported total healing times for donor site wounds. Pooled analysis showed a significant reduction in healing time when donor wounds were treated with PRP versus controls [MD 5.95, 95% CI 5.04-6.85, p < 0.001]. Of the five studies which reported pain at dressing change, four showed significantly reduced pain scores for the platelet rich plasma treated wounds versus control. There were no significant complications recorded in the treated wounds. The current evidence basis for platelet rich plasma in donor site healing is limited by heterogeneous methodology and reporting outcomes and low powered studies. Nevertheless, the preponderance of data supports its use for accelerating wound healing and reducing pain at dressing change. These preliminary findings need to be substantiated with higher powered randomised controlled trials with standardised PRP manufacture and reporting structures.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy has been used in different medical fields, but its effectiveness in burn wound healing remains debatable. In this study, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of the available evidence on burn patients treated with PRP to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the treatment. METHODS Randomized controlled trials evaluating the efficacy of PRP in patients with burn injuries were selected. Eligible retrospective studies were abstracted and assessed for the risk of bias by two reviewers and results of mean time to complete epithelization and wound closure rate in the included studies were analyzed. Studies on the correlation between PRP and burn wound healing published in English or Chinese before March 2020 were retrieved from PubMed. RESULTS Eight studies (including 449 patients) met our inclusion criteria. Qualitative analysis revealed that compared with the control group, the PRP group had significantly better wound closure rates at weeks 2 (mean difference (MD): 12.79 [95% confidence interval (CI): 7.08, 18.49]; I2: 0%; p < 0.0001) and 3 (MD: 12.66 [95% CI: 5.97, 19.34]; I2: 55%; p = 0.0002) and time to complete epithelialization (MD: -3.45 [95% CI: -4.87, -2.04] (days); I2: 0%; p < 0.00001). There was no significant difference in infection rate or graft take rate. CONCLUSIONS PRP application can accelerate wound closure, however, it has no effect on the rates of wound infection and graft take rate.

Abstract
Lyophilized-growth factors (L-GFs), is a new platelet rich plasma (PRP) preparation that is standardized in growth factors concentrations. The aim of this study was to compare the therapeutic efficacy of ablative fractional CO2 laser in combination with L-GFs vs PRP in post-acne scars. This study was conducted on 45 patients presented with facial post-acne scars. Each patient received three sessions of fractional CO2 laser on both sides of the face followed by topical application of L-GFs on one side and conventional PRP on the other side. Assessment was done before and after treatment semiquantitatively by Echella d'Èvaluation Clinique des Cicatrices d'Acné (ECCA) score and qualitatively by Goodman and Baron's qualitative scar (GBQS) scale, in addition to dermoscopic evaluation. The current study reported significant clinical improvement of post-acne scars on both sides of the face evidenced by significant reduction of both ECCA score and GBQS scale with minimal side effects. The degree of clinical improvement and patients' satisfaction were significantly higher with shorter downtime in response to fractional CO2 laser combined with L-GFs rather than its combination with PRP. In conclusion, laser assisted delivery of L-GFs via fractional CO2 laser could be considered a novel successful therapeutic modality for post-acne scars.

Abstract
The complex biology of platelets and their involvement in tissue repair and inflammation have inspired the development of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapies for a broad array of medical needs. However, clinical advances are hampered by the fact that PRP products, doses and treatment protocols are far from being standardized. Freeze-drying PRP (FD-PRP) preserves platelet function, cytokine concentration and functionality, and has been proposed as a consistent method for product standardization and fabrication of an off-the-shelf product with improved stability and readiness for future uses. Here, we present the current state of experimental and clinical FD-PRP research in the different medical areas in which PRP has potential to meet prevailing medical needs. A systematic search, according to PRISMA (Preferred Reported Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines, showed that research is mostly focused on wound healing, i.e., developing combination products for ulcer management. Injectable hydrogels are investigated for lumbar fusion and knee conditions. In dentistry, combination products permit slow kinetics of growth factor release and functionalized membranes for guided bone regeneration.

Abstract
Wound healing requires well-coordinated events including hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. Delays in any of these stages leads to chronic wounds, infections, and hypertrophic scarring. Burn wounds are particularly problematic, and may require intervention to ensure timely progression to reduce morbidity and mortality. To accelerate burn wound healing, Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)1 can be of value, since platelets release growth factor proteins and inorganic polyphosphates (polyP) that may be integral to wound healing. We used polyP-depleted keratinocyte (HaCaT) and fibroblast cell culture models to determine cell proliferation and scratch-wound repair to determine if polyP, platelet lysate, or combined treatment could accelerate wound healing. While polyP and PRP significantly reduced the open scratch-wound area in fibroblasts and keratinocytes, polyP had no effect on keratinocyte or fibroblast proliferation. PRP was also evaluated as a treatment in a murine model of full thickness wound healing in vivo, including a treatment in which PRP was supplemented with purified polyP. PRP induced significantly more rapid re-epithelialization by Day 3. Pure polyP enhanced the effects of PRP on epithelial tongues, which were significantly elongated in the PRP + high-dose polyP treatment groups compared to PRP alone. Thus, PRP and polyP may serve as an effective therapeutic combination for treating wounds.

Abstract
The positive extensive clinical experience with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in different medical areas has prompted researchers to explore clinical opportunities for optimized PRP therapies. PRP is safe but we have to make it more effective. The growing diversity of formulations and presentations enrich the field of PRP research and offer hope to refine clinical indications. Moving toward targeting the right disease phenotypes with the right PRP formulation or combination product (PRP + cell products) can offer opportunities to change treatment options in osteoarthritis and nonhealing wounds. Both are active areas of research that could offer opportunities, although cost efficacy is still an open question. Our position is to believe that these serious disease areas are likely to benefit from PRP therapies.
