Wound care in hard-to-reach populations: rough sleepers
Br J Nurs. 2024 Feb 22;33(4):S34-S37. doi: 10.12968/bjon.2024.33.4.S34.ABSTRACTPeople sleeping rough commonly develop wounds and other skin disorders. Wounds vary and develop for multiple reasons. They include acute wounds such as burns, infected injection sites, abscesses and cellulitis, as well as chronic wounds such as pressure ulcers; rough sleepers have a high prevalence of lower limb wounds. Skin and soft tissue infections are common, especially in people who inject drugs via subcutaneous or intramuscular routes. Emergency departments are often the pathways into healthcare for homeless people as traditional health an...

Tryptanthrin promotes pressure ulcers healing in mice by inhibiting macrophage-mediated inflammation via cGAS/STING pathways
CONCLUSION: Tryp could reduce the release of inflammatory cytokines, and induce RAW 264.7 polarization to M2 phenotype by targeting cGAS/STING/TBK1 pathways. In summary, Tryp may be a novel medicine for the treatment of PUs in the future.PMID:38382260 | DOI:10.1016/j.intimp.2024.111687 (Source: International Immunopharmacology)
