The initial surgical plan in all cases was to excise the SMG with preservation of the facial artery and without drain insertion.ResultsSMG excision without drain insertion was successfully achieved in 28 patients who were discharged on the same day.

In all cases, facial vessels were preserved, and complete gland excision was achieved.

However, despite a decade of advances in interprofessional (IP) research, policy, and competency frameworks, IPCP does not always occur in practice. One reason may be the influence of a clinician's identity in an IP context. The purpose of this scoping review was to understand the nature of IP identity in healthcare clinicians. The PRISMA framework was used to support a comprehensive search strategy and screening of 1746 articles. Inclusion criteria included original research, theses, and reviews, a primary focus on IP identity or professional identity (PI) in an IP team, and a focus on health professionals, including students transitioning to practice. Ninety-five papers met the eligibility criteria, though once charted, just four of the 95 papers focused on IP identity in clinicians. Three further papers examined shared team identity, 25 papers referred to, but did not focus on IP identity, and the remaining 63 papers explored PI in an IP team. While limited studies on clinician IP identity restrict conclusive findings, patterns were identified to direct further research on the nature of IP identity in clinicians. These include values and beliefs, individual and personal factors, profession and professional experience, education, socialization, context, leadership, and the process of IP identity development. While identity is undeniably central to being a clinician, the values, beliefs, attributes, and experiences that contribute to clinician IP identity, how clinician IP identity develops, and factors that influence IP identity remain unclear. The results of this review highlight the value of further investigation of the nature of IP identity, the interplay between PI and IP identity, and identity in an IP context.</p>","PeriodicalId":1,"journal":{"name":"Accounts of Chemical Research","volume":" ","pages":"871-882"},"PeriodicalIF":17.7,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"40540194","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, the main purpose of this study was to evaluate the wound healing ability of BNPs and in the next step the suitability of honey as a solvent for these nanoparticles. <b>Methods:</b> In this experimental study, an excisional wound injury model was developed in adult male BALB/c mice (n = 60) by creative two equal-sized wounds (5 mm) on either side of their back midline. The animals were allocated into five groups (n = 12 each) as untreated control (U), honey (H), polyethylene glycol (P), and (BNPs) dissolved in honey or polyethylene glycol (H + BNPs, P + BNPs). Animals have received their relative topical treatments twice per day for 14 consecutive days. Tissue sampling was carried out on days 4, 7, 10, and 14. The tissue sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin and Trichrome-Masson staining methods. The histomorphological parameters including inflammatory cells infiltration, fibroblasts, re-epithelialization, granulation formation, and collagenases were evaluated in all tissue sections. Data were analyzed by SPSS 16 software. Comparison between the groups was performed by one-way analysis of variance following Tukey's post-hoc test. Compared to the control group, BNPs showed significant wound healing activities with lower inflammatory cells infiltration, higher fibroblastosis and new epithelium thickness, and greater granulation area and collagen fibers density in the ulcer bed. In addition, honey as a solvent synergistically increased the wound healing activity of the studied nanoparticle.
