We sought to identify the health professionals involved in diabetic foot and their tasks in Japan, where no podiatrists exist. This cross-sectional study used the Japanese Nationwide Survey on Foot Ulcer Management dataset, consisting of 249 medical doctors and 680 allied health professionals. The types of health professionals involved in the diabetic foot were identified, and the tasks performed by each professional were compared within subgroups (medical doctors and allied health professionals). We found that the primary medical doctors involved in diabetic foot care in Japan were plastic surgeons (33.5%), dermatologists (21%), cardiovascular/vascular surgeons (15.2%), and cardiologists (12.1%). Nurses were the main allied health professionals (80%), and the rest consisted of prosthetists/orthotists (7.6%), physical/occupational therapists (5.9%), and clinical engineering technologists (3.6%). Medical doctors performed tasks related to their specialties significantly more than others (p < 0.001); however, they also engaged in tasks outside of their specialty, such as plastic surgeons performing preventive foot care (72%). Among allied health professionals, clinical engineering technologists performed more vascular assessments (p < 0.001), and half were engaged in wound management, preventive foot care, and self-foot care education. In conclusion, the type and proportion of health professionals in our study differed from those in countries with podiatrists, and many performed tasks outside their specialties. This is the first nationwide cross-sectional study of diabetic foot care in a country without podiatrists and is unique in examining multiple specialists/professionals in one study.</p>","PeriodicalId":23864,"journal":{"name":"Wound Repair and Regeneration","volume":" ","pages":"630-637"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141617232","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A search was conducted on 21 August 2023, by the first and second authors independently from 1985 to August 2023 using PubMed, MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, Scopus and CINAHL. The following MeSH terms were used: 'Keloid', 'Risk' and 'Genetic'. Two researchers independently searched for studies based on titles and abstracts and screened filtered articles by reviewing full text. If no agreement could be reached, a third senior author designated whether the article should be included. We used the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses 2020 statement as the basis of our organisation. Human studies with genetic analysis to determine an association of a protein or gene to keloidogenesis were selected for inclusion. Studies in languages other than English, reviews, conference articles, and book chapters were excluded. Fifty studies met inclusion criteria. The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) system was broadly implicated, and the DRB1*15 allele was associated with an increased risk of keloid in three separate ethnic groups. Some HLA Class I alleles were associated with keloid in one population but not in others. Additionally, polymorphisms in the E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase (NEDD4) signal cascade and vitamin D receptor (VDR) have been implicated in diverse groups. No current genetic test can predict keloid risk. Our review identified candidate predisposing genes, including NEDD4, VDR and components of the HLA system.

Histone posttranslational modification patterns are important epigenetic processes that control various biological activities. This study was designed to investigate the effects of histone lactylation on HS and the underlying mechanism. Western blot was used to analyse the lactylation level in HS patients and fibroblasts (HSFs). In vitro experiments, western blot, cell counting kit-8, and immunofluorescence staining were performed to detect the collagen level, cell viability, and autophagy, respectively. The relationship between snai2 (SLUG) and phosphatase and tensin homologue (PTEN) was assessed by RNA immunoprecipitation and dual-luciferase reporter assays. The results showed that the histone lactylation level was upregulated in HS tissues and HSFs. HSFs showed increased collagen production and cell viability, and decreased autophagy. Silencing of lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA) promoted the transcription of PTEN by inhibiting SLUG, thus promoting autophagy. Knockdown of LDHA inhibited collagen deposition and cell viability, and increased autophagy in HSFs, and the results were reversed after PTEN inhibition. In summary, histone lactylation inhibited the transcription activity of PTEN by promoting SLUG, thereby suppressing autophagy and promoting collagen deposition and cell viability of HSFs, which might provide effective therapeutic strategies in HS.</p>","PeriodicalId":23864,"journal":{"name":"Wound Repair and Regeneration","volume":" ","pages":"725-734"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141065976","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using label-free proteomics, plaMSCs and their exosomes were analysed for proteome taxonomic content in order to explore the underlying effective components mechanism of plaMSCs-Ex in diabetic wound healing. Differentially expressed proteins enriched in plaMSCs-Ex were identified and underwent bioinformatics analysis including GO annotation, KEGG pathway enrichment, gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) and protein-protein interaction analysis (PPI). Results showed that the proteins enriched in plaMSCs-Ex are significantly involved in extracellular matrix organisation, epithelium morphogenesis, cell growth, adhesion, proliferation and angiogenesis.
