Enhanced Healing of Diabetic Wounds by Subcutaneous Administration of Human Umbilical Cord Derived Stem Cells and Their Conditioned Media by Chandrama Shrestha, Liling Zhao, Ke Chen, Honghui He, Zhaohui Mo

“…Delayed wound healing animal models were established by making a standard wound on the dorsum of eighteen db/db mice, which were divided into three groups with six mice in each: groups I, II, and III received PBS, UC-MSC, and CM, respectively. UC-MSC and their CM significantly accelerated wound closure compared to PBS-treated wounds, and it was most rapid in CM-injected wounds. …”

Generation of vector vortex pin-like beams and their propagation in turbulent atmosphere by Jia Li, Huijian Liang, Gaofeng Wu, Peipei Peng, Fei Wang, Yangjian Cai

“…Our simulations demonstrate that, under identical conditions, VVPBs exhibit lower scintillation indices and beam wander compared to pin beams (PBs) over long distances. Furthermore, we experimentally generated VVPBs and PBs and measured their scintillation indices and beam wander as they traversed thermally induced turbulence in a laboratory setting. …”
