Journal ArticleDOI

Multi-omic analysis reveals divergent molecular events in scarring and regenerative wound healing.

TL;DR: The divergent molecular events driving skin wound cells toward scarring or regenerative fates are reported and Trps1 is identified as a key regulatory gene that is necessary and partially sufficient for wound regeneration.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Interplay of Mechanical Stress, Strain, and Stiffness at the Keloid Periphery Correlates with Increased Caveolin-1/ROCK Signaling and Scar Progression.

TL;DR: It is concluded that changes in human position are strongly correlated with mechanical loading of the predilection sites, which leads to increased mechanical strain in the peripheral tissue surrounding keloids, suggesting a novel mechanism for keloid progression.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Mechanomodulatory Device to Minimize Incisional Scar Formation

TL;DR: This is the first device that is able to precisely control the mechanical environment of incisional wounds and has been demonstrated in multiple clinical trials to significantly reduce scar formation after surgery.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microvascular free-tissue transfer for traumatic defects of the upper extremity: a 25-year experience.

TL;DR: The preferred timing for microvascular free-tissue transfers to the upper extremity is concluded to be 6 to 21 days post injury.
