Abstract

Cutaneous wound healing is a complex process encompassing a number of overlapping events including leukocyte recruitment, matrix deposition, epithelialization, and ultimately resolution of inflammation with the formation of a mature scar. Morbidity associated with age-related delayed wound healing imposes an enormous social and financial burden; unless improved wound care strategies are developed the projected relative and absolute increase in the elderly population will further exacerbate this problem. In recent years insight has been gained into the impact of ageing on cellular and tissue responses, resulting from impaired cytokine signal transduction, unchecked inflammation, an altered balance of protein synthesis and degradation, and subsequent downstream effects on the rate and quality of the wound healing response. Further understanding of the complex interaction between the ageing cell and its microenvironment is essential in order to develop focussed therapeutic strategies to improve healing in the elderly.

Phagocytic activity of wound macrophages in aged mice is decreased compared with young mice.
“Moreover, the phagocytic activity of wound macrophages in aged mice is decreased compared with young mice, which may account for increased production of proinflammatory cytokines, including IL-1, IL-6, TNF-α, but decreased secretion of VEGF [74, 263, 265].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
