Interactions of cytokines, growth factors, and proteases in acute and chronic wounds
Abstract
A healing wound represents a complex series of interactions between cells, soluble mediators, and extracellular matrix. Within this multifaceted environment, there are multiple regulatory points which control the ordered series of events that lead to normal tissue repair. An alteration in this physiologic network can lead to the development of a chronic wound. This article presents an update on the numerous mediators that exist within the wound environment in both acute normal healing and chronic nonhealing wounds. We also present a hypothesis which may provide a conceptual pathophysiologic mechanism with which to understand all chronic wounds.

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.
