Method: Over an observation period of two years, acute wounds with at least one risk factor for chronification, as well as hard-to-heal wounds were treated for 180 seconds three times per week with CAP. CAP treatment was additional to standard wound care. Photographs were taken for wound documentation. The wound sizes before the first CAP treatment, after four weeks, after 12 weeks and at wound closure/end of observation time were determined using image processing software, and analysed longitudinally for the development of wound size. Results: A total of 27 wounds (19 hard-to-heal and eight acute wounds) with a mean wound area of 15cm 2 and a mean wound age of 49 months were treated with CAP and analysed. All (100%) of the acute wounds and 68% of the hard-to-heal wounds healed after an average treatment duration of 14.2 weeks. At the end of the observation period, 21% of hard-to-heal wounds were not yet closed but were reduced in size by >80%. In 11% of the hard-to-heal wounds (n=2) therapy failed. Conclusion: The results suggested a beneficial effect of additional CAP therapy on wound healing.

To promote muscle repair and regeneration, different strategies have been developed within the last century and especially during the last few decades, including surgical techniques, physical therapy, biomaterials, and muscular tissue engineering as well as cell therapy. Still, there is a great need to develop new methods and materials, which promote skeletal muscle repair and functional regeneration. In this review, we give a comprehensive overview over the epidemiology of muscle tissue loss, highlight current strategies in clinical treatment, and discuss novel methods for muscle regeneration and challenges for their future clinical translation."],["dc.description.sponsorship","Open-Access-Publikationsfonds 2018"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1155/2018/1984879"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/15108"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/66247"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/13234"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.relation.issn","2314-6133"],["dc.rights","Goescholar"],["dc.rights.uri","https://goescholar.uni-goettingen.de/licenses"],["dc.title","Current Methods for Skeletal Muscle Tissue Repair and Regeneration"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

In this study, we addressed the question whether the microcirculation enhancement is restricted to the tissue in direct contact with plasma or if adjacent tissue might also benefit.\r\n\r\nMethods:\r\nA dielectric barrier discharge (DBD)-generated CAP device exhibiting an electrode area of 27.5 cm² was used to treat the anterior lower leg of ten healthy subjects for 4.5 minutes. Subsequently, hyperspectral imaging (HIS) was performed to measure tempo-spatially resolved characteristics of microcirculation parameters in superficial (up to 1 mm) and deeper (up to 5 mm) skin layers.\r\n\r\nResults:\r\nIn the tissue area covered by the plasma electrode, DBD-CAP treatment enhances most of the perfusion parameters. The maximum oxygen saturation (StO2) increase reached 8 %, the near infrared perfusion index (NIR) increases by a maximum of 4 %, and the maximum tissue hemoglobin (THI) increase equaled 14 %. Tissue water index (TWI) was lower in both the control and the plasma group thus not affected by the DBD-CAP treatment. Yet, our study reveals that adjacent tissue is hardly affected by the enhancements in the electrode area and the effects are locally confined. \r\n\r\nConclusion:\r\nApplication of DBD-CAP to the lower leg resulted in enhancement of cutaneous microcirculation that extended 1 h beyond the treatment period with localization to the tissue area in direct contact with the cold plasma. This suggests the possibility of tailoring application schemes for topically confined enhancement of skin microcirculation, e.g. in the treatment of chronic wounds."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1159/000527700"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/118137"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","DOI-Import GROB-621"],["dc.relation.eissn","1660-5535"],["dc.relation.issn","1660-5527"],["dc.title","Topically confined enhancement of cutaneous microcirculation by cold plasma"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

In this study, the localized vibrotactile sensation of the arm-shoulder region was quantified in 10 able-bodied subjects. For this analysis, the six relevant dermatomes (C3-T2) and three segments—the lower arm, the upper arm, and the shoulder region were studied. For psychometric evaluation, tasks resulting in the quantification of sensation threshold, just noticeable difference, Weber fraction, and perception of dynamically changing vibrotactile stimuli were performed. We found that healthy subjects could reliably detect vibration in all tested regions at low amplitude (2–6% of the maximal amplitude of commonly used vibrotactors). The detection threshold was significantly lower in the lower arm than that in the shoulder, as well as ventral in comparison with the dorsal. There were no significant differences in Weber fraction (20%) detectable between the studied locations. A compensatory tracking task resulted in a significantly higher average rectified error in the shoulder than that in the upper arm, while delay and correlation coefficient showed no difference between the regions. Here, we presented a conclusive map of the vibrotactile sense of the healthy upper limb. These data give an overview of the sensory bandwidth that can be achieved with vibrotactile stimulation at the arm and may help in the design of vibrotactile feedback interfaces (displays) for the hand/arm/shoulder-region."],["dc.description.sponsorship","Open-Access-Publikationsfonds 2022"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.3389/fnins.2022.958415"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/118203"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","DOI-Import GROB-621"],["dc.relation.eissn","1662-453X"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/"],["dc.title","Vibrotactile mapping of the upper extremity: Absolute perceived intensity is location-dependent; perception of relative changes is not"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
