“…This book reviews the recent literature on the most significant factors that affect wound healing and the potential cellular and/or molecular mechanisms involved. The factors discussed include physiology of wound healing, interferon, stem cells and photobiomodulation, chronic venous ulcer, chronic fistula, bionanomaterials, topical antiseptic agents, including silver and sodium hypochlorite solution, diabetic ulcers, and nutritional supplements such as copper…”

“…This work analyses the relation between social inequality and health by focusing on the social processes and individual mechanisms that construct it within the area of action of the economic sphere, the cultural sphere and the social and territorial sphere. …”

“…In recent years, the unprecedented experimental control of the laws of quantum mechanics has led to the so-called quantum technology revolution, a terminology adopted to refer to the applications in which quantum properties play a prominent role. …”

“…The articles in this Special Issue cover various aspects of this topic, including the localization of parasites within the host, the impact of nutrition and drugs, and the role of the host's immune defense cells in the parasitic response to oxidative and nitrosative stress. Understanding the mechanisms underlying parasitic diseases is crucial for developing innovative treatments that can target parasites' defense against oxidative stress. …”

“…With thorough analysis of different results and impacts of governmental policies, the authors examine the direction of the global economy after the pandemic ends.The volume:Analyzes the risks and effectiveness of the policy strategies taken by political regimes within states of central Europe;Probes into the changes in the functioning of post-pandemic society, especially the limitations of human rights due to state coercion and corruption risks;Understands issues related to the law-making process, healthcare policy, digitisation of state institutions and key processes carried out by entities of the system of public authority, and the establishment of principles and mechanisms of cooperation between the state and the business environment;Distinguishes the approaches of central and local administrations and of public authorities and citizens to the pandemic phenomenon;Assesses the actions taken by NATO and the national armed forces in the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic, with particular emphasis on the situation in the Visegrad Group countries.A timely study, this will be of great interest to scholars and researchers of political theory, sociology, public health and social care, governance, public policy, security studies and public administration…”

“…Evolution - both the fact that it occurred and the theory describing the mechanisms by which it occurred - is an intrinsic and central component in modern biology. …”

“…Rather than seeing technologies in traditional mechanical terms, this reader explores by way of the moving image the various cultural, social, political, economic and ideological dimensions that are essential to an understanding of technology. …”

“…Standard models in economics and finance usually assume that people are rational, self-interested maximisers, effectively co-ordinated via the invisible hand of the price mechanism. Whilst these approaches produce tractable, simple models, they cannot fully capture the uncertainties and instabilities that affect everyday choices in today's complex world. …”
