The microbial basis of impaired wound healing: differential roles for pathogens, “bystanders”, and strain-level diversification in clinical outcomes
2018-09-27
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Chronic, non-healing wounds are a major complication of diabetes associated with high morbidity and health care expenditures estimated at $9-13 billion annually in the US. Though microbial infection and critical colonization is hypothesized to impair healing and contribute to severe outcomes such as amputation, antimicrobial therapy is inefficacious and the role of microbes in tissue repair, reg...
