The association between serum vitamin D and mortality in adult patients with burns is the focus of a prospective cohort study of 205 patients. This month also features analyses of the cost-effectiveness of subepidermal moisture measurement to prevent hospital-acquired pressure ulcers, as well as that of a nitric oxide-generating medical device in managing hard-to-heal diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs). DFUs also feature in a randomised controlled trial (RCT) of biofilm detection-based wound management. A non-inferiority RCT of two contact layer dressings for the treatment of acute wounds is described, as is the treatment of hard-to-heal ulcerative wounds with manually separated allogeneic platelets mixed with cryoprecipitate which features in three case reports.  A further case series details the treatment of infected wounds with cold atmospheric plasma, and negative pressure wound therapy for colorectal incisions is the focus of a systematic review and meta-analysis of controlled trials.
 
This month also features the North American Supplement in which a clinical outcomes comparison study examines the use of multimodal botanical hydrogel in wound healing, a randomised controlled trial evaluates a novel skin closure device to accelerate early cosmesis in orthopaedic surgical incision, insights are shared on the bacteriological profiles of diabetic ulcers in cases of major limb amputation in the Solomon Islands.
 
In the online-only Research Supplement, vacuum-assisted closure in secondary wound healing after pilonidal sinus surgery is described, and a letter to the editor discusses pressure injuries and sarcopenia.
