A method of treating a chronic wound may comprise applying to the wound a first scaffold comprising an electrospun polymer fiber. The electrospun fiber may comprise a polymer selected from the group consisting of polyglycolic acid, poly(lactide-co-caprolactone), polylactic acid, polycaprolactone, copolymers thereof, and combinations thereof. The first scaffold may have a thickness from about 50 μm to about 1 mm, a length from about 1 cm to about 20 cm, and a width from about 1 cm to about 15 cm. The method may further comprise keeping the first scaffold on the chronic wound for a time period of about 3 days to about 21 days. After the time period passes, the chronic wound may have a decreased planimetric area.

A resin composition including: a magnetic fluid that includes magnetic particles, a dispersant, and a dispersion medium; and a resin or precursor thereof that includes, in a molecule thereof, at least one partial structure selected from the group consisting of a diene skeleton, a silicone skeleton, a urethane skeleton, a 4- to 7-membered ring lactone skeleton, an alkyl group having from 6 to 30 carbon atoms and an alkylene group having from 6 to 30 carbon atoms, a production method thereof, a resin composition molded body obtained by using the resin composition, and a production method thereof.

Porous and microporous parts prepared by additive manufacturing as disclosed herein are useful in medical and non-medical applications. The parts are prepared from a composition containing both a solvent soluble component and a solvent insoluble component. After a part is printed by an additive manufacturing process it is exposed to solvent to extract solvent soluble component away from the printed part, resulting in a part having surface cavities.

A manufacturing process forms a bored hollow lumen. The manufacturing process includes providing a solid rod of a bioresorbable material and boring a hole axially through the solid rod. The manufacturing process also includes modifying surface defects formed on a luminal surface by the boring, the luminal surface defining the hole, thereby forming the bored hollow lumen. A bored hollow lumen includes a lumen wall including a bioresorbable material. The lumen wall has an abluminal surface and a luminal surface. The luminal surface defines a bore through the bored hollow lumen. The bioresorbable material has a uniform crosslinking density.
