We have previously shown that stromal cell-derived factor-1α (SDF-1α) is downregulated within diabetic cutaneous wounds, and that direct application of recombinant SDF-1α increases wound closure rates, neovascularization, and endothelial progenitor cell (EPC) recruitment. However, increased wound levels of exogenous SDF-1α results in elevated systemic levels of this proangiogenic chemokine that raises concerns for tumorigenesis and inflammation. We now seek to test the efficacy of a novel, safer cell-based therapy (CBT) employing ex vivo primed bone marrow-derived stem cells (BMDSC) with SDF-1α. We also elucidate the mechanism of action of this new approach for accelerating diabetic wound healing.

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 5. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 18 October 2022.
All research outputs
#6,930,204
of 25,374,917 outputs
Outputs from Annals of Surgery
#4,033
of 9,045 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#50,918
of 190,992 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Annals of Surgery
#23
of 74 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,917 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 72nd percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 9,045 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 13.4. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 55% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 190,992 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 73% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 74 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 68% of its contemporaries.
