Abstract

This article explores the relationship between glass craftsmanship and humanistic spirit. Taking the glass works of Deng Gong as an example, it analyzes the humanistic philosophical thoughts and aesthetic expressions contained in them. By studying the history and development of glass craftsmanship, we discovered elements related to humanism in glass works, such as care for human nature and the pursuit of harmony between nature and mankind. As an art form, lampwork glass works convey the aesthetic value of humanistic philosophy through its unique skills and expressions. In the works, we can see the thinking and expression of human emotions, interpersonal relationships and social issues. Glass craftsmanship and humanistic spirit influence each other. Glass craftsmanship interprets and transmits humanistic philosophical ideas, while humanistic philosophical ideas inspire the innovation and development of glass craftsmanship. By studying the relationship between glass craftsmanship and humanistic spirit, we can better understand and appreciate the humanistic philosophy and aesthetic value conveyed by Deng Gong’s glass works.

Abstract

Atherosclerotic disease significantly impacts patients with type 2 diabetes, who often present with recalcitrant peripheral ulcers. The angiosome model of the foot presents an opportunity to perform direct angiosome-targeted endovascular interventions to maximise both wound healing and limb salvage. A systematic review was performed, with 17 studies included in the final review. Below-the-knee endovascular interventions present significant technical challenges, with technical success depending on the length of lesion being treated and the number of angiosomes that require treatment. Wound healing was significantly improved with direct angiosome-targeted angioplasty, as was limb salvage, with a significant increase in survival without major amputation. Indirect angioplasty, where the intervention is applied to collateral vessels to the angiosomes, yielded similar results to direct angiosome-targeted angioplasty. Applying the angiosome model of the foot in direct angiosome-targeted angioplasty improves outcomes for patients with recalcitrant diabetic foot ulcers in terms of primary wound healing, mean time for complete wound healing and major amputation-free survival.
