Abstract

The philosophical foundations of Chinese Marxism represent a unique and evolving adaptation of Marxist theory in the historical, cultural, and socio-political context of China. Chinese Marxism emphasizes dialectical materialism and historic materialism, which are central to classical Marxism but adapts these principles to the realities of China's socio-economic situations, together with its conventional Confucian values, the agrarian nature of its society, and its innovative history. The study aims to analyze the intellectual foundations of Chinese Marxism, which includes the junction of human nature and social relations. This investigates how Confucianism, Daoism, and different indigenous philosophies shaped the Chinese information of Marxism, especially regarding morality, social harmony, and individual and communal actions. Asserting that societal ties serve as the foundation for human activity and development, it indicates that modern Chinese philosophers emphasize the social component of human nature while acknowledging a conflict between the social and natural aspects. It explores the case that Chinese Marxism provides a unique framework for comprehending the connection between individual goals and the well-being of the group by crucially analyzing important texts and activities. It additionally emphasizes the philosophical foundations that manual China's current governance and socioeconomic change initiatives. Chinese Marxism remains relevant for addressing the complex interactions between social structures and human goals.

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.
