Abstract

This article discusses the impact of digital technology, especially Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR), on interior design aesthetics. The industry of design has been transformed by VR and AR in the sense that clients can now be immersed in the walkthroughs, visualization, and experimentation of new designs in real time. These tools improve collaboration, cut down the time needed to make decisions, and even allow designers to be more creative. The paper highlights that VR allows such simulation in which clients can interact in an environment and make use of the spatial layouts and materials without having them actually built. Similarly, AR aids in the making of decisions and selections as it combines the facets of concept and reality and overlays digital elements into physical spaces. These advanced technologies make it possible to fuse cultural and personal aesthetics, creating ideal designs that are both meaningful and practical. The possible challenges, such as accessibility and cost, among others, appear not to be a hindrance to the greatest potential that VR and AR have in terms of interior design. Finally, this article also emphasizes the role of these digital tools in transforming the future of interior design where space, technology, and imagination allow one to create extraordinary spaces.

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.
