Abstract

This article explores the deep and changing relationship between music and literature, showing how they are connected through history, style, and culture. Music and literature have always been affected and improved by each other, from old oral practices to modern multidisciplinary projects. The article shows how they can make people feel things, think, and shape human creativity and cultural memory. Historical milestones such as Renaissance madrigals, Romantic Lieder, and 20th-century protest songs underscore the enduring relevance of their union. At the same time, the cross-cultural dimensions of African griot traditions, Indian ragas, and Latin American corridos illustrate their universal significance. In the modern era, digital technology, spoken word poetry, and multimedia storytelling have enlarged this connection, showing its flexibility and originality. The fusion of music and literature enhances artistic expression and fosters empathy, cultural understanding, and a deeper appreciation of the human condition. These creative genres inspire, connect, and change across time and culture by combining their qualities. This article invites readers to reflect on the enduring significance of this interplay and its evolving role in shaping the future of artistic and cultural expression.

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.
