Abstract

Emotional robots, as a new research hotspot in the field of intelligent robotics research, can interact with human beings in the field of life services, social management, etc., and begin to become confidants, companions, and even family members. From the perspective of emotional interaction, this paper explains that couple robots bring the Valley of Horror effect to human culture, and also relieve social phobia and loneliness, and assist the development of human civilization, but conflict with the traditional concept of marriage and monogamy. The main issues regarding the use and ethics of couple robots are the algorithmic vortex of intimacy, the privacy leakage of emotional relationship data, the paradox of virtual and real emotional relationships, and the aversion to real intimacy. It is proposed that theoretical propositions such as positive psychology and positive technology should be fully utilized to prevent and avoid the ethical risks that may arise from couple robots by making them artificial moral actors, delineating the bottom line of research and development and application, promoting the development and advancement of ethical norms, and establishing an all-encompassing risk prevention system.

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.
