Abstract

Chinese calligraphy is not only an act of "natural writing", but also a creation of "visual art".Of the two attributes, which one occupies the status of the noumenon has become our concern and debate.Understanding and grasping the morphology generated by calligraphy ontology is conducive to clarifying its historical development, way of existence and relationship with society.The instrumental value and aesthetic value of calligraphy are the two wings of its ontology, which reflect the essential characteristics, social functions and development momentum of calligraphy.The creation tools, material carriers and distribution methods of calligraphy have formed specific forms such as calligraphy style, momentum and tasting in the historical context, gradually melting the two attributes of "natural writing" and "visual art" into one pot. "Epigraphy", "SteleTheory", "Model Calligraphy", "Seal and Clerical Script", "Skill&Clumsiness" and "Hidden Edge"not only exist as theoretical vocabulary of calligraphy art, but also cultural representation of writing behavior

Keywords : Natural Writing; Artistic Consciousness; Instrumental Value; Aesthetic Value.

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.
