Abstract

In recent years, the rise of artificial intelligence (AI) technology has transformed the way we interface with digital systems. This study investigates the perceptions of  Qassim University LLMs users regarding the opportunities, challenges, and future of LLMs in multilingual translation. This study used a quantitative approach by employing a questionnaire of LLMs. The findings reveal that the participants acknowledge significant advantages of LLMs in speed, cost-effectiveness, and contextual handling, while simultaneously highlighting limitations in cultural understanding and idiomatic expression. The research underscores the necessity of balancing LLM efficiency with the irreplaceable role of human expertise. Findings indicate a collaborative future for LLMs in translation, serving as support tools rather than replacements. Notably, gender significantly influences future outlook, with females exhibiting greater optimism. However, educational level and age show no significant impact. This study emphasizes the need for a nuanced integration of LLMs, recognizing both their transformative potential and inherent limitations to ensure accurate and culturally sensitive communication.

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.
