Abstract
Since the 20th century, Chinese painting has evolved under Western influences, diversifying its development. Art interpretation now transcends technical mastery to probe deeper into the essence of art. This paper explores the emergence and evolution of Chinese surrealism in the first half of the 20th century, examining its international influences, notable artists, and cultural integration. It delves into the interplay between tradition and modernity, surrealism's role in contemporary interactive art, and its fusion with traditional cultural elements, revealing the distinctiveness of Chinese art and the profound impact of surrealism on Chinese culture.

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.
