Abstract
The study attempted to analyze the grammatical ambiguities of English sentences for the improvement of awareness of Saudi students of English in Al-Baha University. Data were collected through the means of translation which is assumed to form an effective tactic. Paper-pencil questionnaires were also distributed to students to give their impressions about grammatical ambiguities. Data analysis was intended to give descriptive statistics including percentage score and mean scores along with the computation of coefficient-correlation. The study revealed that Saudi female students varied in their awareness of grammatical ambiguities of English sentences. Results also revealed that translation is an effective tool to determine their trouble spots. There were no statistically significant differences between their translation scores according to their questionnaire responses.

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.
