Abstract
This review article focuses on the correlation between life satisfaction and physical health among retired female athletes during their post-career life. Combining a thorough literature review, this article highlights growth factors relevant to life satisfaction and physical health after retirement. Research findings reveal that this association is quite intricate, and psychological, behavioral, and social factors all play major roles in influencing these elements. However, understanding this relationship is very important for the health of retired female athletes. The findings underline the significance of goal-oriented policies that should be used to help female athletes adapt to retired life and maintain, or even improve, their quality of life. Nevertheless, further efforts must be made to fill the gaps in this research review and construct better strategies for the optimization of retirement benefits offered to retired female athletes.

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.
