Abstract
This research endeavors to meticulously evaluate the pivotal role played by music education in shaping the neural architecture of young children and, consequently, its implications for overall brain development. Exploring advanced neuroimaging machineries such as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and electroencephalography (EEG), the study aims to pinpoint specific neural pathways and regions activated during musical engagement. The methodology of this study integrates both quantitative and qualitative approaches, drawing on a diverse range of literature from fields such as neuroscience, psychology, and musical education. It was seen in the results that music education program during early childhood significantly contributes to the enhancement of cognitive functions. Implications of this research extend to educational policy and practice. By providing empirical evidence supporting the significance of music education, it advocates for the integration of comprehensive music programs in early childhood curricula.

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.
