Abstract

In the early 20th century, Xu Beihong (1895-1953) and Pan Yuliang (1895-1977), as artists who studied in France, held a significant position in the history of modern Chinese art. Despite this, comprehensive research surrounding these two artistic masters remains insufficient. This paper delves into their artistic journeys and intersections, utilizing Taine's "Three-Factor" Theory and documentary analysis methods to reveal the artistic formation of Xu Beihong and Pan Yuliang's oil paintings. It explores the profound influence of race, milieu, and epoch on the formation of their artistic creations. Through a multidimensional analysis of these two early 20th-century Chinese artists who studied in France, this research aims to provide new insights and theoretical support for future artistic creation and academic research by analyzing the artwork using Taine's "Three-Factor" Theory.

Keywords : Early 20th Century, Chinese Artists in France, Taine's "Three-Factor" Theory, Artistic Formation, Influencing Factors.

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.
