Abstract

In modern society, “Manas” holds a significant role as the brilliant gem of Chinese culture. Through distinctive plots and themes, this epic demonstrates the distinct artistic attractiveness of the Kirghiz people while including their rich historical and cultural significance. Multimedia and digital technologies have made it possible for people in modern society to more effectively disseminate this epic and increase the number of people who are aware of and drawn to the allure of traditional Chinese culture. In addition to being a cultural gem, the epic poem “Manas” also represents people’s spiritual prosperity, which is crucial to the moral and cultural development of modern civilization. A thorough analysis of this epic can uncover its underlying significance and encourage Chinese culture’s innovation and legacy.

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.
