Abstract

In the realm of Chinese cultural television (TV), the integration of traditional media with modern communication technologies presents unique opportunities and challenges. This study investigates how various TV and online audio-visual programs, such as cultural shows, variety programs, and short video formats, strategically utilize visual rhetoric, topic selection, and emotional expression to portray a positive image of China internationally. Drawing insights from recent developments in media integration and communication strategies, this research aims to analyze and propose effective methods for improving the international appeal and cultural dissemination of Chinese audio-visual literature and art. By examining case studies like China in Classics and Dance Millennium, which highlight different approaches to integrating traditional cultural themes with contemporary media formats, this study contributes to understanding how these programs can effectively resonate with global audiences while promoting a nuanced understanding of Chinese cultural heritage.

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.
