Abstract

As an art form rich in emotional healing, the analysis of artistic expression and healing elements in the design of picture books is particularly important. Therefore, the topic of analyzing the artistic expressions and healing elements in the design of picture books is studied. According to the expression style and formal characteristics of picture books, surrealistic colors are expressed. Then, we analyze the healing elements of picture book form design in terms of the healing power of color and atmosphere, the narrative healing elements of image and story, and the healing experience elements of interaction and participation. Through the above research, we aim to break the boundaries of the traditional reading mode, find the resonance in the colorful images and heart-warming stories, and realize the emotional healing.

Keywords : Picture Book Morphological Design; Artistic Expressions; Analysis of Healing Elements; Color and Atmosphere; Image and Story.

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.
