Abstract
Educational equity is one of the crucial issues of educational development and one of the core theses of sociology of education. For now, cultural capital theory is still the most prevailing narrative, which became an obstacle to exploring the problem "how to be more equitable". It’s necessary to reflect on the limitations of cultural capital narrative and to discover a new type of research narrative. This paper firstly deconstructs the cultural capital narrative through theoretical reflection and practical discussion, and then demonstrate the cultural resource narrative’s manifestation and transcendence. Based on the above viewpoints, we propose that it’s critical for the sociology of education to realize narrative reconstruction—from “cultural capital narrative” to “cultural resource narrative”, which could be beneficial to the practice of “high quality education equity”.

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.
