Abstract
This article investigates Secretary—the acclaimed Telugu novel by Yaddanapudi Sulochana Rani—and its 1976 film adaptation by K. S. Prakash Rao, analyzing the way the transition from the page to the screen shifts how the female protagonist is represented and the feminist ethics of the original text. Utilizing Laura Mulvey's male gaze, Elaine Showalter's gynocriticism, and Linda Hutcheon's adaptation theory, the analysis concludes that while Yaddanapudi's Jayanti represents moral virtue and professional independence, Prakash Rao's Jayanti becomes a sentimentalized object of patriarchy that collapses agency within patriarchal visual regimes. By comparing textual evidence in Telugu and filmic representations, this article exposes systematized ways to temper feminist voices in commercial cinema while also exploring larger issues related to author respect, gendered authorship, and adaptation ethics.

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.
