Abstract
This study examines the impact of leaders’ Behavioral Selection Assessments (BSA) on the performance of Non-Profit Organizations (NPOs) in Saudi Arabia. Amid the rapid growth of the Saudi non-profit sector under Vision 2030, organizations face increasing pressure to recruit qualified leaders. While functional selection assessments (FSA) remain widely used, behavioral assessments may offer stronger predictive validity for leadership effectiveness. This research develops and empirically tests a conceptual framework linking BSA, FSA, pressure to hire, and government support variables to NPO performance. Using a quantitative research design, data were collected from senior leaders and HR managers in Saudi NPOs. Regression analysis was conducted to test the proposed hypotheses. Findings indicate that behavioral selection assessments significantly predict organizational performance, while excessive pressure to hire negatively affects performance. Government financial support and regulatory frameworks demonstrate moderating effects. The study contributes to leadership selection literature and offers practical implications for HR governance in the non-profit sector.

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.
