Abstract
This research aims to explore the experiential learning of Gambang Kromong as a bridge between generations and a cultural preservation strategy in higher education, prompted by declining youth interest and limited curriculum integration. Using a participatory case study in the Music Education Program at Jakarta State University, data were gathered from 45 students, two maestros, and two lecturers through observation, interviews, and document analysis. Findings identified ten essential elements of Gambang Kromong requiring preservation and demonstrated the effectiveness of experiential learning in enhancing student engagement, critical understanding, technical skills, and cultural appreciation. The study confirms the role of higher education as a living laboratory for cultural revitalization. The model successfully deconstructed learning hierarchies, fostered cultural empathy, and developed student agency as active cultural actors. Recommendations include sustained curriculum integration, development of digital platforms, educator training, supportive policies, community collaboration, and further research.

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.
