Abstract
The researchers have tried to examine the expansion in the Indian Criminal Justice system based upon the complexities of gender inclusions leading to legislative amendments which were greatly a product of the judicial interpretations. Many new gender sensitive legislations emerged which widened the scope of existing laws that not only protected women, children and LGBTQAI+ but also addressed offences against them while granting them rights for basic human existence. However, there are several unanswered questions of gender equality which the researchers have tried to analyze through comprehensive study of the existing legislations and judicial interpretations. This paper seeks to evaluate the importance of new laws, their impact on the Indian Society considering the social, cultural and the procedural obstacles which still hinder the effective enforcement as well as the further development of gender- neutral laws in India and suggests remedies which would be helpful in bridging the gap between transformative legislations and the societal realities.

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.
