Abstract
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly reshaping higher education by enabling personalized learning, automating administrative processes, and enhancing research capabilities. While traditional digital platforms have improved access to resources, they often lack adaptability and contextual responsiveness. AI-driven systems, however, offer dynamic content delivery, real-time analytics, and intelligent support for both students and educators. This paper presents a conceptual framework for AI integration in higher education, focusing on three pillars: pedagogical transformation, research innovation, and institutional efficiency. By synthesizing existing literature and proposing structured pathways for implementation, the study highlights opportunities, challenges, and ethical considerations. The findings suggest that AI can serve as a catalyst for inclusive, student-centered, and globally competitive higher education ecosystems.

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.
