Abstract

The relationship between cultural values and sustainability draws from various accounts and developments in the clothing industry. To date, fundamental developments and progressions mark the evolution of the clothing industry, with the application of environmental ethics implicating fundamental changes and advancements. The present research delved into an intensive investigation of the application of environmental ethics throughout the history of clothing and fashion design. Fundamentally, the environmental ethos has been deliberated to attain ethically driven and environmentally friendly clothing. Unique designs have been implemented in compliance with cultural values. The fundamentals of cultural value in sustainable fashion draw from the role of fashion as a marker of identity and an important aspect of cultural elements of life. The cultural values demanded the limitation of environmental pollution, outsourcing of production, and consideration of alternative and better materials for fashion designs. This relationship entails diverse fundamentals and intricate elements constraining fashion designs within the context of cultural values.

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.
