Raising Concerns About Podiatry Submissions For An Orthopedic Journal
After recently attending the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgery (ACFAS) Annual Scientific Conference, I feel the topic of research is relevant to discuss.
I thoroughly enjoy each conference I attend and the opportunity to be immersed in an academic and research focused environment. I appreciate all of the hard work from dedicated faculty spending countless hours outside of their clinical duties to compile a 15-minute talk. I also enjoy walking around the poster presentation hall, reviewing the work residents and physicians are eager to present annually. The days following my return are often filled with attempting to decipher my notes and requesting journal articles…

Study Reveals Podiatric Treatment Saves Limbs, Lives + Money
Feet, may not only provide important clues about a person’s overall health, but foot pain, gait problems, and other foot- and ankle-related disorders can affect the whole person. These issues not only impact the knees, hips and back, but are also predicators of bigger problems, like hypertension, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and other costly chronic health conditions.
New Study Shows High Heels are Biggest Culprit of Female Foot Pain

Podiatric researchers apply a healthy skepticism
The pursuit of evidence, long-term, will benefit students and patients, the two faculty members say. “We want students to question the knowledge that’s out there. We want them to be able to look at the anatomy and say, ‘Even though I got the answer right on a test, does that procedure make sense based on what I’m seeing?’’’ Feilmeier says.

Emphasizing The Importance Of Research To Podiatric Residents
When I began residency, research and writing were the last things on my mind. However, some of my proudest moments in my career were when JFAS printed my first article and when my posters were accepted to the ACFAS and Diabetic Limb Salvage (DLS) conferences. I want others to experience this pride and, with just a little extra work and drive, anyone can.
Raising Concerns About Podiatry Submissions For An Orthopedic Journal
The disappointing aspect is there are plenty of patients for both foot and ankle orthopedic surgeons and podiatric physicians. We should be working together to raise the bar of foot and ankle evidence-based medicine to benefit patients, not delegitimizing research and intentionally influencing journal impact factor ratings by not citing one group peer-reviewed published literature and not publishing high-quality studies based solely on the letters after the author’s name. The facts may be leading us down a pathway that appears to be concerning. The question is what do we do about it?
