Attention:
For the project, my topic that I would like to write about is a compound right ankle fracture and dislocation. The paper will include how this injury can happen, what are the causes and risk factors for an ankle dislocation. What bones, ligaments or tendons are affected, the symptoms, what studies can determine the fracture/dislocation and the treatment regimen, which will include surgery and physical therapy and how long it will take to recover. Also, will there be any side effects or complications that arise from this injury.

Peer review means that a board of scholarly reviewers in the subject area of the journal, review materials they publish for quality of research and adherence to editorial standards of the journal, before articles are accepted for publication. If you use materials from peer-reviewed publications they have been vetted by scholars in your field for quality and importance. This assures you are being given accurate information that can be supported by experts in the field.
In academic journals the articles submitted are reviewed by scholarly peers. This means that articles are submitted to the editor, and the editor sends the article to reviewers who read and evaluate the article. These reviewers are other scholars who are experts on the subject of the article. Often all traces of the author’s identity are removed from the article draft before it is reviewed and this process is referred to as “blind review.” Because these reviewers are judging the quality of the article, or acting as referees for the quality of the article, you may hear professors call peer-reviewed journals, refereed journals. The high standard of writing, content, and research quality set by article reviewers’ results in the highest quality scholarly articles on your subject, and this is why your professors want you to use these sources. Using these high quality sources will improve the quality of your own work.
