Journal of Foot and Ankle Research was launched one year ago, and a number of its key achievements are highlighted in this editorial. Although the journal is underpinned by professional bodies associated with the podiatry professions in the UK and Australasia, its content is aimed at the wider foot and ankle research community. Nevertheless, the journal's achievements over the past year reflect the development of research in the profession of podiatry. From this perspective, the journal may be viewed as contributing to the overall attainment of some of the profession's key goals and strategic aims over the last decade, across the UK and Australasia. The journal has also witnessed policy changes in the last year, and these are discussed - notably, the decision not to accept case reports for publication. We also report on a few of the key metrics, providing readers with a summary of the journal's performance over the last year.
《足踝研究杂志》创刊一年,本期特稿重点介绍其主要成果。本刊由英国和澳大拉西亚地区足病医学相关专业机构支持,但内容面向更广泛的足踝研究群体。然而,本刊过去一年的成果反映了足病医学专业的研究进展。从这个角度看,本刊可被视为助力过去十年间,英国和澳大拉西亚地区该专业的一些关键目标和战略目标的总体实现。本刊还见证了过去一年中的政策变化,我们将对此进行讨论,特别是不再接受病例报告的决定。我们还将介绍部分关键指标,概述本刊过去一年的表现。
