Pathophysiology Abstract Guidelines Required Texts: — Van Meter, K and Hubert, R Gould’s Pathophysiology for the Health Professions. Elsevier. An abstract is a brief summary of a research article about a paragraph in length. Only articles pertaining to a disease or disease treatment from peer-reviewed journals can be used. If you don’t know what a peer-reviewed journal is, ask a reference librarian at Henderson Library! They would love to help. Peer-reviewed journals require that the article be reviewed by experts to verify its validity and accuracy. A few examples of peer-reviewed journals are: The American Journal of Nursing, The Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), Science, and Nature. Articles from websites such as “Medical News Weekly”, “The Nature Freak’s Nutritional Blog and Cat Fancy”, and “Healthy Can Be Fun!” are not acceptable because there is no quality control over what gets published. You are required to submit two abstracts for this class. They should be typed, single-spaced, and roughly a paragraph in length. Be sure to include the purpose, a description of the sample, results, and conclusions. Also, you are required to provide a copy of the abstract that was published with the article you have chosen. DO NOT send or attach a link to the article. You must send the actual abstract or article as a photo file or .pdf. This is to ensure that you didn’t simply copy-and-paste the original article abstract and try to pass it off as your own. Original abstracts and your abstract must be submitted electronically. I will not accept hardcopies. You will need to submit four separate files: Your abstract #1, the original abstract from the first article you read, your abstract #2, and the original abstract from the second article you read. Abstracts are due by 6:00p on 5/2 but I will accept them at any time during the semester. Click on “Assessments” on the Folio page and then select “Dropbox”. Upload your files to the “Abstracts” folder.
