Manuscript Preparation

All manuscripts should be prepared in accordance with “Uniform Requirements for Manuscript Submission to Biomedical Journals” (also known as “Vancouver Style”), as agreed by the International Committee for Medical Journal Editors. The entire manuscript must be typewritten, double spaced, on white bond paper, 216 x 279 mm (8 ½ x 11 in.) or ISO A4 (212 x 297 mm), with margins of at least 25 mm (1 in.), including the abstract, footnotes, references, figure legends and tables (superscript). If a word processor is used, do not justify lines.

All manuscripts should include (1) title page, (2) short title page, (3) abstract in English (4) body of paper, (5) acknowledgements, (6) references, (7) tables, (8) figure legends, and (9) clear photocopies of figures and illustrations. Manuscripts should be consistent in style, spelling, and use of abbreviations. Slang, medical jargon, and obscure abbreviations are to be avoided. The word count should not exceed 5000 words including figures and tables.

 

Abstract and key words

Provide an abstract (250 words maximum) of the article. Original articles consist of statements of the problem (background), method of study, findings and conclusions. Observation and others (review article) consists of statement of the problem and the way of study performed. Abstract replaces the summary. Key words must be included after abstract and maximal 5 words.
