Instruction to Authors


Language
All papers should be written in English. It is essential that the language is irreproachable. If the Editorial Board should consider it necessary, manuscripts will be subjected to language examination at the author's risk and expense. Authors whose first language is not English are recommended to have their manuscripts checked carefully before submission.

Duplicate publication
It is not acceptable to submit papers already published elsewhere or simultaneously submit a paper to another journal. The paper must not be under review in another journal. Accompanying the manuscript should be a copy of all references mentioned in the particular paper still not published and articles by the same authors on the same subject submitted elsewhere.

Conflict of interest/competing interest
All authors must disclose any and all conflict of interest they may have with publication of the manuscript or an institution or a product that is mentioned in the manuscript and/or is important to the outcome of the study presented. Authors should also disclose conflict of interest with products that compete with those mentioned in the manuscript.

Preparation of manuscripts
The manuscript must be submitted in precise, concise and easy to read English. The type of article must be specified like review article, research article, case report, short communication, commentary, letters to the editor. Each manuscript component should be given on a new page. The sequence of the manuscript should be title page, abstract, text (excluding tables and figures) and references. Tables and figures properly labelled and numbered should be added in the end of the text as separate pages for each table and figure. Review articles are usually invited on specific topics, but submitted reviews without previous invitation are also welcome. Letters to the Editor commenting on a published article or covering other matters of general interest are welcome. They should, however, be kept short, and have only a few references. The Editor reserves the right to determine which Letters should be published.

1. Title Page: The title should consist of capsule of one or two sentences giving the essence of the study. The page should list full names, degrees, academic affiliation and location of each author. Title should include the name and address of the corresponding author along with his/her e-mail id.

2. Abstract: A structured abstract should be limited to 150 – 250 words and containing the following major headings – Objectives, Methods, Results and Conclusions for research articles. Other articles need not have specified the headings as such, but should be structured in the same manner as much as possible.

3. Keywords: It should not repeat the title of the manuscript. MeSH catalogue should be used for keywords.

4. Text: The main text of the research article should be divided into Introduction, Material and Methods, Results and Observations, Discussion, Conclusions, References
. Introduction should state the purpose of the article and justify the need for the study. Summarize the rationale for the study. Give only pertinent references; do not review the subject extensively.
Method should describe the selection of the subjects. Give details about randomisation. Describe methods for any blinding done for the observations. Identify methods, equipment/materials, and procedures in sufficient details, including pertinent references, to allow others to reproduce the study.
Result should present in logical sequence in the text, tables, and figures. Avoid repeating information in text, tables and figures. Restrict tables and figures to those needed to explain arguments and to assess their support. Use figures as an alternative to tables with many entries. Do not write in the text what variable are seen in a table but which are the main findings. Thus write "In table xx is seen" or give the reference to the specific table in parenthesis after the main information seen in the table is presented.
Discussion should start with one paragraph summary of the main findings. Then place your study in context, referring to other relevant work. Do not repeat in detail data or other information presented in the Introduction or Result section. Discuss the limitation of the methods and the results presenting the clinical relevance of your study and the implications for future studies. Address the issue of effect magnitude, in terms of both the statistics reported and the implications of the results.
References must be numbered consecutively in the sequential order in which they are mentioned in the text, table and figures. Reference list must be set out in format used by the NLM (Vancouver style). Journal title abbreviations should be as in Medline Standard. Citation in the text should be marked by Arab numbers in brackets. The authors are solely responsible for the accuracy of references.
