Editable files (e.g., Word, Hangul files, pptx, excel) are required to typeset your article for final publication. All correspondence, including notification of the Editor's decision and requests for revision, is sent by e-mail.

 

6. Manuscript preparation

Manuscript should be prepared in the following order.

Title page

Provide the following data on the title page (in the order given).

- Title. Concise and informative. Titles are often used in information-retrieval systems. Avoid abbreviations, formulae, and new trademarked product names where possible.

- Author names and affiliations. Where the family name may be ambiguous (e.g., a double name), please indicate this clearly. Present the authors' affiliation addresses (where the actual work was done) below the names. Indicate all affiliations with a lower-case superscript letter immediately after the author's name and in front of the appropriate address. Provide the full postal address of each affiliation, including the country name, and, if available, the e-mail address of each author.

- Corresponding author. Clearly indicate who will handle correspondence at all stages of refereeing and publication, also post-publication. Ensure that telephone and fax numbers (with country and area code) are provided in addition to the e-mail address and the complete postal address.

- Present/permanent address. If an author has moved since the work described in the article was done, or was visiting at the time, a “Present address”(or “Permanent address”) may be indicated as a footnote to that author's name. The address at which the author actually did the work must be retained as the main, affiliation address. Superscript Arabic numerals are used for such footnotes.

 

Abstract (not more than 250 words in English) and 3-5 keywords

An abstract is required for all papers. The abstract should indicate the content of the paper, and should describe the main conclusions. An effective abstract is brief and normally less than 200 words. Abstracts must not exceed 250 words. References should be avoided, but if essential, they must be cited in full, without reference to the reference list. Immediately after the abstract, authors should list three to five keywords that appropriately represent the contents of their manuscripts for indexing purpose.

 

Introduction

State the objectives of the work and provide an adequate background, avoiding a detailed literature survey or a summary of the results.

 

Materials and Methods

Provide sufficient detail to allow the work to be reproduced. Describe the procedures and analytical techniques. Methods already published should be indicated by a reference: only relevant modifications should be described. Include at least general composition details and batch numbers for all materials, and identify names and sources of all commercial products.

Studies Involving Animals or Humans. When data from animal subjects are reported, institutional approval of the protocol is required and a statement should be included in the “Methods” section of the text that indicates compliance with the NIH Guide for Care and Use of Laboratory Animals or other appropriate guidelines. For human subject data, a statement must be added to the “Methods” section indicating that an institutional review committee approved the study (with the date of approval) and that the subjects provided informed consent.

Ensure correct use of the terms sex (when reporting biological factors) and gender (identity, psychosocial or cultural factors), and, unless inappropriate, report the sex and/or gender of study participants, the sex of animals or cells, and describe the methods used to determine sex and gender. If the study was done involving an exclusive population, for example in only one sex, authors should justify why, except in obvious cases (e.g., prostate cancer). Authors should define how they determined race or ethnicity and justify their relevance.Statistical methods are written in this part. Careful statistical analysis must be performed and reported to support any statements regarding the existence of differences in study groups. Statistical support should underlie hypothesis testing. Error bars are required on all experimental and calculated data points. Please include a separate Statistical Methods section in the text that includes an explanation regarding how the errors, differences, and confidence levels were determined.

 

Results

Results should be clear and concise, and refer to appropriate tables and figures. Refrain from subjective comments.

 

Discussion

This should explain and interpret data, and state implications of the results of the work, not repeat them. Discussion should be reported independently from Results. Avoid extensive citations and discussion of published literature. Sometimes Results and Discussion will be combined.

 

Conclusions

The main conclusions of the study may be presented in a short Conclusions section, which may stand alone or form a subsection at the end of the Discussion section. Conclusions must concisely state inference, significance, or consequences.

 

Acknowledgements

Collate acknowledgements in a separate section at the end of the article before the references and do not, therefore, include them on the title page, as a footnote to the title or otherwise. List here those individuals who provided help during the research (e.g., providing language help, writing assistance or proof reading the article, etc.).

 

References

Ensure that every reference cited in the text is also present in the reference list (and vice versa). All references should be brought together in your ‘References’ section starting as a new page. Journal names are abbreviated according to ‘Journal Title Abbreviation’ in Web of Science.

Please ensure that every source of references, if available, (e.g. name of journal, full title of paper, author(s), etc.) is must be in English.

For the citation within the main text, indicate references by Arabic numbers in parentheses (in round brackets) in line with the sentence according to the ‘Vancouver Reference Style’.

 

Example of citation in text:

Blood loss and the number of patients requiring post-operative blood transfusions were significantly greater (1), but operation and fluoroscopy times were significantly shorter, for the DHS versus the PFNA group (2-4).
