Article Body
Any manuscript must consider all article writing standards based on the AMA manual of Style for writing articles.
Any lack of "English" academic writing may lead to "fast rejection" of manuscripts. Therefore, the journal strongly recommend authors to consult their manuscripts with a native English speaker and edit them.
To avoid the English editing surcharge, we recommend that non-native English speaking authors send their manuscripts to a professional English editing service prior to the submission of their manuscript to journals.
[Especially required for Research Articles]
The rest of the article differs according to the article type, but generally it includes the following headings:
Background & Objectives
Materials/Patients and Methods
Results
Discussion and Conclusion
References
Drug Names
Generic drug names must be used in the title and throughout the whole manuscript, as well. The proprietary name should be included in parentheses, along with the name of manufacturer, and city, upon the first mention in the text.
Formula
All authors can either put the formula in full manuscript without title page file ( *.docx format) and if there is a problem in the auto-generated pdf files, authors can upload formula as a Formula file type (or as Another file type if you do not find Formula file type in *.doc format). If you encounter any problems in this regard, you can contact us via our support portal.
Fonts
To distinguish different parts of the article, it is recommended to use the Times New Roman font (size 12) for the body, size 12 bold for subheadings, size 14 for headings and size 14 bold for the title.
Units, symbols, and abbreviations
Internationally accepted units (International System of Units), symbols, and abbreviations must be used. Abbreviations should be used sparingly and must be introduced in parentheses upon first mention. Abbreviations that have meaning only within the context of the specific manuscript should be avoided.
Background & Objectives
Background should summarize the purpose and the rationale for the study. It should neither review the subject extensively nor contains data or conclusions of the study.
Objectives: Author(s) should declare objectives/aims of the study in the submitted manuscript.
Methods
This should include exact method or observation or experiment. If an apparatus is used, its manufacturer's name and address should be given in parenthesis.
For established methods reference is needed but for the new methods enough information is required,therefore, it can be used afterwards.
Generic name, dose and administration type are required for the used medications.
Statistical methods and general computer programs (software) must be mentioned.
The used Info system should be clearly noted.
Results
It must be presented in the form of text, tables, and illustrations.
The contents of the tables should not be repeated in the text. Instead, a reference to the table number may be given.
Long articles may need sub-headings within some sections (especially the Results and Discussion parts) to clarify their contents.
Discussion and Conclusion
Discussion should emphasize on the present findings and the variations or similarities with other related studies.
The detailed data should not be repeated in the discussion again.
It concentrates the new and important aspects of the study and the achieved conclusions.
It must be mentioned that the initially considered hypothesis is true or false or no conclusions can be derived.
Presenting the last word on the issues and summarizing thoughts and conveying the larger implications of the study, demonstrating the importance of ideas and introducing possible new or expanded ways of thinking about the research problem. One well-developed paragraph is sufficient for a conclusion, although in some cases, a two-or-three paragraph conclusion may be required.
