Manuscript Submissions

JOURNAL OF ALTERNATIVE & COMPLEMENTARY MEDICINE

INSTRUCTIONS FOR AUTHORS

THE JOURNAL OF ALTERNATIVE AND COMPLEMENTARY MEDICINE: Research on Paradigm, Practice, and Policy is a bimonthly peer-reviewed journal. It includes observational and analytical reports, ideas, commentary, and opinions on therapies currently thought to be outside the realm of conventional Western biomedicine that are gaining interest and warranting research to assess therapeutic value. The Journal includes current concepts in clinical care, including case reports, which will be valuable for physicians and other health care professionals who are seeking to evaluate and integrate these therapies into patient care protocols.

A primary goal of this international peer-reviewed journal is the establishment of rigorous and appropriate research methodologies; the Journal will develop and encourage publication standards to foster effective and reliable measurement, data collection, analysis, and interpretation. The Journal does not publish papers that have been submitted elsewhere.

SUBMISSION OF MANUSCRIPTS

Submit manuscripts to: Marianne Lonergan Curtis, CAMT, Managing Editor, 691 Fifth Avenue., San Francisco, CA 94118-3914. Submit the original and three copies including illustrations and tables. The author should keep an exact copy of the manuscript. Submissions should be accompanied by a covering letter that designates one author as correspondent and includes a complete address with street number and postal code, telephone, fax, and e-mail numbers. The covering letter should contain, for the Editor’s consideration, the names, addresses, and phone numbers of up to five potential reviewers familiar with the field. Anyone whom the author does not want to be considered should also be named in the covering letter. The letter should state that the material has not been published or submitted for publication elsewhere. Upon receipt of the manuscript, the Managing Editor will mail a confirmation notification to the sender indicating the title of the manuscript and the publisher’s identification number. Please refer to this number when making inquiries. All material published in the Journal will be copyrighted by Mary Ann Liebert, Inc., and may not be republished without written permission.

Authorship. All authors, including the co-authors, should be responsible for a significant part of the manuscript. All authors and co-authors should have taken part in writing the manuscript, reviewing it, and revising its intellectual and technical content. Any author whose name appears on a paper assumes responsibility and accountability for the results.

Preparation of Manuscript. Manuscripts should be submitted double-spaced on 8 ?x 11 paper. Leave ample margins on both sides, top and bottom. Submit the original and three copies, including original illustrations, figures, and tables. Electronic submission is required, and the submission must match the hard copy exactly.  Disks may be submitted in PC format, preferably in Microsoft Word.  In lieu of a disk, you may e-mail the electronic copy to jacm@acupressure.net, saved to be compatible with Microsoft Word for Windows. For controlled trials of acupuncture, use our preferred reporting criteria based on the STRICTA Guidelines, which are at: www.ftcm.org.uk/stricta.htm or in McPherson et al. Standards for reporting interventions in controlled trials of acupuncture: The STRICTA recommendations. J. Altern Complement Med 2002;8 (1) :85-89.

Guidelines on Length. Manuscript length varies according to the type of article, subject matter and authors?judgment. Original research papers would normally be less than 3,000 words; review papers may exceptionally be longer (up to 5,000 words and should have a 150-word summary); case studies would normally be less that 2,000 words; short reports should be less than 1,000 words with no more than one table or illustration and up to ten references. We are happy to entertain unsolicited editorials of up to 1,000 words, which will be externally peer reviewed. Letters to the editor should be no longer than 500 words with no more than 5 references except in exceptional circumstances when the argument for this should be laid out in an accompanying letter. One table or illustration may accompany letters. Personal view articles, drug/
therapy/intervention reports, critical review and debate and reports drawing attention to potential clinical problems will be welcomed.

Title Page. The title page should include the contributors?names with highest academic degrees, affiliations, key words, and a running head of no more than 45 characters.

Abstract. Provide a structured abstract, double spaced, of no more than 300 words with the following headings where applicable: Objectives, Design, Settings/Location, Subjects, Interventions, Outcome Measures, Results, and Conclu-sions. Reference citations are not permitted in the abstract of a paper.

Use only standard abbreviations, which can be found in the AMA’s Manual for Authors & Editors or the Council of Biology Editors Style Manual. At the first usage, spell out the term and give the abbreviation in parentheses. Thereafter, use only the abbreviation. It is not necessary to spell out standards of measure, even at first usage. For botanical names, use the Linn. classification in its first appearance in the text; thereafter, use either the common or Latin name. Use generic names for drugs if possible. If you wish to use a proprietary drug name the first time it appears, use the generic name followed by the proprietary name, manufacturer, and city in parentheses.

Acknowledgments. The author should acknowledge only those people and institutions that have made significant contributions to the study. Details of sources of funding must be given and any potential conflicts of interest declared, e.g., financial, personal, political or academic.

References. The references should be cited in the text using the name/date system. The reference list at the end of the article should be double spaced and organized alphabetically by name and date. Use journal abbreviations as provided by the Index Medicus, National Library of Medicine. List all authors. If references to personal communications or unpublished data are used, they are not to be in the list of references. They should be referred to in the text in parentheses. Include, among the references, papers accepted but not yet published; designate the journal, and “In press.?Please send a copy of related papers listed as “in press,?particularly if they include methods published elsewhere. If it is necessary to cite an abstract, this should be so designated. All authors of multi-author papers should be listed. Authors are responsible for the accuracy of the references, and are reminded that inaccurate references are highly frustrating to the reader, the cited author, and indexing services. The references should be presented in the Vancouver style. Please follow the samples below.
