INSTRUCTIONS TO AUTHORS
1. General
Cover letter: A letter accompanying the manuscript should include a statement of any financial or other relationships that might lead to a conflict of interest, the recommended Field Editor to which the manuscript should be assigned, and the names of four potential reviewers with complete contact details.
Submission of a paper to PAIN is understood to imply that it has not previously been published (except in abstract form) and that it is not being considered for publication elsewhere.
Manuscripts submitted under multiple authorship are reviewed on the assumption that (1) all authors listed concur with the submitted version of the manuscript and with the listing of the authors; (2) authorship credit is based on important contributions in one or more of the following areas: conception and design, analysis and interpretation of data, drafting of the manuscript or making intellectual contributions to its content; (3) the final manuscript has been tacitly or explicitly approved by the responsible authorities in the laboratory or institution where the work was carried out.
If illustrations or other small parts of articles or books already published elsewhere are used in papers submitted to PAIN the written permission of author and publisher concerned must be included with the manuscript. The original source(s) must be indicated in the legend of the illustration in these cases, or as appropriate as a footnote to the text.
The Publisher and Editor-in-Chief regret that they are unable to return copies of submitted manuscripts.
Articles should be written in English and should be complete in all respects. The layout, style and length of article should adhere strictly to the instructions given under "Organization of the Article" and, in particular, to the reference style of PAIN
The Editors of PAIN endorse and strongly encourage authors of reports of clinical trials to use the CONSORT guidelines found at http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2288/1/2 as well as the QUORUM statement used for systematic reviews found at: http://www.thelancet.com under Vol. 354, November 1999, D. Moher et al., "Improving the quality of reports of meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials: the QUORUM statement" (both used with permission).
No revisions or updates will be incorporated after the article has been accepted and sent to the Publisher (unless approved by the Editors).
For all types of papers the preferred method of submission is electronic, via the WWW using the SMARTWorks website: http://www.smartworks2000.com/smart2000/start/start.asp
For assistance with on-line submission, please contact PAIN?at: tinay@iasp-pain.org
2. Preparing electronic manuscripts
Keep text and graphics (and any other items) as separate files - do not import the figures into the text file. Name your files using the correct extension, e.g. text.doc, fig1a.eps, fig1.tif, Fig1.cdr, tbl1-6.xls, etc. Please do not submit any material as .pdf files.
Text files should be supplied in one of the following formats: Microsoft Word or WordPerfect, Windows or Macintosh formatted. The native format is preferred over ASCII text or Rich Text Format (RTF).
Ensure that the letter "l" and the digit "1" (also letter "O" and digit "0") are used properly, and format your article (tabs, indents, etc.) consistently. Characters not available on your word processor (Greek letters, mathematical symbols, etc.) should not be left open, but indicated by a unique code (e.g. gralpha, @, #, etc. for the Greek letter alpha). Such codes should be used consistently throughout the entire text. Please make a list of such codes and provide a key.
As most formatting codes will be removed or replaced during the publication process, do not use excessive layout styling. Also, do not use automatic word breaking, justified layout, double columns or automatic paragraph numbering (especially for numbered references). However, do use bold face, italics, subscripts, superscripts etc. for scientific nomenclature.
When preparing tables, if you are using a table grid, please use only one grid for each separate table and not a grid for each row. If no grid is being used, use tabs to align columns, not spaces.
Graphic files: See Elsevier Science's website for guidelines for preparing electronic artwork: http://www.authors.elsevier.com/artwork
The following are preferred formats: native formats of Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator. If this is not possible, the graphic files may also be supplied in either TIFF, JPEG or GIF format (with SMARTWorks submissions). We cannot accept .pdf formats. All type fonts used in studio-created artwork must be either "embedded" in the file or supplied separately.
All graphic files supplied as bitmap format (not vector format) in native Adobe?Photoshop, TIFF, JPEG or GIF must be submitted in sufficiently high resolution (240-300 dpi for gray-scale or color images and 600-1000 dpi for line art) to allow for printing.
3. Submission of manuscripts
Full instructions for uploading data and files etc. are given on the SMARTWorks website: http://www.smartworks2000.com/smart2000/start/start.asp Do not type directly into Smartworks; cut and paste previously typed material.
Please be sure to include the version and computer platform (e.g. WORD 98) when uploading files. Electronic submission via SMARTWorks requires at least one original word processing file; if there are any associated data files (figures, etc.), these should be included separately. It is the responsibility of the authors to create the proper files. The editorial office cannot make conversions beyond the supported file types. Do not send hardcopy manuscripts or illustrations to the Editors unless specifically requested.
Only after "notification of acceptance" or "acceptance with minor revision" will authors be requested to send two sets of hardcopy illustrations to the Elsevier Editorial Office, for the purpose of checking the quality of the processed electronic files.
4. Organization of manuscripts
SMARTWorks will guide authors through the submission steps, including: Abstract, up to 6 Keywords, and the Manuscript. The manuscript must contain an Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion, Acknowledgements and Reference List.
Length of manuscript: Abstract: 250 words; Introduction: 500 words, Discussion: 1500; Methods and Results: no limit. If the manuscript exceeds this word count, authors will be required to revise the paper. Permission to exceed these guidelines must be obtained from the Editor-in-Chief.
Title page. The title page should include the following: (i) complete title (preferably no chemical formulas or arbitrary abbreviations); (ii) full names of all authors; (iii) complete affiliations of all authors; (iv) the number of text pages of the entire manuscript (including figures and tables) and the number of figures and tables; (v) the author to whom correspondence should be sent and this author's complete address, telephone number, facsimile number and E-mail address, and if available URL address.
Reference list: Citation of literature references in the text should be included in parentheses and should be by author(s) and year in chronological, not alphabetical order. When papers written by more than two authors are cited in the text, the abbreviation "et al.' should be used in the text following the name of the leading author, even if the subsequent authors are not the same in all references.
All references cited in the text must be listed at the end of the paper, should be typed double-spaced, and arranged alphabetically by author. References must be complete, including initial(s) of author(s) cited, title of paper, journal, year of publication, volume and page numbers. If more than two references with the same year and author(s) are cited, use lowercase letters after the year (Cousins 1982a,b; Melzack et al. 1984a,b). Journal titles should be abbreviated according to Index Medicus, List of Journals Indexed, latest edition.
For citations of books, the following uniform sequence should be maintained: author(s), title of article, editor(s), complete title of book, place of publication, publisher, year and page numbers. Manuscripts in preparation and submitted but not accepted, as well as 'personal communications' should not appear in the reference list but should be cited at the appropriate place in the text.

Goldenberg DL. Psychiatric and psychological aspects of fibromyalgia syndrome. Rheum Dis Clin N Am 1989a;15:105-115.
Goldenberg DL. Fibromyalgia and its relation to chronic fatigue syndrome, viral illness and immune abnormalities. J Rheumatol 1989b;16:91-93.
Turner JA. Coping and chronic pain. In: Bond MR, Charlton JE, Woolf CJ, editors. Pain research and clinical management. Proc. VIth World Congress on Pain, Vol. 4. Amsterdam: Elsevier, 1991. pp. 219-227.
URLs should be included for all references that are publicly accessible via the Internet.
Illustrations: Authors should consult Elsevier's website for guidelines for preparing (electronic) artwork:
http://www.authors.elsevier.com/artwork
Journal illustrations will appear either across a single column (=8.4 cm) or a whole page (=17.6 cm). The illustrations should be numbered in Arabic numerals according to the sequence of appearance in the text, where they are referred to as Fig. 1, Fig. 2, etc. Please do not submit illustrations as .pdf files
After acceptance of an article the publisher may request that electronic files of the illustrations be accompanied by a hardcopy set of the final illustrations. Any hardcopy illustrations should bear the author's name, the orientation (top, bottom, etc.) and be numbered. Hardcopy color figures should be submitted as separate prints and not be mounted on cardboard. Slides taken from labeled prints are also acceptable.
Color reproduction. Authors will be required to pay a fee towards the extra costs incurred in color reproduction. The charges are EURO 300.00 for the first page involving color, and EURO 200.00 per page for all subsequent pages involving color in a given article (all prices include sales tax).
Figure legends. Provide each illustration with a title and an explanatory legend. The title should be part of the legend and not be reproduced on the figure itself. Legends should be numbered consecutively in Arabic numerals and should be placed on a separate page at the end of the manuscript and begin with the number of the illustration to which they refer. All symbols and abbreviations used in the figure must be explained.
Tables. Tables, with their captions and legends, should be intelligible with minimal reference to the text. Tables of numerical data should each be typed (with double-spacing) on a separate page, numbered in sequence in Arabic numerals (Table 1, 2, etc.), provided with a heading, and referred to in the text as Table 1, Table 2, etc. A detailed description of its contents and footnotes should be given below the body of the table.
Acknowledgments. Acknowledgments should be placed at the end of the text before the Reference List and should specify: (1) contributions that need acknowledging but do not justify authorship; (2) acknowledgments of technical help; (3) acknowledgments of financial and material support, specifying the nature of the support; (4) financial arrangements that may represent a possible conflict of interest.
Ethics of Animal Experiments. Authors must acknowledge that their experiments adhered to the guidelines of the Committee for Research and Ethical Issues of IASP published in PAIN 16 (1983) 109-110. Authors should indicate if the experimental work was reviewed by an institutional animal care and use committee or its equivalent.
Ethics of Human Experiments. Authors reporting on experimental work on humans should, where relevant, submit evidence that the work has been approved by an institutional clinical research panel or its equivalent.
Proofs. Authors should keep a copy of their manuscripts, as page proofs will be sent by e-mail (.pdf) without the manuscript. To avoid a delay in publication, authors are asked to return proofs within 48 hours by fax or express mail.
Page Charges. There will be no page charges for PAIN
Reprints. A total of 50 reprints of each paper will be provided free of charge to the corresponding author. Additional copies can be ordered at prices shown on the offprint order form, which will be sent to the author upon receipt of the accepted article at the Publisher.
