About the journal
Seminars in Nephrology is a timely source for the publication of new concepts and research findings relevant to clinical practice. Each issue is an organized compendium of practical information that serves as a lasting reference for nephrologists, internists and physicians in training.
Instructions to Authors
Elsevier works with a global community of editors and editorial boards to ensure the highest level of expertise for our publications. Our primary research journals are peer reviewed and independently edited by acknowledged experts in their fields.
The following Guide has been designed to help you get published as quickly and easily as possible in an Elsevier Publication.
For detailed instructions for an individual journal please go to the journal page and click on the link to Guide for Authors.
All submissions must be accompanied by a covering letter detailing what you are submitting.
Please indicate the author to whom we should address our correspondence (in the case of multiple authors) and include a contact address, telephone/fax numbers and e-mail address (Elsevier is gradually introducing a service for authors to receive PDF proofs by e-mail).
Please include details of any previous or concurrent submission. It is also useful to provide the Editor-in-Chief with any information that will support your submission (e.g. original or confirmatory data, relevance, topicality).
Note When your manuscript is received at Elsevier it is considered to be in its final form. Therefore you need to check your manuscript carefully before you submit it to the editor.
We can accept most word-processing formats (ideally Microsoft Word or WordPerfect). Please see the relevant Guide for Authors to check the style of the individual journal to which the manuscript is to be submitted, particularly the reference style. This means that fewer changes have to be made, which reduces the possibility of errors being introduced.
Most formatting codes are removed or replaced when we process your article so there is no need for you to use excessive layout styling.
Please do not use options such as automatic word breaking, justified layout, double columns or automatic paragraph numbering (especially for numbered references).
Do use bold face, italic, subscripts, superscripts, etc., as appropriate.
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 instead of spaces.
When you create your manuscript, please make sure it is in the following order:
Title
Authors
Affiliation
Abstract
Keywords
Main Text
Acknowledgement
Appendix
References
Vitae
Figure Legends
Tables
Note Do not import the Figures into the text file.
If you use LaTeX to write your articles, we have separate LaTeX instructions
Preparing typeset articles with LaTeX
For those authors who use LaTeX to write their articles, we have developed the Elsevier LaTeX package. You need LaTeX 2e, or LaTeX version 2.09 of 14 January 1992, if you want to use it.
Users of LaTeX 2e need only one file: the class file elsart.cls
Users of LaTeX 2.09 need two files: the main document style elsart.sty and the file with the point-size related definitions elsart12.sty.
How to use the document class elsart
The following files may help you in writing articles with the elsart document class. The guidelines explain features which are specific for the elsart style. The template files may serve as a starting point for your article.
Articles with Harvard style (author-year) references: guidelines (pdf format) and template file.
Articles with numbered references: guidelines (pdf format) and template file.
Note that the template file does not run without TeX error messages until you have supplied title and author information.
BibTeX style files
Use:
BibTeX style file elsart-harv.bst for articles with Harvard style (author-year) references. When you use this style file, you should also use the natbib package.
BibTeX style file elsart-num.bst for articles with numbered references.
Other documentation for authors
Our instruction booklet Preparing articles with LaTeX is available in DVI format (you need AMSFonts v2.1 to be able to print the documentation in DVI format), in PostScript format or in PDF format.
Preparing IFAC papers with LaTeX
The package for IFAC papers consists of the following files:
The class file ifacmtg.cls
The BibTeX style file ifac.bst
The sample file ifacsam.tex.
The sample file on letter paper format ifacsam-letter.tex
The BibTeX database for the sample file ifacsam.bib
How to use the document class ifacmtg
Other than the sample file, there is no specific instruction on how to use the ifacmtg.cls document class. Since it is similar to elsart.cls, the guidelines and other documentation for authors, mentioned above, may be helpful.
Preparing Proceedings articles with LaTeX
For authors preparing an article for a Conference Proceedings, we have developed a number of class files which print the article in the layout of the journal in which the Proceedings is to be published.
Elsevier's journals use one of a set of standard layouts numbered 1¨C6. For each layout we may provide a separate class file, called elsartN.cls, where N is the number of the layout. Please, ask
the editorial office of the Conference Proceedings or of the journal which layout is suitable for your particular Conference.
At the moment the following class file is provided:
elsart3.cls
Because these class files are based upon elsart.cls, you also need the document class elsart.cls. The guidelines and the template files are the same as for elsart.cls, see above
Preparing CRC articles with LaTeX
For authors of Camera-Ready Copy (CRC) we have developed the Elsevier CRC package. You need LaTeX 2e if you want to use it. It comes in two versions:
One-column articles.
To write a one-column article, you need the package espcrc1. Download the package
with files for Unix (tar.gz format),
or with files for Windows (zip ¨C Winzip, pkzip ¨C format),
or with files for Macintosh (zip format).
Two-column articles.
To write a two-column article, you need the package espcrc2. Download the package
with files for Unix (tar.gz format),
or with files for Windows (zip ¨C Winzip, pkzip ¨C format),
or with files for Macintosh (zip format).
The packages contain the files:
espcrc1.sty or espcrc2.sty, the document style.
espcrc1.tex or espcrc2.tex, the author guide.
Readme1 or Readme2, the readme fil.
The author guide is also available in Postscript or PDF format: espcrc1.ps, espcrc1.pdf, espcrc2.ps, espcrc2.pdf.
Useful LaTeX packages
The guidelines suggest several useful LaTeX packages. If you do not already have them on your TeX system, you may get them from the Comprehensive TeX Archive Network (CTAN).
CTAN is an archive with up-to-date copies of all the public-domain versions of TeX, LaTeX, Metafont and ancillary programs, which is made available via a mirrored network of FTP servers.
You can enter the CTAN archive via a web interface in the UK, in the USA, or in Germany (page in German). You can search for a package on CTAN via this interface.
You can also enter the archive via FTP at ftp.tex.ac.uk, at ftp.dante.de, at ctan.tug.org, or at one of the many mirror servers; see this list or this list of CTAN mirror sites.
When a CTAN server does not respond, please try another one.
Note that CTAN is not related to Elsevier, and that Elsevier's author support cannot accept complaints or answer questions about the availability of any CTAN server.
These packages are recommended for usage with our document styles:
The natbib package.
The various graphics packages.
The various amsfonts packages, including the amssymb package.
For initial submission of your paper for review most journals will still accept a printed copy. Please see the individual Guide for Authors for further information.
Disk Submission
Elsevier now publishes all manuscripts using electronic production methods and therefore needs to receive the electronic files of your article along with the hardcopy of the accepted version. To ensure fast and easy processing of your submission, please adhere to the following guidelines:
Save text and graphics on separate disks
Label all disks with your name, a short version of the article title, the journal to be published in, and the filenames. Please also include details of the software platform (PC, Mac, Unix, etc) used to create your files
Ensure that the files on the disk match the hardcopy exactly. In cases of a discrepancy, the hardcopy version will be used as the definitive version by the production team
Online Submission
To speed up the submission process Elsevier is introducing online submission for its journals. To see if the journals you are interested in have this new feature please go to the journal home page.
Each journal has its own editors and editorial boards for submission of papers. To find the editorial address for the publication you are interested in, go to that journal's homepage and check the journal's Guide for Authors.
Before sending your paper to the Editor, please make sure that you have included all necessary details.
For all submissions (either online or on disk), please make sure you have provided the following
Name of the author designated as the corresponding author, along with their:
E-mail address
Full postal address
Telephone and fax numbers
Keywords
Further considerations
References are in the correct format for the journal? See the journal's Guide for Authors for details.
All references mentioned in the Reference list are quoted in the text, and vice versa?
