Copyright: It is a condition of publication that the authors transfer the world copyright of their manuscripts to the Society. All manuscripts should therefore be accompanied by a signed Author Guarantee Form stating that the article is original, is not under consideration or has not been previously published in another journal. All material should conform to the uniform requirements for manuscripts submitted to biomedical journals. (Uniform requirements for manuscripts submitted to biomedical journals. International Committee of Medical Journal Editors. Ann Intern Med 1997;126:36-47). Authors will normally be entitled to publish any part of their paper elsewhere provided permission is requested and the usual acknowledgements are given. The assignment of the copyright will not affect subsisting patent rights or arrangements relating to them.
Illustrations, tables or quotations from other publications are already copyrighted and can be reproduced only with written permission from the copyright owner. Written permission to use these should accompany the manuscript.
Ethical review: The Editors and Publisher support the principles of the Declaration of Helsinki, and expect that the authors of papers submitted to the Journal will have obtained ethical consent and followed those legal and regulatory requirements for human experimentation with drugs, including informed consent, according to procedures which apply in their institution and country.
Authority and responsibility: The intellectual content of the paper is the responsibility of the authors. The Editors and the Publisher accept no responsibility for opinions and statements of authors. While every effort will be made by the Editors and Publisher to avoid inaccurate and misleading data, they accept no liability whatsoever for the consequences of wrong information.
The authors agree to keep the Editors and Publisher fully and effectually indemnified against any liability or claims that may arise out of the publication of inaccurate and/or misleading data.
Author Guarantee Form: All authors must complete and sign the Author Guarantee Form. This form must accompany the manuscript on submission.
Submission of manuscripts: Articles will be published in the following classifications: Original research articles, Reviews, Case reports, and Letters to the Editors. Authors should submit three copies of their manuscript and three sets of original illustrations and retain one copy for reference. One of these copies should have all identification of the authors removed, for purposes of review. The manuscript should clearly designate one author as correspondent to whom proofs will also be sent, and the full postal address, telephone number and facsimile number and e-mail address, where available, of this individual should be given. Manuscripts may be submitted on a floppy disk using any standard program, but hard copies of the manuscript are always required. Please specify which type of computer and program have been used and label the disk with the corresponding author's name, the name of the file on the disk and the Journal title. It is important that the file on disk is identical to the hard copy submitted. Articles should be written in English. Authors whose native language is not English are requested to have their manuscript checked for linguistic correctness before submission.
Presentation: Manuscripts should be typed, double-spaced on one side of A4 size paper. Papers should be structured into headed sections as follows: Title page, Abstract, Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion, Acknowledgements and References. Each section should begin on a new sheet. Other subsection headings within the main headings may be used but should be limited.
The first page should include: title, first and last name of the authors and their affiliations, short title (no more than 20 letters), key words (5-8), and the address for correspondence, including telephone, facsimile and e-mail numbers.
Abstract: The abstract should be structured (divided, for example, into objectives, methods, results and conclusions) and should not exceed 200 words.
Style: Abbreviations and symbols must be standard and Sl units used throughout. Statistical analyses must explain the methods used. The use of footnotes is not permitted. Single quotation marks should be used. References to drugs should be by their approved, not proprietary names, and the source of any new or experimental preparations should be given. The Editors reserve the right to alter the manuscripts whenever necessary to make them conform to the stylistic and bibliographic conventions of the Journal.
Literature cited: References should be numbered consecutively throughout the text and cited as superscript numerals, e.g. 'Recent work on noise induced deafness21 has been...'.. They should be listed in full at the end of the article in Vancouver style, paying particular attention to the following:
(1) Journal and book titles should be in italic.
(2) The names and initials of all authors should be given (unless there are more than six, when only the first six should be given, followed by et al.)
(3) Medical journal abbreviations follow Index Medicus usage.
(4) Unpublished work, work in preparation or personal communications should not be used as references but merely mentioned in the text.
(5) Authors must verify references against the original documents before submitting the manuscript. References should be set out in the style of the following examples:

Acknowledgements: The scientific and material contributions of others to the work should be acknowledged, with their written permission. Any grant supports should be listed and permission for reproduction of published material acknowledged.
Conflict of interest: Authors must declare whether or not they have a conflict of interest capable of influencing their judgements. Such conflicts mau take many forms but are likely to be financial, personal, political or academic. This information will be published at the end of each paper.
Source of funding: All sources of funding for research are to be explicitly stated. This will also be published at the end of each paper.
Illustrations: Glossy prints of photographs are necessary. The use of symbols in illustrations should be consistent with usage within the paper. All illustrations should be identified on the back by the name of the principal author and the figure number. If the orientation of an illustration is not obvious it should be indicated on the back. Legends for illustrations should be collected together and presented on a separate manuscript page. Reference should be made specifically in the text to all figures. They should be numbered Figure 1, Figure 2, etc.
All photographs should be of highest quality possible as reproduction reduces the quality; they should be not larger the 30x21 cm (A4) and should be trimmed to remove all the redundant areas. When photomicrographs are submitted, staining techniques should be stated and an internal scale marker included. If any of the illustrations submitted have been published elsewhere, written consent should be obtained from the copyright holder (usually the publisher) and the authors.
Tables: Each table should be on a separate page with its caption. The following symbols should be used for foot notes:  . References should be made specifically in the text to all tables. They should be numbered Table 1, Table 2, etc. Tables should be simple and should not duplicate information in the text of the paper. If any of the tables submitted have been published elsewhere, written consent should be obtained from the copyright holder (usually the publisher) and the authors.
Proofs: The designated author will receive a copy of the proofs, which should be read carefully for errors. The corrected proof must be returned promptly to Parthenon Publishing. Authors will be asked to defray the expense of any major alterations to the proofs which are departures from the original manuscript.
Offprints: Twenty-five offprints of each article will be provided free of charge.
