About the journal
Aims and Scope
The aim of Acta Neurologica Scandinavica is to publish manuscripts of a high scientific quality representing original clinical, diagnostic or experimental work in neuroscience. The scope is to act as an international forum for the dissemination of information advancing the science or practice of this subject area. Papers in English will be welcomed, especially those which bring new knowledge and observations from the application of therapies or techniques in the combating of a broad spectrum of neurological disease and neurodegenerative disorders. Relevant articles on the basic neurosciences will be published where they extend present understanding of such disorders. Priority will be given to review of topical subjects. Papers requiring rapid publication because of their significance and timeliness will be included as 'Clinical commentaries' not exceeding two printed pages, as will 'Clinical commentaries' of sufficient general interest. Debate within the speciality is encouraged in the form of 'Letters to the editor'. All submitted manuscripts falling within the overall scope of the journal will be assessed by suitably qualified referees.

Instructions to Authors
Before a paper is submitted, authors should consult a current issue of Acta Neurologica Scandinavica for style and format.
Authors submitting a paper do so on the understanding that the work has not been published before, is not being considered for publication elsewhere, and has been read and approved by all authors. The submission of the manuscript by the authors means that they automatically agree to grant Blackwell Munksgaard the exclusive licence to publish it if and when the manuscript is accepted for publication. Granting this exclusive licence is a condition of publication and papers will not be passed to the publisher for production unless the licence has been granted. On acceptance, the corresponding author will receive an Copyright Transfer Agreement, which is to be signed on behalf of all co-authors and returned.
The work shall not be published elsewhere in any language without the written consent of the publisher. The articles published in this journal are protected by copyright, which covers translation rights and the exclusive right to reproduce and distribute all of the articles printed in the journal. No material published in the journal may be stored on microfilm or videocassettes or in electronic databases or retrieval systems without the written permission of the publisher.
All clinical trials must be approved by the local ethics committee. This should be stated in the article in the methods section. For randomized clinical trials please follow the requirements set down by the consort statement to be found at: http://www.consort-statement.org/statement/revisedstatement.htm
Please note that Blackwell Publishing will dispose of all material submitted two months after publication. If you require the return of any material submitted, please inform the editorial office.
Articles must be written in correct scientific English suitable for publication. Although articles are subject to review and editing, the journal does not hold itself responsible for all statements made by contributors.
Peer review. All submitted material will be subject to peer review, but manuscripts can be rejected based on in-house assessment alone. That decision will be communicated rapidly. Currently around 30% of submitted manuscripts are accepted for publication, usually after modification suggested by the reviewers.
Manuscripts. The first 10 printed pages in the original articles are free of charge. For excess pages, the charge is GBP 60 per printed page.
Please submit your manuscript online: http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/ane. Please make sure to upload your complete manuscript file, including the author page and the abstract, even though it is also required to fill in these details on ScholarOne Manuscripts.
The first page should contain only the title of the article, the authors' names and institutions, and the full postal address of the author to whom communications and proofs are to be sent, and from whom offprints are to be requested. A second page with a brief running title which must not contain authors' names as all papers are sent anonymously to our referees.
Acknowledgements should be given on a separate page and any major sponsorship should be mentioned. Only persons who have made substantial contributions to the study should be acknowledged. Authors are responsible for obtaining written permission from anyone acknowledged by name.

The style of citations and references must conform to that of the 'Uniform requirements for manuscripts submitted to biomedical journals' as stated by the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (BMJ 1991;302:338-341). These should be kept to the pertinent minimum and numbered consecutively in the order in which they appear in the text, in accordance with the Vancouver system. Identify references in text, tables, and legends by arabic numerals (in parentheses). References cited only in tables or figure legends should be numbered in accordance with a sequence established by the first identification of that figure or table in the text. Use the style of the examples following, which are based on Index Medicus. Try to avoid using abstracts as references. Include manuscripts accepted, but not published; designate the abbreviated title of the journal followed by (in press). Information from manuscripts not yet accepted should be cited in the text as personal communication. The references must be verified by the author(s) against the original documents.

Use no roman numerals; in decimals use the decimal point, not the comma.
Supporting Information. The Acta Neurologica Scandinavica Online gives authors the opportunity to include data that would be inappropriate or impractical to include in the printed version. These data may substantially enhance the importance of the research and may also be of benefit to readers. Authors are encouraged to include data such as videos, 3-D structures/images and any other supporting data too large for print publication. All supporting information must be submitted with the original manuscript via ScholarOne Manuscripts.
Supporting information guidelines including acceptable file formats and sizes are available at: http://authorservices.wiley.com/bauthor/suppmat.asp
Proofs. The corresponding author will receive an email alert containing a link to a web site. A working e-mail address must therefore be provided for the corresponding author. The proof can be downloaded as a PDF (portable document format) file from this site. Acrobat Reader will be required in order to read this file. This software can be downloaded (free of charge) from the following web site:
http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html.
This will enable the file to be opened, read on screen and printed out in order for any corrections to be added. Further instructions will be sent with the proof. Hard copy proofs will be posted if no e-mail address is available. Excessive changes made by the author in the proofs, excluding typesetting errors, will be charged separately.
Early View. Acta Neurologica Scandinavica is covered by Blackwell Publishing's Early View service. Early View articles are complete full-text articles published online in advance of their publication in a printed issue. They have been fully reviewed, revised and edited for publication, and the authors' final corrections incorporated. Authors cannot make changes to their articles after online publication. Early View articles are given a Digital Object Identifier (DOI), which allows each article to be cited and tracked before it is allocated to an issue. After print publication, the DOI remains valid and can continue to be used to cite and access the articles.
Offprints. Offprints without covers can be ordered on the form accompanying the proofs.
Author Services. Author Services enables authors to track their article - once it has been accepted - through the production process to publication online and in print. Authors can check the status of their articles online and choose to receive automated e-mails at key stages of production. The author will receive an e-mail with a unique link that enables them to register and have their article automatically added to the system. Please ensure that a complete e-mail address is provided when submitting the manuscript. Visit http://authorservices.wiley.com/bauthor/ for more details on online production tracking and for a wealth of resources including FAQs and tips on article preparation, submission and more.
Supplements. Papers to be published as supplements should be submitted to the Editor. Authors should follow the instructions given above. The quality of language must meet the standards of the journal. All costs for translation or linguistic revision, as well as all printing costs, must be paid by the author. Information about distribution, text on cover and title page, printing costs, etc., can be obtained from the Journals Department, Blackwell Munksgaard: 1 Rosenørns Alle, 1970 Frederiksberg C, Denmark.
