About the journal
Die Wiener klinische Wochenschrift The Middle European Journal of Medicine ist eine internationale, zweisprachige (deutsch englisch), medizinisch-wissenschaftliche Zeitschrift, die das gesamte Spektrum der klinischen Medizin und medizinisch-gesellschaftliche Randbereiche, wie Ethik in der Medizin, Sozialmedizin, Geschichte der Medizin abdeckt. Alle Arbeiten durchlaufen ein Begutachtungsverfahren. Neben Originalarbeiten (die vorwiegend in englischer Sprache erscheinen) werden Editorials und Leitartikel zu aktuellen Themen, Übersichten, Fallberichte und ein breites Spektrum von Sonderthemen publiziert. Experimentelle Arbeiten werden nur dann veröffentlicht, wenn sie einen direkten klinischen Bezug aufweisen. Die Autorenschaft ist zunehmend international mit Schwerpunkt im mitteleuropäischen Raum, der Anteil englischsprachiger Publikationen ist kontinuierlich im Steigen begriffen. Die internationale Anerkennung der Zeitschrift (gemessen am Impact Factor) hat in den letzten Jahren stark zugenommen.
Die Wiener klinische Wochenschrift The Middle European Journal of Medicine, gegr¨¹ndet 1888, ist eine der traditionsreichsten medizinischen Zeitschriften der Welt, in der unzählige Meilensteine der Medizin erstveröffentlicht wurden.
The Wiener klinische Wochenschrift The Middle European Journal of Medicine - is an international peer-reviewed bilingual (German, English) scientific medical journal covering the entire spectrum of clinical medicine and related areas such as ethics in medicine, public health and the history of medicine. In addition to original articles (which are published predominantly in the English language), the Journal contains editorials and leading articles on recent topics, review articles, case reports and a wide spectrum of special articles. Experimental material is considered for publication only if it is directly relevant to clinical medicine. International contributors predominantly from Central Europe as well as the proportion of English language articles have been steadily increasing. Consequently, the international reputation of the journal (as assessed by the impact factor) has risen significantly during the recent years.
The Wiener klinische Wochenschrift The Middle European Journal of Medicine, founded in 1888, it is certainly one of the most prestigious medical journals in the world and takes pride in having been the first publisher of innumerable landmarks in medicine.
Instructions to Authors
The Wiener klinische Wochenschrift ¨C The Middle European Journal of Medicine - publishes original papers, reviews, case reports in all fields of clinical research, and editorials on selected original articles and important current scientific developments. Experimental investigations can be considered only if directly relevant to clinical medicine.
Manuscripts containing original material are accepted for consideration on the understanding that the material has neither been published previously (except in form of an abstract), nor is under consideration for publication elsewhere and that its publication is approved by all coauthors. The editors expect all authors to disclose any commercial associations they have that might give rise to a conflict of interest. When the manuscript is accepted for publication, the authors agree to automatic transfer of the copyright to the publisher.
Manuscripts can be submitted either in English or in German, original papers preferably in English (the manuscript will, if necessary, be corrected for English style and language). All scientific material is subject to a peer reviewing process by the editors and at least two external experts. The authors are encouraged to propose up to five names of potential reviewers, but, obviously, the editors reserve the right of final selection.
Manuscripts must contain a statement to the effect that human studies have been examined by the appropriate ethics committee and have therefore been performed in accordance with the ethical standards laid down in the Declaration of Helsinki.
The presentation of the typescript should be in accordance with the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors¡¯ ¡°Uniform requirements for manuscripts submitted to biomedical journals¡±(see N Engl J Med 1991; 324: 424 428 or Br Med J 1988; 296: 401 405).

Rapid Communications of unusual importance (maximally 4 printed pages) undergo an accelerated reviewing process and are published within 3-4 months after submission. The request for rapid publication must be indicated specifically.

The Abstract (English and German) must not exceed 25 typewritten lines and should not contain references or abbreviations. It should be comprehensible to the non-specialist medical reader. The purpose of the investigation, the basic procedures, the main findings and the principal conclusions should be clearly stated. Submission of structured abstracts (see Ann Intern Med 1990; 113: 69 76) is encouraged.
Five Key words (English and German) should be listed after the abstract. These should be taken from the Index Medicus Thesaurus of Medical Subject Headings (MSH) whenever possible.
The Introduction should describe the background and rationale for the study in a way which is comprehensible to the general medical reader. Abbreviations used in the text must be explained at their first appearance.
The Patients, Materials, and Methods section should give a concise account of clinical details of the subjects studied, of the procedures, equipment and materials employed. The statistical methods used to evaluate the results must be described. Generic names should be used for drugs; if the trade name is mentioned, the manufacturer should be stated and the chemical composition specified.
The Results section should present the findings, supported by appropriate statistical analysis, but without discussion. Numerical data presented in tables or figures should not be duplicated in the text.
The Discussion section should summarize the findings presented in Results and compare them with existing knowledge and state the tentative conclusions.
References should be entered consecutively by Arabic numerals in parenthesis in the text and should be listed in numerical order on a separate sheet in double spacing in sequence of their appearance in the text. The number of references should not exceed 30 (120 for reviews). They should be styled according to the Uniform requirements for manuscripts submitted to biomedical journals . List all authors, but if the number exceeds 6 give the first 6, followed by etal.

Tables must each be typed on a separate sheet and inserted between the reference list and the figure legends. They should be numbered with Arabic numerals in the sequence in which they appear in the text. Each table should be appropriately titled and the contents must be intelligible without reference to the text.
Figures must be numbered consecutively and submitted on separate sheets. The number of figures must be kept to a minimum consistent with clarity of the text and should not repeat numerical data presented in tables or text. Color illustrations will be accepted, but authors are expected to contribute towards the extra production costs. Illustrations should be submitted as originals or high quality prints. Numbers, symbols and lines must be of a size sufficient for easy reading after appropriate reduction of the figure to fit the column width. Each figure should be marked on the reverse with the relevant number and author's name as well as an arrow indicating the top. Each figure must be accompanied by a brief self-explanatory legend, which includes a definition of all symbols and abbreviations used in the figure. The legends should be listed on a separate sheet.
