JBUON aims at the rapid diffusion of scientific knowledge in Oncology.
Its character is multidisciplinary,therefore all aspects of oncologic activities are welcome including clinical research (medical oncology,radiation oncology,surgical oncology,nursing oncology,psychooncology,supportive care),as well as clinically-oriented basic and laboratory research,cancer epidemiology and social and ethical aspects of cancer. Experts of all these disciplines are included in the Editorial Board.
With a rapidly increasing body of new discoveries in clinical therapeutics,the molecular mechanisms that contribute to carcinogenesis,advancements in accurate and early diagnosis etc, JBUON offers a free forum for clinicians and basic researchers to make known promptly their achievements around the world.
With this aim JBUON accepts a broad spectrum of articles such as editorials,original articles,reviews,special articles,short communications,commentaries,letters to the editor and correspondence among authors and readers.

Tables and figures: Tables and figures must be listed in the order they are cited in the text using Arabic numerals and should be placed each on a separate page at the end of your file. Ensure that each table and figure is cited in the text. A short descriptive title should appear above each table and any footnotes, suitably identified, below. Provide headings for all columns and indicate units of measurement, where applicable. Always separate the individual columns using tabs, not spaces.

The reference list should be written in numerical order on a separate page. Follow the standard form of Index Medicus. References to Abstracts and Letters to the Editor must be identified as such. Citation of papers in preparation or submitted for publication, unpublished observations and personal communications should not be included in the reference list. They can, however, appear in the text (e.g. J. Smith, personal communication).

Note: list all authors when 6 or less; when 7 or more list only the first 3 and add “et al.”, e.g.: Bauduceau O, Bollet MA, Pons P et al.

Saunders, Philadelphia, 2008, pp 409-421.
Electronic manuscript
Text: Electronic manuscript formats should be readable by commonly available word processing software (e.g. rich text format [.rtf], Microsoft Word document [.doc], Open Office document [.odt]). Do not submit manuscripts saved in portable document format (.pdf) as they cannot be easily edited. Any words or phrases in the text that you wish to emphasize should be indicated throughout the paper in italic and not in bold. Please delete any annotations or comments from the final text file. Figures: If your article includes figures, please note that electronic submission involves at least two computer files depending on the number of the figures you use: 1) one text file containing the manuscript and the figures at the end of the text, as described above, and 2) each figure separately in their original digital format no matter what that is (.jpg, .pdf, .eps, .tif, .doc, .xls etc.).
Color illustrations
Color illustrations are free of charge.
Permissions
Written permission to reproduce borrowed material (illustrations, tables and photographs) must be obtained. Authors must ensure that appropriate permission has been obtained for the publication of identifiable clinical photographs. Borrowed and previously published material should be acknowledged in the captions in this style: “Reproduced by kind permission of... (publishers) ... from ... (reference)”. It is the responsibility of the author to obtain all such permissions from the original publishers and authors, and to submit them with the manuscript.
Proofs
After manuscript correction by the Editorial Office authors will receive their paper via e-mail in doc format for proofreading. Proofs should be returned to the Editorial Office via e-mail within one week. The purpose of the proof is to check for typesetting or conversion errors and the completeness and accuracy of the text, tables and figures. Substantial changes in content, e.g., new results, corrected values, title and authorship, are not allowed without the approval of the Editor. After publication, further changes can only be made in the form of an Erratum.
Offprints
The corresponding author will receive electronically a reprint in PDF format via e-mail for his/her own files and will be responsible for the distribution of the PDF reprint among his/her co-authors.
Authorship responsibility
The journal’s definition of what qualifies as authorship is based on the Uniform Requirements for Manuscripts Submitted to Biomedical Journals, established by the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE). Authors are those who have contributed to the conception and design of the article, the acquisition of data, or the analysis and interpretation of data, as well as the writing of the article or the revision of its content; and have read and approved the final version of the article before submission.
Ethics
Papers that contain results of human and/or animal studies will be accepted for publication only if it is made clear that a high standard of ethics was applied in carrying out the investigations.
When reporting experiments on human subjects, authors should indicate whether the procedures followed were in accordance with the ethical standards of the responsible committee on human experimentation (institutional and national) and with the Helsinki Declaration of 1975, as revised in 2000. If doubt exists whether the research was conducted in accordance with the Helsinki Declaration, the authors must explain the rationale for their approach and demonstrate that the institutional review body explicitly approved the doubtful aspects of the study. Thus, papers reporting clinical studies should, where appropriate, contain a statement that they have been carried out with the ethical committee’s approval.
When reporting experiments on animals, authors should indicate whether the institutional and national guidelines for the care and use of laboratory animals were followed. Papers disregarding the welfare of experimental animals will be rejected. Authors may find the UKCCCR “Guidelines for the Welfare of Animals in Experimental Neoplasia” helpful in this regard. JBUONdoes not accept work that is funded in any part by tobacco industry sources.
Conflicts of interest
Authors are required to disclose all relevant financial support and potential conflicts of interest in their cover letter, within the manuscript, and on the copyright transfer agreement. If there are no financial disclosures from any author, this should be stated as well. In addition, authors have an ethical responsibility to ensure all research discussed in their work is credible and data are accurate prior to publication. Authors must also clearly identify in the manuscript any discussion of investigational or “off-label” use of drugs or medical devices. The authors will be required to submit such disclosures when submitting their manuscript in the cover letter.
Acknowledgements
All other persons who contributed to the work should be listed in “Acknowledgements”. These include people who provided purely technical help, writing assistance, or general support. All financial support should be clearly acknowledged as well as any detail regarding the role of the funding organization in the creation of the manuscript.
Corresponding author’s responsibilities
The corresponding author is the point of contact with the Editorial Office and Publisher. He or she is responsible for:
- Collecting signed copyright transfer agreements and CME disclosure forms (if the manuscript is associated with a CME quiz) from all authors and submitting these to the Editorial Office with the manuscript.
- Sharing the reviewers’ comments with the other authors and ensuring the requested revisions are made or clearly disputed before resubmitting the manuscript.
- Page proofs. The Editorial Office will e-mail page proofs to the corresponding author. It is up to the corresponding author to share these proofs with the other authors. The corresponding author is responsible for incorporating all the corrections made by the authors and returning the proofs to the Editorial Office within 1 week.
