2. AIMS AND SCOPE
The Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology (JGH) is the official journal of the Asia Pacific Association for Gastroenterology. The Journal publishes peer-reviewed original papers, reviews, metaanalyses and systematic reviews, and editorials concerned with clinical practice and research in the fields of hepatology, gastroenterology and endoscopy. Papers cover the medical, surgical, radiological, pathological, biochemical, physiological, ethical and historical aspects of the subject areas. Clinical trials are afforded expedited publication if deemed suitable. JGH also deals with the basic sciences and experimental work, particularly that with a clear relevance to disease mechanisms and new therapies. Case reports and letters to the Editor will not be considered for publication.
3. MANUSCRIPT CATEGORIES AND REQUIREMENTS
Editorials
These are invited by the Editor-in-Chief or their delegated editor, and should be a brief review of the subject concerned, with reference to and commentary about one or more articles published in the same issue of JGH. Editorials are generally 1200–1500 words, may contain one table or figure and cite up to 15 references, including the source article [this should be cited as J Gastroenterol Hepatol (year);(vol): [this issue].
Review Articles
JGH welcomes reviews of important topics across the scientific basis of gastroenterology and hepatology, and advances in clinical practice. Most published reviews are in response to editorial invitation, including thematically related “mini-series” of reviews. Authors considering submitting a review for JGH are advised to canvas their possible review with the Editor-in-Chief or a colleague editor; this avoids early rejection if the subject matter is not deemed a high priority for the Journal at the time of submission. Reviews are limited to 3500–5000 words, with an abstract of up to 250 words and up to 75 references and 3–7 figures or tables.
Meta-Analyses or Systematic Reviews
JGH particularly welcomes submission of Meta-Analyses and Systematic Reviews, which underpin evidence-based medicine. From timeto- time, an honorarium for preparation of these articles may be made available by the JGH Foundation; for up-to-date information, check the JGH website [http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/journal/10.1111/(ISSN)1440-1746] and recent advertisements in the Journal, or email the Editor-in-Chief. Guidelines for preparation of Meta-Analysis and Systematic Reviews are similar to other reviews, and articles are subject to the usual peer review process. Meta-Analyses and Systematic Reviews have a word limit of 3500–5000 words, with an abstract of up to 250 words and up to 75 references and 3–7 figures or tables.
Original Articles (including clinical trials)
JGH welcomes original articles concerned with clinical practice and research in the fields of hepatology, gastroenterology and endoscopy. Papers can cover the medical, surgical, radiological, pathological, biochemical, physiological, ethical and/or historical aspects of the subject areas. Clinical trials are afforded expedited publication if deemed suitable. JGH also deals with the basic sciences and experimental work, particularly that with a clear relevance to disease mechanisms and new therapies. Original articles are limited to 3000 words, with an abstract of up to 250 words and up to 50 references and 3–7 figures and tables.
Education and Imaging
The Editors welcome contributions to the Education and Imaging section (Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic or Gastrointestinal). The purpose is to present imaging for the evaluation of unusual features of common conditions or diagnosis of unusual cases. Contributions will be reviewed by the Education and Imaging Coordinating Editors. The format of the Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Images pages involves two parts, each of which will occupy up to one journal page. In part 1, a case will be described briefly, including a summary of the presentation, clinical features and key laboratory results. One to two key images will then be presented. It is helpful to the reader if the author responds to questions that follow from the images of the case, such as ‘What is your diagnosis? What are the features indicated on the CT scan? What is the differential diagnosis?’ Part 2 will briefly describe the imaging features, particularly those that lead to diagnosis or which are critical for management. Differential diagnosis should be mentioned. It will be useful to include either further images or pathological details that validate the imaging diagnosis. Occasionally, presentation of analogous cases or related images from a similar case might be appropriate. Please include between one and three references to definitive studies and appropriate reviews of the subject. The format of the Gastrointestinal Images page involves a brief background to and description of the disorder of interest together with two figures of high quality. Colored endoscopic photographs are encouraged. The submission may take the form of a case report or may illustrate particular features from more than one patient.
Letters to the Editor
Letters to the Editor are short, relevant comments on articles published by JGH. These manuscripts should not exceed 700 words in length, do not include an abstract or keywords, and must include the previously published article as a citation, usually the first.
4. PREPARING THE SUBMISSION
Style
Manuscripts should follow the style of the Vancouver agreement detailed in the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors’ revised ‘Uniform Requirements for Manuscripts Submitted to Biomedical Journals: Writing and Editing for Biomedical Publication’, as presented at http://www.ICMJE.org/.
Format. Manuscripts should use 1.5 line spacing.
Spelling. The journal uses US spelling and authors should therefore follow the latest edition of the Merriam-Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary.
Units. All measurements must be given in SI units as outlined in the latest edition of Units, Symbols and Abbreviations: A Guide for Biological and Medical Editors and Authors (Royal Society of Medicine Press, London).
Abbreviations should be used sparingly and only where they ease the reader’s task by reducing repetition of long technical terms. Initially use the word in full, followed by the abbreviation in parentheses. Thereafter use the abbreviation.
Trade names should not be used. Drugs should be referred to by their generic names, rather than brand names.
Parts of the Manuscript
The title page and main text file should be submitted as one file. Figures should be submitted as a separate file.
Title page
The title page should contain:
(i) A short informative title that contains the major key words. The title should not contain abbreviations (see Wiley's best practice SEO tips). Titles must not be longer than 120 characters (including spaces);
(ii) The full names of the authors;
(iii) The author's institutional affiliations at which the work was carried out;
(iv) The full postal and email address, plus telephone number, of the author to whom correspondence about the manuscript should be sent;
(v) Disclosure statement; and
(vi) Acknowledgements.
The present address of any author, if different from that where the work was carried out, should be supplied in a footnote.
Disclosure statement
The source of financial grants and other funding should be acknowledged, including a frank declaration of the authors’ industrial links and affiliations. In the case of clinical trials or any article describing use of a commercial device, therapeutic substance or food must state whether there are any potential conflicts of interest for each of the authors: failure to make such a statement may jeopardise the article being sent out for peer-review.
For details on what to include in this section, see the ‘Conflict of Interest’ section in the Editorial Policies and Ethical Considerations section below. Authors should ensure they liaise with all co-authors to confirm agreement with the final statement.
Acknowledgments
The contribution of colleagues or institutions should also be acknowledged. Thanks to anonymous reviewers are not allowed.
Main text
As papers are single-blind peer reviewed the main text file should not include any information that might identify the authors.
The main text of the manuscript should be presented in the following order: (i) title, abstract and key words, (ii) text, (iii) references, (iv) tables (each table complete with title and footnotes), (vii) figure legends. Figures and supporting information should be submitted as separate files. Footnotes to the text are not allowed and any such material should be incorporated into the text as parenthetical matter.
Abstract and keywords
All articles, with the exception of Editorials, must contain a structured abstract that states in 250 words or less the purpose, basic procedures, main findings and principal conclusions of the study. Divide the abstract with the headings: Background and Aim, Methods, Results, Conclusions. The abstracts of reviews need not be structured. The abstract should not contain abbreviations or references.
Three to five keywords should be supplied below the abstract and should be taken from those recommended by the US National Library of Medicine’s Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) browser (http://www.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/meshhome.html).
Text
Authors should use subheadings to divide the sections of their manuscript: Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion.
References
The Vancouver system of referencing should be used. In the text, references should be cited using superscript Arabic numerals in the order in which they appear. If cited only in tables or figure legends, number them according to the first identification of the table or figure in the text.
In the reference list, the references should be numbered and listed in order of appearance in the text.
Cite the names of all authors when there are six or less; when seven or more list the first three followed by et al.
Names of journals should be abbreviated in the style used in MEDLINE.
Only literature that is published or in press (with the name of the publication known) should be cited in the reference list. Abstracts and letters to the editor may be cited, but they must be less than 3 years old and identified as such. Reference to unpublished data, submitted manuscruots and personal communications should appear in the text only as in the following example: (Chercheur X, unpublished data). If the owner of the unpublished data or personal communication is not an author of the manuscript under review, a signed statement is required verifying the accuracy of the attributed information and agreement to its publication.
List all authors up to six, using six and "et al." when the number is greater than six.
References should be listed in the following form:
