Names of drugs: The proper (generic) name should be used throughout; the trade (proprietary) name may be placed in parenthesis the first time the drug is referred to.
Tables: Most papers do not require more than two or three tables. They should not duplicate information in the text. They should be designed to fit one or two columns of the Journal, and only horizontal lines should be used. Abbreviations should be explained. If means are used the standard deviation (or error) and 搉?should be included. Tables should be separated from the text, titled and numbered consecutively.
Illustrations: Four or five illustrations should be sufficient for most articles. If the author feels that more are required, a charge of half the cost may be made.

General advice
Papers prepared for oral presentation are unsuitable for publication without revision.
Those whose first language is not that of the manuscript should seek the advice of an experienced writer to be sure that their language is correct and idiomatic.
In general the active voice is preferred, and 揑?or 搘e?is acceptable.
Authors will find it useful to study a recent issue of the Journal.
There are many texts on scientific writing. Three useful ones are: Scientific Style and Format: the CBE Manual for Authors, Editors, and Publishers, sixth edition (Cambridge University Press, New York, 1994), Writing and Publishing in Medicine, third edition, Huth (Williams & Wilkins, Baltimore, 1999) and How to Write and Publish a Scientific Paper, second edition, Day (ISI Press, Philadelphia, 1983).
Tables and graphs should be used only if they convey more than the number of words that would occupy the same amount of space in the text. Data presented in tables and graphs should not be repeated in the text, which should contain only commentary, comparisons, conclusions and generalizations from the data. Tables should be used if exact values are important; if a trend is to be shown, a graph may be more suitable.
