All aspects of paediatric cardiology are covered within the journal. The content includes original articles, brief reports, editorials, reviews, and papers devoted to continuing professional development. High-quality colour figures are published on a regular basis, and without charge to the authors. Regular supplements are published containing the abstracts of the annual meetings of the Association for European Paediatric Cardiology, along with other occasional supplements. These are supplied free to subscribers.

Please use the following URL: http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/cty Editorial policies Cardiology in the Young is devoted to cardiovascular issues affecting the young and the older patient with the sequels of cardiac disease acquired in childhood. Submission of both basic research and clinical papers is encouraged. Articles on fundamental principles will also be considered for publication. Reviews on recent developments are welcome. The Journal serves the interest of all professionals concerned with these topics. By design, the Journal is international and multidisciplinary in its approach, and the members of the Editorial Board take an active role in the Journal's mission. Prospective authors are encouraged to consult with the editors and members of the Editorial Board with any inquiries. The editors encourage the submission of articles from developing countries. Articles should be concerned with original research not published previously and not being considered for publication elsewhere. Submission of a manuscript to the Journal gives the publisher the right to publish that paper if it is accepted, and the copyright of the manuscript becomes property of the publisher. Manuscripts may be edited to improve clarity and expression. Authors must ensure that their studies comply with appropriate institutional and national guidelines for ethical matters. Specifically, by submission of a manuscript, the authors are responsible for compliance with guidelines and regulations of the authors' institution and all appropriate governmental agencies. Articles including human subjects must include a statement that informed consent was obtained and that the study was reviewed and approved by the institution's committee on human experimentation. Articles including animal experimentation must conform to the principles of the American Physiological Society, and a statement acknowledging conformation to these standards must be included in the Materials and methods section of the manuscript. Authors are also requested to identify possible conflicts of interest, especially as it relates to commercial sponsorship or equity holdings. Language The language of the Journal is English, but acceptance of a manuscript will reflect scientific rather than grammatical content. The editors undertake to facilitate the publication of papers from those authors whose native language is not English. Manuscripts Manuscripts should be submitted via the web-based peer-review system, CTY Manuscript Central and must include a complete set of Figures. Further information regarding Figure formats is outlined below. Type all pages with double-spacing and wide margins on all pages, with left justified margins. Divide the manuscript into the following sections: Title Page, Abstract, Keywords (3-6), Introduction, Materials and methods, Results, Discussion, Acknowledgements, References, Tables, Figure legends and Figures. Cover letter A submission letter is required for all papers. A submission letter template will be attached to the confirmation email that the author will receive after completing online submission. Authorship Authorship should be assumed only by those workers who have contributed materially to the work and its report, and who accept the responsibility for the accuracy of the concepts expressed. Colleagues who have otherwise assisted or collaborated should be recognized in the section for acknowledgements. An excellent guide to authorship is given by the Style Manual Committee of the Council of Biology Editors, and the editors encourage consultation with this source. Style The Journal uses the English language, and avoids the use of Latin terms such as 憇uperior vena cava? Anatomic terms should be given in the English language. Do not use abbreviations. Headlines and subheadings should be liberally employed in the methods, results, and discussion sections. Use short paragraphs whenever possible. The authors should strive for clarity of expression, avoiding, in particular, the use of jargon. Authors should also avoid conventions such as Group 1, Group 2, and so on, using descriptive titles rather than alphanumeric codes. Title page Follow the on-screen instruction on CTY Manuscript Central to enter each piece. The title page should include a descriptive title, a running head title not to exceed 50 characters, authors' complete names (first names and initials followed by family name), academic addresses, corresponding author (with full address, telephone and fax numbers, and email address), keywords (3? for indexing purposes and words not used in main title of article), and all sources of financial support, including grants from non-profit organizations and/or any commercial support. Authors' qualifications or academic positions should not be included, except in the address for correspondence Abstract The Abstract should be no more than 250 words and should include statements identifying relevant methods and results justifying publication. Do not use abbreviations. Introduction The Introduction should be brief and set out the purposes for which the study has been performed. It should not include an extensive review of the literature. Materials and methods The Materials and methods should be sufficiently detailed so that readers and reviewers can understand precisely what has been done without studying the references directly. The description may be abbreviated when well-accepted techniques are used with appropriate reference to previously published methods. Statements confirming conformation to institutional and governmental review of the experimental protocol (see above in the Editorial policies section) should be included here. Results The results should be presented precisely. Reference to Tables and Figures, to the extent that they contribute substantively to help the reader understand clearly the relevant positive and negative findings, is encouraged. Keep discussion of their importance to a minimum in this section of the manuscript. Discussion The Discussion should relate directly to the study being reported. The Discussion should interpret the results, should describe the relevance of the results, and should include a discussion of the limitations of the study. Do not include a general review of the topic. Acknowledgements Acknowledgements should follow the discussion. References References should be numbered consecutively (in superscript) as they appear in the text. Type the reference list with double-spacing on a separate sheet. References (using Index Medicus abbreviations) should appear in the style as demonstrated below. Please note that if more than six authors, the first three authors should be listed and then 慹t al.?
