GALLEY PROOFSAs soon as a manuscript has been edited and typeset, a copy of the galley proof will be sent to the author. Timely correction of the galley proof is essential to ensure speedy publication of the article. At this stage, authors may make only minor corrections; major rewrites cannot be accepted, nor can the author make significant changes to the manuscript (i.e., add new data, figures etc). At this point, the author may order reprints. As the journal tries to minimize the cost of publication to allow for a wider distribution, the journal must charge for reprints. The cost is based on the number of printed pages in each article. The minimum order is 100 reprints.
Please note that in the galley proof, tables and figures are placed after the text, whereas in the final layout they are placed as referred to in the text.

Authors wishing to publish within this section should submit a cover page and abstract to the Hepato-Gastroenterology editorial office by fax or e-mail before submission of the article in its entirety.
If accepted, the paper should be limited to 10 double-spaced typed pages (font size 11 or 12), including tables, figures and references. Three copies of the paper and figures, together with a Word version of the manuscript on 3.5" disk should be submitted as quickly as possible to ensure speedy publication.
