Instructions to Authors
MANUSCRIPT SUBMISSION
A submitted manuscript must be an original contribution not previously published (except as an abstract or preliminary report), must not be under consideration for publication elsewhere, and, if accepted, must not be published elsewhere in similar form, in any language, without the consent of Lippincott Williams & Wilkins. Each person listed as an author is expected to have participated in the study to a significant extent. Although the editors and referees make every effort to ensure the validity of published manuscripts, the final responsibility rests with the authors, not with the Journal, its editors, or the publisher.
Patient anonymity and informed consent
It is the author抯 responsibility to ensure that a patient抯 anonymity be carefully protected and to verify that any experimental investigation with human subjects reported in the manuscript was per-formed with informed consent and following all the guidelines for experimental investigation with human subjects required by the institution(s) with which all the authors are affiliated. Authors should mask patients?eyes and remove patients?names from figures unless they obtain written consent from the patients and submit written consent with the manuscript.
Copyright
All authors must sign a copy of the journal抯 揂uthorship Responsibility, Financial Disclosure, and Copyright Transfer?form and submit it with the original manuscript.
Permissions
Authors must submit written permission from the copyright owner (usually the publisher) to use direct quotations, tables, or illustrations that have appeared in copyrighted form elsewhere, along with complete details about the source. Any permissions fees that might be required by the copyright owner are the responsibility of the authors requesting use of the borrowed material, not the responsibility of Lippincott Williams & Wilkins.
Preparation of manuscript
Manuscripts that do not adhere to the following instructions will be returned to the corresponding author for technical revision be-fore undergoing peer review.
General format
Submit manuscripts in English in triplicate (one original and two copies) and printed on standard 8?3 11-inch (21 x 28-cm) paper with at least a 1-inch (2.5 cm) margin on all sides. Double space all copy, including legends, footnotes, tables, and references, and print on one side of the sheet only. If a manuscript is accepted for publication, the authors must then submit the final, accepted ver-sion of the manuscript on disk.
Title page
Include on the title page (a) complete manuscript title; (b) authors?full names, highest academic degrees, and affiliations; (c) name and address for correspondence, including fax number, telephone number, and e-mail address; (d) address for reprints if different from that of corresponding author; (e) sources of support that require acknowledgment; and (f) a running title for the article. Acknowledge all forms of support, including pharmaceutical and industry support, in an Acknowledgments paragraph.
Unstructured abstract and key words
Limit the abstract to 150 words in paragraph format with no headings, submitted on a separate page. The abstract should include the reason for the study or report, the methods, results, and conclusions, including practical points for readers. Limit the use of abbreviations and acronyms, and avoid general statements (e.g., 搕he significance of the results is discussed?. List three to five key words or phrases for indexing purposes.
Text
Organize the manuscript into four main headings: Introduction, Patients and Methods, Results, and Discussion. Define abbreviations at first mention in text and in each table and figure. If a brand name is cited, supply the manufacturer抯 name and address (city and state/country).
Abbreviations
For a list of standard abbreviations, consult the Council of Biology Editors Style Guide (available from Council of Science Editors, c/o Drohan Management Group, 11250 Roger Bacon Drive, Suite 8, Reston, VA 20190-5202) or other standard sources. Write out the full term for each abbreviation at its first use unless it is a standard unit of measure. Standard rheumatology abbreviations can be found in Bonbardieri S, Caponi L, Arend WP. A unified list of acronyms for the rheumatology literature. Arthritis Rheum 1998;41: 1901?.
References
The authors are responsible for the accuracy of the references. Key the references (double-spaced) at the end of the manuscript. Cite the references in text in the order of appearance. Cite unpublished data, such as papers submitted but not yet accepted for publication or personal communications, in parentheses in the text. If there are more than three authors, name only the first three authors and then use et al. Refer to the List of Journals Indexed in Index Medicus for abbreviations of journal names, or access the list at http:// www.nlm.nih.gov/tsd/serials/lji.html. Sample references are given below

Figures
Cite figures consecutively in the text, and number them in the order in which they are discussed. Write the first author抯 last name, the figure number and figure part (1A, 1B, 1C), and an arrow to indicate the top edge of the figure on a label pasted to the back of each figure. Submit all artwork in triplicate in camera-ready form; illustrations should be glossy prints or high-quality, laser-printed illustrations. Photocopies are unacceptable. Lettering should be large enough that it will remain legible after figure reduction; type-written or unprofessional lettering is unacceptable. Figure parts (A, B, C) may be left unlabeled (but clearly marked on back) for professional placement by the Journal抯 printer.
Figure legends
Legends must be submitted for all figures. They should be brief and specific, and they should appear on a separate manuscript page after the references. Use scale markers in the image for electron micrographs, and indicate the type of stain used.
Color figures
The journal accepts for publication color figures that will enhance an article. Authors who submit color figures will receive an estimate of the cost for color reproduction. If they decide not to pay for color reproduction, they can request that the figures be converted to black and white at no charge.
Tables
Cite tables consecutively in the text, and number them in that order. Key each on a separate sheet, and include the table title, appropriate column heads, and explanatory legends (including definitions of any abbreviations used). Do not embed tables within the body of the manuscript. They should be self-explanatory and should supplement, rather than duplicate, the material in the text.
Style
Pattern manuscript style after the American Medical Association Manual of Style (9th edition). Stedman抯 Medical Dictionary (27th edition) and Merriam Webster抯 Collegiate Dictionary (10th edition) should be used as standard references. Refer to drugs and therapeutic agents by their accepted generic or chemical names, and do not abbreviate them. Use code numbers only when a generic name is not yet available. In that case, supply the chemical name and a figure giving the chemical structure of the drug. Capitalize the trade names of drugs and place them in parentheses after the generic names. To comply with trademark law, include the name and location (city and state in USA; city and country outside USA) of the manufacturer of any drug, supply, or equipment mentioned in the manuscript. Use the metric system to express units of measure and degrees Celsius to express temperatures, and use SI units rather than conventional units.
ADDRESS FOR MANUSCRIPT SUBMISSION
Send the manuscript with a cover letter that includes the corresponding author抯 e-mail address and full mailing address to H. Ralph Schumacher, Jr., MD, Journal of Clinical Rheumatology, Philadelphia VA Medical Center, Arthritis Research-151K, University & Woodland Avenues, Philadelphia, PA 19104; 215-823-4480; schumacr@mail. med.upenn.edu (please see the checklist at the end of these Instructions before mailing manuscripts). The editorial office will acknowledge receipt of your manuscript and will give you a manuscript number for reference. Address all inquiries regarding manuscripts not yet accepted or published to the journal抯 editorial office.
AFTER ACCEPTANCE
Disk submission
Authors must submit an electronic version of the final accepted manuscript along with a printout of the final accepted manuscript. Electronic files should be submitted in a standard word processing format; Microsoft Word (or Corel WordPerfect) is preferred. Although conversions can be made from other word processing formats, the vagaries of the conversion process may introduce errors. Do not submit ASCII text files. Do not use automatic numbering or footnotes for references. The Journal does not assume responsibility for errors in the conversion of customized software, newly released software, and special characters. Authors preparing manuscripts on Macintosh computers should not use the Fast Save option. Each submitted disk must be clearly labeled with the name of the author, item title, journal title, word processing program and version, and file name used. The disk should contain only one file梩he final version of the accepted manuscript.
Page proofs and corrections
Corresponding authors will receive electronic page proofs to check the copyedited and typeset article before publication. Portable document format (PDF) files of the typeset pages and support documents (eg, reprint order form) will be sent to the corresponding author by e-mail. Complete instructions will be provided with the e-mail for downloading and printing the files and for faxing the corrected pages to the publisher. Those authors without an e-mail address will receive traditional page proofs. It is the author抯 responsibility to ensure that there are no errors in the proofs. Authors may be charged for alterations to the proofs beyond those required to correct errors or to answer queries. Proofs must be checked carefully and corrections faxed within 24 to 48 hours of receipt, as requested in the cover letter accompanying the page proofs.
Reprints
Authors will receive a reprint order form and a price list with the page proofs. Reprint requests should be faxed to the editorial office with the corrected proofs, if possible.
