Instructions to Authors
The Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics (JMPT) is dedicated to the advancement of chiropractic health care principles and practice and seeks to fulfill this purpose by the critical review and publication of research and scholarly work relating to its scientific bases and clinical applications, to include supportive presentations of an educational and/or professional nature. Continuing call for papers includes:
Investigations梤eports of new research findings into the enhancement factors of health, causal aspects of disease, and the establishment of clinical efficacies of related diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.
Hypotheses梡reliminary studies that may establish a solid basis for further in-depth investigations.
Literature reviews梒ritical assessments of current knowledge of a particular subject of interest, with emphasis on better correlation, the pointing up of ambiguities, and the delineation of areas that may constitute hypotheses for further study. Meta-analysis is included here.
Clinical procedures梥uccinct, informative, didactic papers on diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, based heavily on authoritative current knowledge.
Case reports梐ccounts of the diagnosis and treatment of unusual, difficult, or otherwise interesting cases that may have independent educational value or may contribute to better standardization of care for a particular health problem when correlated with similar reports of others.
Case reviews梐 retrospective comparative assessment of the diagnosis and treatment of several cases of a similar condition, ie, the comparative evaluation of two or more (perhaps hundreds) of case reports.
Technical reports梩he reporting and evaluation of new or improved equipment or procedures, or the critical evaluation of old equipment or procedures that have not previously been critically evaluated.
Editorials梩he presentation of points of view or opinion relating to the editorial purpose of the JMPT, the emphasizing of evidential support for the fulfillment of that purpose, or the discussion of related controversial issues.
Commentary梕ditorial-like, more in-depth essays on matters relating to the clinical, professional, educational, and/or politicolegal aspects of health care principles and practice.
Letters to the editor梒ommunications that are directed specifically to the editor that critically assess some aspect of the JMPT, particularly as such assessment may add to, clarify, or point up a deficiency in a recently published paper; authors are afforded the privilege of a counter-response.
Conference reports梔ocumentation of related scientific conferences, particularly abstracts of presentations, before their publication in a proceedings volume or elsewhere.
Manuscripts are accepted for consideration to publish with the understanding that they represent original, unpublished work submitted solely to the JMPT; ie, it has not been and will not be submitted elsewhere until a final decision has been reached by the editor. All manuscripts (meaning any material submitted for consideration to publish) must be accompanied by a properly completed Transfer of Copyright form, signed by all authors and by employer if submission represents a 搘ork for hire.?Upon such submission, it is to be accepted by all authors that no further dissemination of any part of the material contained in the manuscript is permitted, in any manner, without prior written approval from the editor; nonobservance of this copyright holder stipulation may result in withdrawal of submission for consideration to publish. The following editorial policies will apply:
Informed consent桵anuscripts that report the results of experimental investigations with human subjects must include a statement that informed consent was obtained, in writing, from the subject or legal guardian, after the procedure(s) had been fully explained. The JMPT endorses the Declaration of Helsinki, and all related conditions regarding the experimental use of human subjects and their informed consent will apply.
Patient anonymity桬thical and legal considerations require careful attention to the protection of the patient's anonymity in case reports and elsewhere. Identifying information such as names, initials, actual case numbers, and specific dates must be avoided; identifying information about a patient's personal history and characteristics should be disguised. Photographs or artistic likenesses of subjects are publishable only with their written consent or the consent of legal guardian; the signed consent form, giving any special conditions (ie, eyes blocked off), must accompany manuscript.
Authorship桝ll authors of papers submitted to JMPT must have an intellectual stake in the material presented for publication. All must be willing to answer for the content of the work. Authors should be willing to certify participation in the work, vouch for its validity, acknowledge reviewing and approving the final version of the paper, acknowledge that the work has not been previously published elsewhere, and be able to produce raw data if requested.
Conflict of Interest桰n recognition that it may at times be difficult to judge material from authors where proprietary interests are concerned, authors should be ready to answer requests from the editor regarding potential conflicts of interest. The editor makes the final determination concerning the extent of information released to the public.
Acknowledgments桰llustrations from other publications must be submitted with written approval from the publisher (and author if required) and must be appropriately acknowledged in the manuscript.
Manuscript preparation and submission桵anuscripts must be prepared in accordance with the Declaration of Vancouver 揢niform Requirements for Manuscripts Submitted to Biomedical Journals?(available from the JMPT Editorial Office or from www.icmje.org), and the original and two clear photocopies are to be submitted. The author should be sure to retain an additional copy in case of loss of the submission copies in transit.
Review process桝ll manuscripts are subject to blind (without author or institutional identification) critical review by 2 or more experts in the related field to assist the editor in determining appropriateness to JMPT objectives, originality, validity, importance of content, substantiation of conclusions, publishability, and possible need for improvement. Reviewers' comments will be returned with manuscript if rejected or if strong recommendations for improvement are made. All reviewers remain anonymous.
Acceptance for publication桝cceptance of a manuscript for 揷onsideration to publish?and subsequent review processing does not necessarily imply acceptance to publish, even though it may be found to be well compiled and within JMPT editorial objectives. Aside from rejection for uncorrectable faults, a well-compiled manuscript may also be rejected because it adds little new information to work that was previously published in the JMPT or addresses a new topic that deserves more in-depth reporting. In either case, the editor will usually provide the author of a rejected manuscript with recommendations that may be helpful to submission elsewhere.
Author responsibility桵anuscripts accepted for publication are subject to such editorial modification and revision as may be necessary to ensure clarity, conciseness, correct usage, and conformance to approved style. However, insofar as authors are responsible for all information contained in their published work, they will be consulted if substantive changes are required and will have further opportunity to make any necessary corrections on the proofs.
Reprints and copies桝uthors of papers published in the JMPT are encouraged to make reprints available to interested members of the scientific, academic, and clinical communities so that the inherent knowledge may be more widely disseminated; a reprint order form will be provided with the proofs to facilitate ordering quantity reprints. One complimentary copy of the JMPT issue in which an author's work appears will be provided at no charge; additional copies, if desired, must be ordered at regular cost directly from the publisher.
Reproductions桾he entire contents of the JMPT is protected by copyright, and no part may be reproduced (outside of the fair use stipulation of Public Law 94-553) by any means without prior permission from the publisher in writing. In particular, this policy applies to the reprinting of an original article in another publication and the use of any illustrations or text to create a new work.
Manuscript preparation
Authors are encouraged to submit final manuscripts on computer diskette along with the printed revised copy. Authors accept responsibility for the submitted diskette exactly matching the printout of the final version of the manuscript. Manuscripts produced on IBM or compatible computers are preferred. Macintosh files should not be saved using the Fast Save option. Identify the diskette with journal name, manuscript number, name of first author, manuscript title, name of manuscript file, type of hardware, operating system and version number, and software and version number. Each article should be on a separate diskette. Please put all manuscript parts (text, references and figure legends) in one file.
The JMPT does not assume responsibility for errors in conversion of customized software, newly released software and special characters. Mathematics and tabular material will be processed in the traditional manner.
Approved manuscript style
Manuscripts submitted for consideration to publish in the JMPT must be compiled in accordance with the Declaration of Vancouver 揢niform Requirements for Manuscripts Submitted to Biomedical Journals.?The following instructions are essentially in accordance with those requirements, and manuscripts not so compiled are subject to return to the author for revision.
Summary of requirements
Type the manuscript double-spaced, including title page, abstract, text, acknowledgments, references, tables, and figure legends. (Note: footnotes should be avoided by including any necessary explanatory information within the text in parentheses). Do not break any words (hyphenate) at the end of any line; move to the next line if entire word does not fit.
Each manuscript component should begin on a new page, in the following sequence:
- Title page (page 1)
- Abstract and key word page (page 2)
- Text pages (starting on page 3)
- Acknowledgment page
- Reference page(s)
- Table page(s)
- Legends for illustrations pages(s)
Detailed preparation procedure
Type the manuscript on white bond paper, 216 by 279 mm (8?by 11 in) or ISO A4 (212 by 297 mm), with wide margins of at least 25 mm (1 in). Type only on one side of the paper. Use double-spacing throughout, including title page, abstract, text, acknowledgments, references, tables, and legends for illustrations. Begin each of the following sections on separate pages: title (including author name[s], address and phone number of principal author, running head, etc), abstract and key words, text, acknowledgments, references, individual tables, and figure legends. Again, use double-spacing throughout, and do not hyphenate words at the end of any line.
Units of Measurement桰n most countries the International System of Units (SI) is standard, or is becoming so, and bioscientific journals in general are in the process of requiring the reporting of data in these metric units. However, insofar as this practice is not yet universal, particularly in the United States, it is permissible for the time being to report data in the units in which calculations were originally made, followed by the opposite unit equivalents in parentheses; ie, English units (SI units) or SI units (English units). Nevertheless, researchers and authors considering submission of manuscripts to the JMPT should begin to adopt SI as their primary system of measurement as quickly as it is feasible.
Abbreviations and symbols桿se only standard abbreviations for units of measurement, statistical terms, biological references, journal names, etc. Avoid abbreviations in titles and abstracts. The full term for which an abbreviation stands should precede its first use in the manuscript, unless it is a standard unit of measurement. For standard abbreviations, consult the following: (1) Uniform requirements for manuscripts submitted to biomedical journals (Ann Intern Med 1997;126:36-47); (2) American Medical Association manual of style. 9th ed. Baltimore: Williams & Wilkins; 1997; (3) Scientific style and format, the CBE manual for authors, editors, and publishers. 6th ed. Cambridge (UK): Cambridge University Press; 1994; (4) O'Connor M, Woodford FP. Writing scientific papers in English: an ELSE-Ciba Foundation guide for authors. Amsterdam: Elsevier-Excerpta Medica; 1975.
Title page
The title page should carry (1) the title of the article, which should be concise but informative; (2) a short running head or footline of no more than 40 characters (count letters and spaces) placed at the foot of the title page and identified; (3) first name, middle initial, and last name of each author, with highest academic degree(s); (4) names of department(s) and institution(s) to which work should be attributed; (5) disclaimers, if any; (6) name, address, phone, and fax number of author responsible for correspondence, proofreading of galleys, and reprint requests (usually principal author); (7) the source(s) of support in the form of grants, equipment, drugs, or all of these.
Abstract and key word page
The second page should carry an abstract of no more than 150 words, 250 if using a structured abstract (see JMPT February 1992 for editorial on the use of structured abstracts for original data reports and reviews of the literature; JMPT March/April 1993 for editorial on the use of structured abstracts for case reports). The structured abstract is now required for all original data reports, reviews of the literature and case reports; prose abstracts will be accepted for use in only certain original papers not reporting data (ie, position papers, historical treatises).
Below the abstract, provide, and identify as such, 3 to 10 key indexing terms or short phrases that will assist indexers in cross-indexing your article and that may be published with the abstract. Use terms from the Index Medicus Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) as much as possible.
Text pages
The text of observational and experimental articles is usually梑ut not necessarily梔ivided into sections with the headings Introduction, Materials and Methods, Results, Discussion, and Conclusions. Long articles may need subheadings within some sections to clarify or break up content. Other types of articles such as case reports, reviews, editorials, and commentaries may need other formats. Authors should consult previous issues of the JMPT for further guidance.
Introduction
Clearly state the purpose of the article. Summarize the rationale for the study or observation. Give only strictly pertinent references and do not review the subject extensively; the introduction should serve only to introduce what was done and why it was done.
Materials and methods
Describe your selection of the observational or experimental subjects (patients or experimental animals, including controls) clearly. Identify the methods, apparatus (manufacturer's name and address in parentheses) and procedures in sufficient detail to allow others to reproduce the work for comparison of results. Give references to establish methods, provide references and brief descriptions for methods that have been published but may not be well known, describe new or substantially modified methods and give reasons for using them and evaluate their limitations.
When reporting experiments on or with human subjects, indicate whether the procedures used were in accordance with the ethical standards of the Committee on Human Experimentation of the institution in which the research was conducted and/or were done in accordance with the Helsinki Declaration of 1975. When reporting experiments on animals, indicate whether the institution's or the National Research Council's guide for the care and use of laboratory animals was followed. Identify precisely all drugs and chemicals used, including generic name(s), dosage(s), and route(s) of administration. Do not use patient names, initials, or hospital numbers or in any manner give information by which the individuals can be identified.
Include numbers of observations and the statistical significance of the findings when appropriate. Detailed statistical analyses, mathematical derivations, and the like may sometimes be suitably presented in the form of one or more appendixes.
Results
Present your results in logical sequence in the text, tables, and illustrations. Do not repeat in the text all the data in the tables, illustrations, or both; emphasize or summarize only important observations.
Discussion
Emphasize the new and important aspects of the study and conclusions that follow from them. Do not repeat in detail data given in the Results section. Include in the Discussion the implications of the findings and their limitations and relate the observations to other relevant studies. Conclusions that may be drawn from the study may be included in this discussion section; however, in some cases, they may be more succinctly presented in a separate section.
Conclusions
The principal conclusions should be directly linked to the goals of the study. Unqualified statements and conclusions not completely supported by your data should be avoided. Avoid claiming priority and alluding to work that has not been completed. State new hypotheses when warranted but clearly label them as such. Recommendations (for further study, etc), when appropriate, may be included.
Acknowledgments
Acknowledge only persons who have made substantive contributions to the study itself; this would ordinarily include support personnel such as statistical or manuscript review consultants, but not subjects used in the study or clerical staff. Authors are responsible for obtaining written permission from persons being acknowledged by name because readers may infer their endorsement of the data and conclusions.
Reference pages
References are to be numbered consecutively as they are first used in the text (placed in line in parentheses) and listed in that order (not alphabetically) beginning on a separate sheet following the text pages. The style (including abbreviation of journal names) must be in accordance with that specified by the US National Library of Medicine: see recent January issue of Index Medicus for a complete listing of indexed journals.
Only those references that actually provide support for a particular statement in the text, tables, and/or figures should be used. Excessive use of references should be avoided; normally, 1 or 2 authoritative references to support a particular point are sufficient. A short article of up to 5 or 6 manuscript pages may be adequately supported by 5 to 10 references; longer articles of up to 20 pages by 15 to 25.
References must be verified by the author(s) against the original document. Abstracts, 搖npublished observations?and 損ersonal communications?may not be used as references, although reference to written (not verbal) communications may be inserted (in parentheses) in the text. Information from manuscripts submitted but not yet accepted may be referred to (in parentheses) in the text. Manuscripts accepted but not yet published may be included in the references with the designation 揑n press.?When a previously cited reference is used again, it is designated in the text (in parentheses) by the number originally assigned to it by its first use: do not assign it another number or again list it in the references as 搊p cit.?BR>
For the most part, sources of information and reference support for a bioscientific paper should be limited to journals (rather than books) because that knowledge is generally considered more recent and (in the case of refereed journals) more accurate. Consequently, the basic form for approved reference style is established by journal listings; others (books, etc) are modified from journal listings as may be required. A summary of journal reference style is as follows:
Last name of author(s) and their initials in capitals separated by a space with a comma separating each author. (List all authors when 6 or fewer; when 7 or more, list only the first 6 and add et al.)
Title of article with first word capitalized and all other words in lower case, except names of persons, places, etc.
Name of journal, abbreviated according to Index Medicus; year of publication (followed by a semicolon); volume number (followed by a colon); and inclusive pages of article (with redundant number dropped, ie, 105-10).
Specific examples of correct reference form for journals and their modifications to other publications are as follows:

Table pages
Type each table on a separate sheet; remember to double-space all data. If applicable, identify statistical measures of variation, such as standard deviation and standard error of mean. If data are used from another published or unpublished source, obtain permission and acknowledge fully.
Using arabic numerals, number each table consecutively (in the order in which they were listed in the text in parentheses) and supply a brief title to appear at the top of the table above a horizontal line; place any necessary explanatory matter in footnotes at the bottom of the table below a horizontal line and identify with footnote symbols *, ? ? ?  , ? **, 唵, 噰, etc.
Do not submit tables as photographs; do not use any vertical lines within the table, or any horizontal lines other than at the top and bottom as specified. Avoid as much as possible the use of too many tables in relation to length of the text, as this may produce difficulties in layout of the pages: examine past issues of the JMPT to estimate how many tables can be used per 1000 words of text.
The editor, on accepting a manuscript, may recommend that excess tables or tables containing important backup information too extensive to publish be deposited with the National Auxiliary Publications Service or made available to readers by the author(s). In that event, an appropriate statement will be added to the text. Submit such additional tables with the manuscript.
Illustration legend pages
Type legends for illustrations double-spaced, starting on a separate page, following the table pages. Identify each legend with arabic numerals in the same manner and sequence as they were indicated in the text in parentheses (ie, Figure 1). Do not type legends on artwork copy or on pages to which illustrations may have been mounted; they must be typed on separate pages from the illustrations themselves.
When symbols, arrows, numbers or letters are used to identify parts of the illustrations, identify and explain each one clearly (if necessary) in the legend. Explain internal scale and method of staining in photomicrographs, if applicable.
Illustration preparation
Illustrations (including lettering, numbering and/or symbols) must be of professional quality and of sufficient size so that when reduced for publication all details will be clearly discernible; rough sketches with freehand or typed lettering are not acceptable. All illustrations (including x-rays) are best submitted as professional-quality, unmounted, black and white glossy prints at least 127 by 173 mm (5 by 7 in) but no larger than 203 by 254 mm (8 by 10 in). Do not place titles or detailed explanations on the illustration; such information should be given in the figure legends. Do not send x-ray film.
In the event that photographing of illustrations is not feasible, or if percentage of reduction of lettering, etc, cannot be accurately estimated, the original illustrations can be sent with a hand-letter overlay sheet showing the placement of information, which the printer can place in at the time reduction size is determined. However, the JMPT assumes no responsibility for the safe arrival or return of this original artwork.
Each figure should have a label on its back indicating the number of the figure, author name(s), and top of the figure indicated with an arrow. Do not write on the back of the illustrations themselves; do not mount them on other sheets; do not bend, scratch or mar them with paper clips.
Photomicrographs must have internal scale markers. Symbols, arrows, or letters used in the photomicrographs should contrast with the background.
If photographs of persons are used, either the subjects must not be identifiable or their pictures must be accompanied by written permission to publish the photographs.
Cite each figure in the text (generally in parentheses) in consecutive order. If a figure has been published, acknowledge the original source and submit written permission from the copyright holder to reproduce the material. Permission is required, regardless of authorship or publisher, except for documents in the public domain. Articles appear in both the print and online versions of the journal, and wording of the letter should specify permission in all forms and media. Failure to get electronic permission rights may result in the images not appearing in the online version.
For illustrations in color, supply color negatives or positive transparencies and, when necessary, accompanying drawings marked to indicate the region to be reproduced; in addition, send 2 positive color prints to assist editor in making recommendations. The acceptance of color illustrations is at the discretion of the editor.
Electronic illustration submission
Figures may be submitted in electronic format. All images should be at least 5 in wide. Images should be provided in EPS or TIF format on Zip disk, CD, floppy, Jaz, or 3.5 MO. Macintosh or PC is acceptable. Graphics software such as Photoshop and Illustrator, not presentation software such as PowerPoint, CorelDraw, or Harvard Graphics, should be used in the creation of the art. Color images need to be CMYK, at least 300 DPI, with a digital color proof, not a color laser print or color photocopy. Note: This proof will be used at press for color reproduction. Gray scale images should be at least 300 DPI and accompanied by a proof. Combinations of gray scale and line art should be at least 1200 DPI with a proof. Line art (black and white or color) should be at least 1200 DPI with a proof. Please include hardware and software information, in addition to the file names, with the disk.
Letters to the editor
In keeping with standard bioscientific practice of providing an open forum for its readers to participate in the improvement of related knowledge, the JMPT welcomes Letters to the Editor that seek to add to or clarify the information contained in a recently published article.
Letters should be prepared in standard manuscript form (typed double-spaced, with wide margins, on one side of plain 8?by 11 in white bond paper) with the title of the article being referred to at the top of the first page and the name and address of the writer at the end. The original and one clear photocopy should be submitted directly to the editor, along with a cover letter (on the writer's letterhead), signed by the writer, which specifies that the accompanying letter is being submitted for consideration to publish. No unsigned letters are accepted for publication. All letters are subject to possible editing and abridgement.
If a letter is accepted for publication, a copy will be sent to the author of the article in question who will have an opportunity to provide a rebuttal and new information that will be considered for publication along with the letter.
Direct communication between the writer of a letter and the author of an article should be avoided, because in the interest of scientific objectivity differences of opinion are best handled by a third party梩he editor梬ho can serve as an arbitrator in a dispute, thus avoiding unnecessary irritations to either party. Also, if deficiencies exist in an article published in the JMPT, all readers (and the scientific community in general) have a right to be informed of this fact.
JMPT E-PAPERS
Starting with the January 2002 issue, JMPT initiated a new electronic paper section in the journal. Electronic papers have their abstract published in the print version of the journal, while the full-text version of the paper is included on the JMPT web site (www.mosby.com/jmpt). While the editor will attempt to honor requests to publish or not publish a paper as an E-paper, the editor reserves the right to make a final decision as to whether a given paper will be published as an E-paper. It is important to note that electronic publication includes all the same rights and privileges as print publication, including inclusion in indexing agency databases.
