General Manuscript Format
All manuscripts must be submitted in English. Manuscripts must be typed single-sided, double-spaced, on 8-1/2 by 11 inch white, bond paper with a 4 cm (1.5") left margin.
Pages should be numbered consecutively in the upper right-hand corner beginning with the title page, followed in order by Introductions, Methods, Results, Discussion, and Conclusion.
The first author's last name should appear in the upper right hand corner of each page. Manuscripts should be approximately 1,000 to 4,000 words (about 4-16 pages of text), dependent upon the type of report.
The original manuscript and two high quality photocopies as well as four sets of black and white glossy prints of illustrations, figures, or photographs are required at submission.
Final, revised manuscripts should be submitted on a 3-1/2 inch floppy diskette, along with two hard copies.
Title Page
The title page should include in order (1) the title; (2) the running title, a short version of the title (40 characters or less); (3) author's names as they wish them to appear with the first name/initial, middle name/initial, and last name of each author, in that order, followed by each author's highest academic degree(s); (4) institutional affiliation, city, state, and country (when other than United States) in which the study was carried out; (5) source(s) of financial support; (6) disclaimers (when needed); (7) name, address, business and home telephone numbers, fax number, and email address, when available, of the corresponding author; (8) name and address of author to whom reprints should be sent (when different from the corresponding author).
Abstract Page with Key Words/Phrases
On page three of the manuscript, the title, author(s) names, and a structured abstract should appear. Beneath the abstract 3 to 5 key words or short phrases should be listed for indexing purposes.
A structured abstract of 150 words or less should accompany full length articles. The structured abstract should contain four paragraphs with the following headlines: (1) Objectives, stating the hypothesis of the study; (2) Materials and Methods, including the means for problem solving, the subjects (number and relevant characteristics), the intervention studied, and briefly, the statistical analysis; (3) Results, including the outcome of the study and statistical significance; and (4) Conclusions, stating the outcome importance. Abstracts are not necessary for editorials, com-mentaries, correspondence, opinion pieces, book reviews, or abstracts for meetings. Key Words
Key words should appear immediately beneath the abstract and consist of 3 to 5 words or terms used for indexing. It is recommended to use the terms from the medical subject headings of Index Medicus.
Text
Manuscripts should be written in the active voice. Ideas should be expressed briefly, clearly, and concisely. Use only standard abbreviations. Spell out all abbreviations in full preceding their first usage in the text. Reports claiming to be a "first of a kind" must be verified as such with the source(s) of the literature searched and the years included in the search. Direct quotation should be enclosed with quotation marks and attributed in full to the author and source, including the exact page numbers.
Closely paraphrased material should be referenced within the text, so as to leave no doubt as to the source of the original information.
For drugs, devices, or patented procedures, the generic or common name should be followed in parentheses by the trade name, city and country of manufacture.
Randomized controlled trials should specifically state the method for randomization. When human and nonhuman investigation/experimentation has taken place, manuscripts must state that the appropriate institutional review body has granted approval before the study began. Reports on nonhu-man subjects must state that institutional approval of the project was obtained before the study began and the institu-tional guidelines for the case of these subjects were followed.
The type of nonhuman subjects must be stated in the title, abstract, key words, and material and methods section of the report. Statistical analysis should specify the tests used and to which portions of the data they were applied, rather than simply listed. If a statistical computer program was used, the program should be identified.
References
References cited in the manuscript should be listed as a separate section immediately following the text. Authors must verify all references. Citation style must conform to the guidelines set by the American Medical Association Manual of Style, 8th ed. Williams and Wilkins, 1989 and journal abbreviations should be those recognized by Index Medicus.
Number references sequentially in the order cited in the text. References cited only in a figure or table are numbered according to their first mention in the text. Do not use personal communications or materials "submitted" or "in preparation" as references. Materials accepted for publication, but not yet published, may be cited followed by "(in press)."
References with seven or more authors should list only the first six followed by "et al." Journal references should appear in the following order-author(s), title, journal abbreviation, year, volume number (in Arabic numerals), and inclusive pages. Book references are listed by author(s), title, edition (when other than first), volume (when more than one), city, publisher, and year. A chapter in a book should be listed by author(s) of the chapter, title of the chapter, "In:", editor(s)/authors of the book, title of the book, edition (when other than first), volume (when more than one), city, publisher, year, and inclusive pages of the chapter.
Tables
Up to five tables will be printed without charge to the author(s). Tables should be labeled consecutively, using Arabic numerals, and follow the references. The table number should be followed by the table's title. A table exceeding one page should be headed with the table number followed by "continued" in parentheses, and the table heading. Tables containing special symbols or artwork should be submitted as camera-ready copy.
Illustrations
All illustrations should be numbered sequen-tially with Arabic numerals, in the order cited in the text. A label should be affixed to the back of each illustration. It should indicate the top of the figure, figure number, and the name of the first author. On a separate page, legends should be labeled by figure number and briefly describe the illustration.
Color Illustrations
Color illustrations may be printed at the author's expense.
Line Drawings
Line drawings may be submitted when of professional quality, as laser printer output, or as camera-ready copy.
Photographic Prints
Black-and-white, glossy photographic prints of good quality may be submitted. Patient identity must be protected or written permission from the patient must accompany the print. Letters, arrows, and markings on the prints must be of professional quality.
Figures
Figures reproduced from another publication require accompanying written permissions from the author(s) of the work and the holder of the copyright to the work. Credits detailing the authorship and source of the materials must be included in the legend.
Proofs
Page proofs of the article as typeset from the copy-edited manuscript and illustration proofs will be forwarded by the publisher to the corresponding author. The corresponding author should return all proofs within 48 hours, limiting corrections to typographical errors or corrections in the presentation of information. Correspondence regarding proofs should be sent directly to the publisher.
Reprints
An order form for reprints will be sent to the corresponding author along with the page proofs. The publisher will furnish the ordered reprints.
Copying
Authorization to photocopy material for the Journal for any purpose must be granted by the International Neuromodulation Society and Blackwell Science, Inc.
Copyright Statement
Copyright on all published articles is held by the International Neuromodulation Society. A copyright transfer agreement signed by all authors must be submitted with final revised manuscript and disk.
