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 duplicate 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; typewritten 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 will consider publishing a limited number of color figures that enhance an article. The journal抯 editor will let the author know whether the journal will cover the cost of color reproduction if an author chooses to submit color art with a manuscript
Digital figures: Electronic art should be created/scanned and saved and submitted as either a TIFF (tagged image file format), an EPS (encapsulated postscript) file, or a PPT (Power Point) file. Line art must have a resolution of at least 1200 dpi (dots per inch), and electronic photographs 梤adiographs, CT scans, and so on梐nd scanned images must have a resolution of at least 300 dpi. If fonts are used in the artwork, they must be converted to paths or outlines or they must be embedded in the files. Color images must be created/scanned and saved and submitted as CMYK files. All electronic art must be accompanied by high-resolution laser prints of the images. Files can be submitted on a 31.2-inch high-density disk, a CD-ROM, or an Iomega Zip disk. Please note that artwork generated from office suite programs such as Corel Draw and MS Word and artwork downloaded from the Internet (JPEG or GIFF files) cannot be used
Tables: Create tables using the table creating and editing feature of your word processing software (eg, Word, WordPerfect). Do not use Excel or comparable spreadsheet programs. Group all tables at the end of the manuscript, or supply them together in a separate file. 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
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 performed 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
Investigations on experimental animals must include a statement indicating that the investigators followed guidelines, either from the institution or from the National Research Council, for the care and use of laboratory animals
Copyright: All authors must sign a copy of the Journal抯 揂uthorship Responsibility, Financial Disclosure, and Copyright Transfer?form
Send the signed form to Dr. Donlin M. Long, Department of Neurological Surgery, The Johns Hopkins Hospital, 600 North Wolfe Street, Baltimore, MD 21205; telephone (410) 955-2252; telefax (410) 955- 6407
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
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
Metric abbreviations should be expressed in lower case without periods and with no distinction between singular and plural. SI units are required, but alternate units may be added in parentheses
In mathematical copy, be precise about alignment of numerals, letters, and symbols; hand-letter any that cannot be typewritten. Make a circled notation in the nearest margin to identify any possibly ambiguous character such as 1 (one or el), 0 (zero or oh), X (multiplication sign or ex), Greek letters, script letters, diacritical marks, and prime, and certain letters (eg, C, K, P) in which capitals and lower case are nearly indistinguishable when handwritten. Use the simplest form of equation that can be made by ordinary mathematical calculation
After Acceptance 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 via 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. Changes that have been made to conform to journal style will stand if they do not alter the authors?meaning. Only the most critical changes to the accuracy of the content will be made. Changes that are stylistic or are a reworking of previously accepted material will be disallowed. The publisher reserves the right to deny any changes that do not affect the accuracy of the content.
