Autorstvo

Svaki od navedenih autora rada treba da ima značajnu ulogu u cjelokupnom kreiranju rukopisa ili izvršenju opisanog procesa rada (Izjava o autorstvu). Osobe koje su obezbijedile samo  pomoć u obezbijeđivanju materijala za rad, sojeve, reagencije, ili koje su kritizirale rad, ne treba da se uključuju u listu autora, nego da se spomenu u sekciji Zahvale.

Autor kojega su ostali autori imenovali za korespondenciju, djeluje u ime ostalih u procesu vezanom za publikaciju rada.

Odobrenja

Autor zadužen za korespondenciju je odgovoran za stjecanje prava od originalnog autora i izdavača za reprodukciju ili modifikaciju dijagrama ili tabela i reprodukciju teksta (cijeloga ili djelomično) iz prethodnih publikacija.

Originalno odobrenje sa potpisom mora se poslati direktno uredniku, i treba da precizno označava ono na što se odnosi (npr., ” odobrenje za  Sliku 1 u SEEHSJ-02-08/04). Potrebno je također napisati u legendi tabele ili dijagrama ako je materijal objavljen ponovno, uz odobrenje.

Etički principi

Bilo koja vrsta eksperimentalnih istraživanja koja se opisuje u rukopisu moraju imati odobrenje odgovarajućeg etičkog komiteta, a što je potrebno naglasiti u sekciji Materijal i metode. Istraživanja u kojima se rade  eksperimenti na ljudima ili životinjama moraju biti u skladu s Helsinškom Deklaracijom, odnosno s međunarodno prihvaćenim uputama. Izjava o primjeni ovih principa treba da sadrži dozvolu potvrđenu od odgovarajućih  federalnih vladinih ili individualnih institucija i da se navede u sekciji Materijal i metode, kao i Suglasnost informiranog pacijenta. Članovi redakcionog odbora neće prihvatiti rukopise za koje se sumnja da nisu sprovedena u skladu s gore navedenim proncipima.

Da bi se zaštitila privatnost pacijenata pomenutih u kliničkim istraživanjima, u prikazu slučaja, nije potrebno iznositi njihova imena niti inicijale. Nije potrebno navoditi niti broj bolničke jedinice (sobe). Rukopisi u kojima je uključena fotografija bolesnika moraju biti popraćeni pismenim odobrenjem bolesnika, koje je potrebno poslati u redakciju časopisa, poštom ili faksom. U sekciji Zahvale potrebno u tom slučaju napisati: ”Dobijeno je pismeno odobrenje od bolesnika (ili njegovih rođaka) za objavu slika”.

Oprema rukopisa

Radovi trebaju biti napisani isključivo na engleskom jeziku (UK spelling).

Rad mora biti tipkan dvostrukim proredom, tako da na jednoj stranici bude najviše 30 redaka; s obe strane valja ostaviti bijeli rub širok 2,5 cm. Način pisanja treba da je jezgrovit, nije potrebno ponavljati isti tekst u nekoliko sekcija; sadržaj tabela i dijagrama nije potrebno opširno opisivati u tekstu. Kada je potrebno,  koriste se SI jedinice. Latinski nazivi se pišu italic pismom, i to puni naziv kod prvog citiranja. U daljnjem tekstu se za latinske nazive koristi navedena skraćenica. Koriste se samo generički nazivi lijekova, iako se i naziv proizvođača može navesti u zagradi, ukoliko je neophodno. Proizvođači specifičnih instrumenata  ili reagencija (naziv  i lokacija) treba da se navedu u zagradi.

Radovi trebaju imati sljedeći sadržaj: Naslovna strana (posebna stranica), Abstract (posebna stranica), Sažetak  (posebna stranica) (na bosanskom/hrvatskom/srpskom jeziku, samo za autore čiji je maternji jezik jedan od ovih jezika), Tekst rada, Zahvale/Izjave, Reference, popis tablica i slika, tablice i dijagrami.

Naslovna strana

Svaka prijava rada u svakoj kategoriji članka, treba da ima naslovnu stranicu koja treba da sadrži  predloženu kategorizaciju članka, naslov članka, imena i prezimena autora, tačan naziv ustanove ili ustanova kojima autori pripadaju. Potrebno je također da autori sugeriraju skraćeni naslov članka(running title) do 40 slova, koji  će se kao tekući naslov štampati na stranicama na kojima je rad objavljen. Na dnu stranice treba napisati adresu, telefon, fax, te e-mail adresu autora  kojemu se Urednički odbor može kasnije obraćati, a koja se može objaviti u članku radi traženja posebnih otisaka.

Abstract (Sažetak)

Druga stranica treba da sadrži Abstract rada na engleskom jeziku koji ne smije biti duži od 250 riječi i 3-5 ključnih riječi. Kod odabira ključnih riječi autor treba da koristi Medical Subject Headings (MeSH)  iz Index Medicus. Sažetak ne smije biti opisan, već mora sadržavati sve bitne činjenice iznesene u radu. Strukturiran Abstract samo za Originalni članak: Aim (kratak i precizan prikaz cilja i svrhe rada), Methods, Results (one najvažnije, sa specifičnim, po mogućnosti, brojčanim podacima), Conclusion (osnovni).

Treća stranica treba da sadrži Sažetak na bosanskom/hrvatskom/srpskom jeziku (samo za autore čiji je maternji jezik jedan od ovih jezika), kao i naslov članka na jednom od ovih jezika: Cilj, Metode, Rezultati, Zaključak.

Tekst rukopisa

Uvod je kratak i jasan prikaz suštine problema i svrhe istraživanja. Kratko se spominju radovi koji su u izravnoj vezi s problemom što ga prikazuje članak. Na kraju Uvoda dati kratak opis cilja istraživanja.

Materijal/Pacijenti i metode koje su u radu primijenjene prikazuju se kratko, ali dovoljno da se čitaocu omogući ponavljanje opisanog istraživanja. Metode poznate iz literature ne opisuju se, nego se navodi izvorni literaturni podatak. Lijekovi se navode generičkim imenom. Umjesto nabrajanja kompjuterskih programa koji su korišteni za statističku analizu, nabrojte samo statističke testove koji su korišteni kod obrade podataka. Tabele ne treba da sadržavaju rezultate statističke obrade. Statistika je samo pomoćno sredstvo a ne cilj rada, i služi za bolju interpretaciju dobijenih rezultata.

Rezultate treba jasno i precizno prikazati. Značajnost rezultata potrebno je statistički obraditi, a statističku signifikantnost prikazati skupa sa podacima u tekstu, tabelama ili grafikonima. Treba se služiti SI jedinicama.

Diskusija  Svrha diskusije, rasprave, jest interpretacija rezultata i njihova usporedba s postojećim značajnijim spoznajama na tom području iz čega mogu proizaći jasni zaključci. Vaše rezultate nemojte ponavljati, diskutirajte ih!

Tablice, dijagrami i slike

Rad treba popratiti razumnim brojem slika i tablica; treba priložiti samo reprezentativne ilustracije koje dokumentiraju rad. Podatke koji su prikazani u tablicama i dijagramima nije potrebno ponavljati u tekstu.

Svaka tabela (dijagram, slika) se prikazuje na posebnoj stranici u što je moguće manjem formatu, i treba da sadrži: a) naslov, koji treba da je opisan, b) odgovarajući broj (koriste se arapski brojevi) onim redom kako se pojavljuju u tekstu, c) sva potrebna objašnjenja simbola i skraćenica.

Dijagrami

Originalnu verziju dijagrama (MS Excell files) treba sačuvati, u slučaju potrebe u procesu publikacije.

Tablice

Tablice se pripremaju u  MS Word (Table). Svakasetabelapišenaposebnoj stranici, aneutekstu, moraimatisvojrednibrojkojijepovezujestekstom, naslov i ime prvog autora. Utablicamavaljaizbjegavatiokomitenaslovestupaca. Umjestonjihmoguseupotrijebitirimskebrojkeilivelikaslova  kojimaseoznačavasvakipojedinistupac, aobjašnjavajuselegendamanadnutablice. Dopušteno je korištenje kratica, ali one moraju biti objašnjene u dnu tablice.

Ilustracije-slike

Fotografije se prilažu elektronski, uz naznaku njezinog broja i imena autora. Bolesnicima na slikama oči valja prekriti crnom trakom da se ne mogu identificirati.

Skraćenice

Skraćenice treba svesti na minimum. Pisanje u žargonu nije dozvoljeno. Skraćenice SI jediničnog sistema mjera se koriste kada kod je to potrebno. Druge skraćenice se koriste ako su pomenute više od tri puta u tekstu, i piše se njihov puni naziv kada se pominju prvi put. Ovo se primjenjuje odvojeno na Abstract i na ostatak teksta.

Acknowledgement (Zahvale)

Rezultati objavljeni ranije na naučnim skupovima ili u drugom javnom kontekstu, moraju da se navedu uz tačne podatke o naslovu, mjestu i datumu prezentacije.

Osobe kojima se zahvaljuje moraju biti imenovane punim imenom i prezimenom.

Abstract

The second page should contain the Abstract, no more than 250 words, with 3-5 key words. In selecting key words the author should strictly refer to the medical Subject Headings (MeSH) list of the Index Medicus. It should not be descriptive, but should contain only important facts rised from the manuscript. Structured Abstract only for Original article: Aim of the study, Methods, Results (main, with numbered data), Conslusion (basic).

Main text

Introduction represents a short description of the problem described in the manuscript and purpose of the study. There is need to mention only the references in direct relationship with problem presented in the manuscript. Continue logically, and finish the section with a short description of the aim of the study.

Material/Patients and Methods should present concisely and sistematically list of basic procedures, selection of study subjects or laboratory animals, methods of observations and analysis. Avoid listing common or irrelevant methids (use reference instead). The essential data on patient characteristics belong here, not in the result section.

Results section should represents a list your basic results without any introduction. Only essential statistical significances should be added in brackets. Draw no conclusions as yet: they belong into the next section.

Discussion includes interpretation of study findings, and results considered in the context of results in other trials reported in the literature. Conclusions should stated in a short, clear and simple manner, only that stem directly from the results shown in the paper. Rather than sumarizing the data, conclude from them.

Tables, figures and illustrations

Illustrations should be kept to a minimum. Data reprted in tables or figures should not be repeated in the text.

Each table (figure, illustration) should be presented on a separate page in the smaller format possible and contain: a) descriptive or explanatory title; b) respective number (using arabic, not roman numerals) consecutively as cited in the text; c) all the necessary explanations of symbols and abbreviations

Wherever possible tables should be typed as text using ‘tabs’ to align columns. The use of tables editors should be avoided, as should graphics software to create tables. Please do not use paragraph returns within tables to indicate spacing within blocks of text; use instead a soft return (shift return). Abbreviations may be used, but must be explained in full as footnotes. Units of measurement must be clearly indicated.

Hard copy ofall  figures (MS Excell files) must be prepared and retained by authors in case it is needed during the publication process.

Illustrations must be delivered in high-quality electronic format, labeled with the number and author name. To protect privacy of individuals, the eyes must be covered with black colour on the patient’s picures.

Abbreviations

Abbreviations and jargon are discuraged, but SI units should be abbreviated troughout. Other abbreviations should be used anly if mentioned three or more times in the text, and should always be writen in full on first mention. This applies separately to the Abstract and the rest of the text.

Acknowledgement

All results presented previously at a scientific meeting or in another public context must be acknowledged, giving the context, location and date of presentation.

Acknowledged individuals must be named in full.
