Preparing Manuscripts

Manuscripts should be prepared in accordance with theUniform Requirements for Manuscripts Submitted to Biomedical Journals.[2]A summary of technical requirements for preparing the manuscript is provided below:

• Double-space throughout the maintext including abstract,text,acknowledgements,references,figure legends.Start each of these sections (in same order) on a new page,numbered consecutively in the upper right hand corner.

• Use at least 11 point font size (Times New Roman or Arial).

• Conventional units are preferred with SI units in parenthesis,if available.The metric system is preferred for the expression of length,area,mass and volume.

• Use nonproprietary names of drugs,devices and other products.

• Tables,figures or crafts should be prepared and submitted in separate files.

Manuscripts not fulfilling the technical requirements shall be returned to the authors without initiating the peer-review process.

Title page

The page should contain (i) the title of the article: which should be concise but informative (simpler the title the better;preferably it should contain all the key words to help electronic retrieval reliably);(ii) a short running title of less than 40 characters;(iii)initials and surname of each author with the highest academic degree(s) and designation at the time when the work was done;(iv) name,address,telephone,fax,email address of the corresponding author;(v) funding source;(vi) ethical appproval;(vii) conflict of interest for all authors.If none,say "No financial or non-financial benefits have been received or will be received from any party related directly or indirectly to the subject of this article.";and (viii) contributors' statement.

Authorship

All persons designated as authors should qualify for the authorship.Authorship credit should be based on substantial contributions to (i) concept and design,or acquisition of data,or analysis and interpretation of data;(ii) drafting the article or revising it critically for important intellectual content;and (iii) final approval of the version to be published.Conditions 1,2 and 3 must all be met.Participation solely in the acquisition of funding or the collection of data does not justify authorship.All such people who contributed to the work but do not satisfy all the conditions should be listed in the acknowledgements.Authors are responsible for obtaining written permissions from everyone acknowledged by name.One of the authors shall act as guarantor of the paper and he/she should take the responsibility for the integrity of the work as a whole,from its inception to published article.Authors should provide a description of what each author contributed on the title page.Subsequently,no names can be added or deleted without written permission of the editor.Written consent of authors whose names are being deleted should be obtained.This journal reserves the right to satisfy itself regarding the specific role of each listed author to justify authorship.All authors must give signed consent to publication (please download from WJP website).

Large Language Models (LLMs),such as ChatGPT,do not currently satisfy the authorship criteria ofWorld Journal of Pediatrics.The use of an LLM should be properly documented in theMethodssection (and acknowledgements,if appropriate)of the manuscript.If aMethodssection is not available,the Introduction section (or another appropriate section) can be used to document the use of the LLM.

Conflict of interest

Conflict of interest for a given manuscript exists when the author has ties to activities that could inappropriately influence his or her judgment,whether or not judgment is in fact affected.Financial relationships with industry—for example,through employment,consultancies,stock ownership,honoraria,expert testimony,either directly or through immediate family,are usually considered to be the most important conflict of interests.However,conflicts can occur for other reasons,such as personal relationships,academic competition and intellectual passion.If any of the authors have accepted reimbursement for attending symposium,a fee for speaking,fee for organizing educational activities,funds for research,funds for a member of the staffor consultation fees from an organization that may in any way gain or lose financially from the results of the study,review,editorial or letter,a conflict of interest would be deemed to exist.If any of the authors had been employed by an organization that may in any way gain or lose financially from the publication,or if any of them hold stocks or shares in such an organization,conflict of interest would be deemed to exist.The manuscript must be accompanied by the ICMJE Form for Disclosure of Potential Conflicts of Interest.

Abstract and key words

The second page should carry an abstract in case of original article (250 words or fewer),review article (250 words or fewer),brief report (100-150 words),respectively.For original article and reviews,the abstract should be structured as detailed earlier.For brief reports,the abstract should state the purpose of the study,basic methodology,main findings (giving specific data and statistical significance) and key conclusion(s).Below the abstract,authors should provide 3-5 key words for indexing;terms from the Medical Subject Headings (MESH)list ofIndex Medicusshould be used.

The basic structure of a paper follows the well known acronym IMRAD,which stands for Introduction (what questions was asked),Methods (how was it studied),Results(what was found) and Discussion.[2]

Introduction

The introduction must clearly state the question that the author(s) tried to answer in the study.It may be necessary to briefly review the relevant literature.Only cite those references that are essential to justify the proposed study.

Methodology

The methods section should describe,in a logical sequence,how the study was designed (e.g.,how randomization was done),carried out (e.g.,how subjects were chosen or excluded,ethical considerations,accurate details of materials used,exact drug dosage and form of treatment,etc.) and data were analyzed (e.g.,an estimate of the power of the study,exact test used for statistical analysis,etc.).For standard methods,appropriate references are sufficient,but if standard methods are modified these should be clearly brought out.Authors should provide complete details of any new methods or apparatus used (manufacturer's name and address in parentheses).

Ethics:When reporting experiments on human subjects,authors should indicate whether the procedures followed were in accordance with the ethical standards of the responsible committee on human experimentation (institutional or regional)and with the Helsinki Declaration of 1964,as revised in 2000.[3]They should indicate whether the study was approved by the Institutions' Ethical Committee;and informed consent was obtained for all research individuals.

For all research involving human subjects,informed consent to participate in the study should be obtained from participants (or their parent or legal guardian in the case of children under 16) and a statement to this effect should appear in the manuscript.For manuscript reporting studies involving vulnerable groups (for example unconscious patients) where there is the potential for coercion (for example prisoners) or where consent may not have been fully informed,manuscripts will be considered at the editors discretion.In the case of articles describing human transplantation studies,authors must include a statement declaring that no organs/tissues were obtained from prisoners and must also name the institution(s)/clinic(s)/department(s) via which organs/tissues were obtained.

For reporting the details of individual cases,authors should submit patient’s written consent to publication for evaluation by editors.They should not use patients' names,initials,or hospital numbers,especially in illustrative material.This journal reserves the right to reject a manuscript on ethical grounds,on the basis of recommendations of its "Ethical Committee",even if the research has been cleared by the institutional ethical committee.Moreover,when reporting experiments on animals,authors should indicate whether the institutional and national guide for the care and use of laboratory animals was followed.

Statistics:Authors should describe statistical methods with enough detail to enable a knowledgeable reader with access to the original data to verify the reported results.When possible,they meet to quantify findings and present them with appropriate indicators of measurement error or uncertainty (such as confidence intervals).ActualPvalues are provided rather than stating as just <0.05 or >0.05 etc.References for the design of the study and statistical methods should be to standard works when possible (with pages stated) rather than to papers in which the designs or methods were originally reported.Any generaluse computer programs used should be specified and statistical terms,abbreviations,and most symbols be defined.

Results

This section should include only relevant,representative data and not all information collected during the study.Major findings should be presented clearly and concisely.Text,tables,and illustrations should be used sensibly while avoiding repeating in the text all the data depicted in the tables or illustrations and emphasizing or summarizing only important observations.Tables and figures should be restricted to those needed to explain the argument of the paper and to assess its support.It is necessary to cite the tables in the text and type them on separate sheets.It may also be useful to mention what the study did not find.

Discussion

Discussion ordinarily should not be more than one third of the total length of the manuscript.This section should include a summary of the major findings,their relationship to other similar studies,limitations of methods and implications of these findings in future research.Conclusionsshould be linked to the goals of the study.Unqualified statements and conclusions which are not completely supported by the data should be avoided.Authors should also refrain from making statements on economic benefits and costs unless their manuscript includes economic data and analyses.

Acknowledgements

In acknowledgements section,it is suitable to list all contributors who do not meet the criteria for authorship,such as a person who provided purely technical help,writing assistance,or a department head who provided only general support.Groups of persons who have contributed materially to the paper but whose contributions do not justify authorship may be listed under a heading such as"clinical investigators" or "participating investigators",and their function or contribution should be described,for example,"served as scientific advisers","critically reviewed the study proposal","collected data",or "provided and cared for study patients".A written consent is required from all the persons acknowledged,indicating their acceptance for the same.Acknowledgements section should be placed after the manuscript's Discussion orConclusionsection and before the References section.

References should be numbered consecutively in the order in which they are first mentioned in the text.References are identified in text,tables,and legends by Arabic numerals in parentheses.References cited only in tables or in legends to figures should be numbered in accordance with the sequence established by the first identification in the text of the particular table or figure.

The titles of journals should be abbreviated according to the style used inIndex Medicus.Authors are required not to use abstracts,unpublished observations and personal communications as references.References to papers accepted but not yet published should be designated as "in press";authors should obtain written permission to cite such papers as well as verification that they have been accepted for publication.

The references must be verified by the author against the original documents.The Springer Vancouver style is our journal's Uniform Requirements style.
