AUTHORS

Please read the following information before proceeding:

Please be sure to consult the Notes for Contributors, and the Journal Statement on our publishing policy, before submitting your paper.
The Notes for Contributors are regularly reviewed and updated; it is therefore important to consult them each time you visit this site or submit a new or revised paper.

Remember the following:

· Please note that it is acceptable to submit a Word file containing figures for initial submissions. (For papers which proceed beyond the initial review stage, authors will be required to submit all figures as individual image files.)

· Take care to ensure that labels and legends in figures and tables are checked for accuracy and spelling: correction work may delay the processing of your paper.

Instructions and assistance:

1. Instructions for Authors: Essential guidelines for preparing manuscripts prior to submission.

2. Tutorial for Authors: Detailed instructions regarding the electronic submission process.

Permission to publish patient photographs:

· If photographs of patients are used as figures in a paper, then a Permission to Publish form must be completed by each patient (and parent if appropriate) identified by a photograph, and the form sent to the Editorial Office with the printed copy of the paper and the submission letter. Please click here for a copy of the Permission to Publish form.
