Profile of the journal
Arhiv za higijenu rada i toksikologiju-Archives of Industrial Hygiene and Toxicology (abbr. Arh Hig Rada Toksikol) is a peer-reviewed biomedical scientific quarterly that publishes contributions relevant to all aspects of environmental and occupational health and toxicology. The journal is indexed in SCI Expanded, Medline/PubMed, Scopus, AGRICOLA, AGRIS, Animal Science Database, Biological Sciences (CSA), BIOSIS Previews, CAB Abstracts, EBSCO Academic Research Complete, Ergonomics Abstracts, FSTA, Global Health, GreenFile, INIS, Pollution Abstracts, ProQuest, TEMA, TOXLINE, Veterinary Science Database, and Water Resources Abstracts.
Full-text articles are available online at De Gruyter Open (http://www.degruyter.com/view/j/aiht) and the Portal of Scientific Journals of Croatia – HRČAK at http://hrcak.srce.hr/aiht.
The journal publishes original (research) articles, reviews, mini-reviews, case reports, viewpoints, and letters to the editor. Original (research) articles and reviews of international relevance should be written in English, whereas other articles may be in either Croatian or English. Announcements, book reviews, meeting reports, and obituaries are also accepted, and may be written in Croatian, English or Slovene.
Original articles are expected to report on topics related to toxicology and environmental and occupational health. Clinical research and related issues are strongly discouraged. Review articles represent summaries of recent insights in specific research areas within the scope of the journal. They should provide systematic, critical, and extensive coverage of a subject. Mini-reviews should provide a brief summary of recent developments in fast-growing research fields. They may address any subject within the scope of the journal or report the state of the art in a specified research area. Case reports should also focus exclusively on issues related to the journal and always be accompanied by a signed consent of the patient whose case is presented or his/her legal representative. Every effort must be made to protect the anonimity of patients; any information that could violate privacy should be excluded, unless it is necessary for the scientific presentation. Viewpoints should address and discuss various important issues in toxicology and occupational health. They should be well focused, clearly presented, and provide the author’s opinion(s) regarding the subject. Letters to the Editor should fall within one of the following two types: “Letter about material previously published in the Archives” or “Letter that discusses problems of general interest”. Letters in reference to a journal article must be received within two months after publication of the article. The author of a paper in question is usually given an opportunity to reply.
Preparation of manuscripts
Manuscripts are accepted on the understanding that they are contributed to this journal alone.
Detailed instructions about how to prepare a manuscript are given in the Uniform Requirements for Manuscripts Submitted to Biomedical Journals: Writing and Editing for Biomedical Publication issued by the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (http://www.icmje.org).
All manuscripts should be arranged in the following order: title page, text, references, and figures with their corresponding legends and tables.
The text of the manuscript should be typed with margins wide enough for annotations, and pages should be numbered. The paragraph line space should be 1.5 with normal margins. While processing the text, authors should avoid unnecessary formatting such as auto-numbering (of references, numbers of chapters, etc.), bullets, tabs, and indent. Please insert line numbers to facilitate the peer review. The preferred font is Times New Roman (size: 12 dots). Please use British English spelling.
Original (research) papers should follow the conventional IMRAD structure: introduction, methods, results, and discussion. The Abstract should be a single paragraph and limited to 250 words. It should state the aim of the study, basic procedures (study subjects/animals, and methods), main findings, and principal conclusions.
Below the abstract provide a list of 5 key terms that will be useful for indexing or searching. They should not be taken from the title of the manuscript but rather reflect the content of the entire article and the field of study. Use terms from the Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) list of the Index Medicus (www.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/), whenever possible. Key words should be listed in alphabetical order and separated by semicolons.
