2. drafting the work or revising it critically for important intellectual content; and

Ethics
Research, Publication, and Good Practice. All authors are expected to adhere to accepted standards and guidelines for ethical reporting in their submissions to Annals and are referred to the Research ethics, publication ethics and good practice guidelines resource provided by the Equator Network.
A list of best practices and codes of conduct regarding publishing ethics is also provided by Springer.
Experimental Subjects
All authors are expected to abide by accepted ethical standards. In investigations that involve human subjects or laboratory animals, authors should provide an explicit statement in the ‘‘Materials and Methods’’ section that the experimental protocols were approved by the appropriate institutional review committee and meet the guidelines of their responsible governmental agency. In the case of human subjects, informed consent is essential.
New as of January 2021.
Race/Ethnicity Data. Authors who submit studies involving human subjects must report the race/ethnicity distribution of all study participants. These data are typically included in the table presenting a description of study participants. If these data are not provided, authors are required to provide (within the manuscript) an explanation of why this information was not included or is not available.
Originality
All manuscripts submitted to Annals must be original; i.e., not published elsewhere (except in abstract form) and not under consideration for publication elsewhere. Annals accepts manuscripts prepared according to the ICJME ‘‘Recommendations for the Conduct, Reporting, Editing, and Publication of Scholarly work in Medical Journals’’ (updated December 2018).
Peer Review
All manuscripts submitted to Annals are subject to peer review. The decision of the Editor-in-Chief and Executive Editor is final. Authors are notified of the decision with reviewer comments if applicable.
ORIGINAL ARTICLE MANUSCRIPT PREPARATION
Original articles must adhere to a 3,500-word limit (not including the title page, abstract, and references) and cannot contain more than 7 figures and tables combined. The manuscript should conform to the following order: title page, synopsis, abstract, text of manuscript, acknowledgements, references, figure legends, and tables.

Adherence to Study Type Guidelines
Articles of the study types listed in the Equator for Health Research Reporting website should be submitted with a completed study guideline checklist for the respective article type. Study types requiring submission with a completed checklist include but are not limited to:
Randomized Trials. These must adhere to the CONSORT guidelines and provide both a CONSORT checklist and flow diagram.
Systematic Reviews, including Meta-Analyses. These must adhere to the PRISM checklist.
Authors should refer to the Equator for Health Research Reporting website for these checklists and those for other study types that may be submitted to the journal. All types listed on this site will require a completed respective checklist to be uploaded and submitted with the manuscript files.
Compliance with this requirement thus involves these two steps:
• UPLOAD AND SUBMIT the completed checklist and flow diagram as/if appropriate with the manuscript files in Step 2, FILE UPLOAD, when submitting via https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/aso
• PROVIDE text page locations for each question, as appropriate and indicated per manuscript types listed in the Equator for Health Research Reporting website If these steps are not completed as part of the submission process for appropriate manuscripts, the paper will be considered an incomplete submission and returned to authors for completion.
Cover Letter. A cover letter must be included with each manuscript submission. The cover letter should explain why the manuscript content is significant and fits within the scope of the journal. An affirmative statement should be included that confirms that neither the manuscript nor any part of its content is currently under consideration or published in another journal. The cover letter should be concise.
NOTE. The submitting and corresponding authors’ contact information and Twitter handles if available should be provided in the article’s cover letter.
Title page. The title page should include:
• full names, degrees and affiliations for all authors
• full mailing and e-mail address of the author to whom correspondence and proofs should be sent
• title and subtitle of the paper
• shortened version of the title for the running head (no more than 45 characters, including spaces)
• disclosure of any commercial interest that any author may have in the subject of study and the source of any financial or material support
Synopsis. Authors must provide a brief 1-3 sentence explanation, not to exceed 40 words, of their manuscripts (except editorials and Letters-to-the-Editor). This synopsis will appear in the table of contents and used for social media.
Abstract. Each manuscript must include a structured abstract of no more than 250 words, divided into the following subheadings: (1) Background or Purpose, (2) Methods, (3) Results, and (4) Discussion or Conclusions.
IMRad. Manuscript contents should be organized using the structure of Introduction, Methods, Results, and Discussion (IMRad), the common way of structuring a scientific article.
