GENERAL INFORMATION FOR AUTHORS FOR ALL ARTICLE TYPES
All submissions should include:
Credits and Permissions
Clinical Photographs of recognisable persons: Images must be obscured to de-identify patients. In cases where images cannot be sufficiently de-identified (e.g., face, distinctive tattoo, etc.), please indicate in your submission that you have obtained notice of informed consent and releases to publish photographs of recognisable persons. The journal may ask to view these agreements if your article proceeds to publication.
Non-original materials (e.g quotations exceeding 100 words, any table or figure, including those that have been ‘adapted from’): Written permission should be submitted for use of non-original material from the original author and/or publisher of the original material. Credit the source in a text or table footnote or at the end of a figure legend, or as a reference.
Style
Units. All measurements should be in SI units with the exception of haemoglobin (g/dL) and blood pressure (mmHg). Original observations recorded in other units should be stated, together with the appropriate conversion factors. Standard abbreviations, without punctuation, are used. Units, Symbols and Abbreviations (1988) published by the Royal Society of Medicine, and SI: The International System of Units (1982), from HMSO provide useful guides. Abbreviated words must be spelled out on first appearance in both summary and text. Abbreviations, used sparingly, should follow the first full spelling, in parentheses.
Abbreviations. Avoid using abbreviations.
Drug Names. Generic names must be used (non-capitalised). If authors so desires, brand names may be inserted in parentheses (Capitalised, but no need to include company details).
Statistics. Methods should be referenced. Two-tailed significance tests should be used unless explicitly stated. Controls should be described as completely as experimental subjects. Measures of location should be accompanied by measures of variability (e.g. mean and confidence intervals) as well as conventional probability values. Clinical trial reports should include the power of the study design.
Title Page
The title page should contain:
A short informative title containing the major key words. The title should not contain abbreviations (see Wiley's best practice SEO tips)
A short running title of less than 40 characters
The full names of the authors
The author's ORCID number, if available
The author's institutional affiliations where the work was conducted, with a footnote for the author’s present address if different from where the work was conducted

For details on what to include in this section, see the 'Conflict of Interest' section in the Editorial Policies and Ethical Considerations section below.

Statement of appropriate institutional board approval and informed consent.
For experimental investigations of human or animal subjects, state in the 'Methods' section that an appropriate institutional review board approved the project, and that informed consent was appropriately obtained. For those investigators who do not have formal ethics review committees (institutional or regional), the principles outlined in the Declaration of Helsinki and the Declaration of Taipei should be followed and attested to.
