Information for authors
Information for Authors The Journal ofAAPOS publishes original articles, including clinical and laboratory investigations, case reports, surgical techniques, description of instrumentation, current concept reviews, editorials, letters to the Editor, and news items. Preference will be given to manuscripts that address issues relevant to pediatric ophthalmology and strabismus: anatomy, embryology, and development of the eye or eye muscles; ocular manifestations of pediatric systemic disease; eye movement disorders in children and adults; development of the visual system; epidemiology; ocular genetics; and any other ocular disorders. The Journal maintains a clinical focus, although basic science research applicable to clinical practice will also be considered. We suggest that authors wishing to submit review articles consult directly with the Editor in Chief before submitring them. Authors do not need to be members of the American Association for Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus (AAPOS) to submit material to theJournal ofAAPOS; manuscripts when written by AAPOS members are not given preferential consideration. The Editor only considers manuscripts submitted solely to the Journal. Manuscript text or data that have been previously published in a similar form, are a minor extension of previously published material, or have been extensively reported in "tabloid" ophthalmologic publications may be considered unacceptable. Questions pertaining to a manuscript or concerning prior publication should be directed to the Editor in Chief in the cover letter with copies of the previous publication. An original and two copies of the manuscript should be submitted to Burton J. Kushner, MD, c/o Journal ofAAPOS, 2870 University Ave., Suite 206, Madison, W I 53705. Authors are advised to retain a copy of the manuscript and illustrations for future reference with the Journal. Submitted manuscripts will not be returned. The Review Process Receipt of each manuscript will be acknowledged to the corresponding author. Two referees--either Editorial Board members or experts in the field--will review manuscripts and make recommendations on suitability for publication. The referees are masked to the identity of the authors to provide an impartial review. Likewise, the Journal does not reveal referees' identities but does send pertinent comments to the author. The author will be notified of the Editorial Board's decision after the review. If a manuscript is returned for revision, the revised version should be received by the Journal within 6 months. Otherwise, the revised manuscript will be reviewed as a new submission. Before publication, the publisher will mail proofs to the author for examination and approval. A complimentary copy of the Journal is sent to the corresponding author on publication, along with a price schedule and an order form for reprints. Authors"Responsibility Cover letters should indicate the name, address, phone and fax numbers, and an e-mail address (if available) of the corresponding author, along with disclosi~re of any issue regarding fi•nancial conflict. Authors should list illustrations or tables previously published and enclose a letter of permission for reproduction rights. If any person's identity can be determined from a photo submitted with the manuscript, the author must include written permission to publish the photograph. All authors must sign the Author's Statement, certifying the copyright transfer, financial disclosure, and participation in this study (see below) and include
4A

it with the cover letter. T h e Author Checklist must be filled out and submitted with the manuscript. If a manuscript has multiple authors and some authors are geographically remote from each other, they may submit separate signed copies of the Author's Statement. However, the Editorial Office will not review a manuscript until the Author Checklist and a signed Author's Statement from each author has been received.
Technical Preparation of Manuscript Manuscript style should follow theAMA ManualofStyle and spelling should reflectDorland'slllustratedMedicalDictionary.The manuscript should be double-spaced throughout, on 81A × 11 inch white paper with 1-inch margins on four sides. Limit the use of abbreviations to those that are commonly understood without explanation (e.g., mm Hg). Do not abbreviate a syndrome or term merely because it appears frequently in the manuscript. Pharmaceuticals should be referred to by the generic name. Patients should be referred to by case number rather than by name or initials. Pages should be numbered consecutively with a short running title in the header. The text should not identify the author(s), the institution, or the geographic location by name or initial. If necessary, these items can be referred to by"XXX" in the text; the proper identification can be substituted after peer review.
Keyboarding the Electronically Prepared Manuscript These instructions are crucial to enable Mosby to use your diskette. Do not justify the right margin or use centering tabs for text or headers. Be sure to key the letter O, the number 0, the letter 1, and the number 1 correctly. Use only one space after colons or periods. Use the default hyphenation of your word processor. Use two hyphens for long dashes. Key in the reference list at the end of the text. Do not use your word processor's footnote or endnote feature to create references. Software designed to create references that is used as an adjunct to word processing software (e.g., Endnote) is acceptable. Such software, in effect, keys in the reference list at the end of text. Use the table format or use only tabs, not spaces, to align columns in preparing tables. Do use your word processor's capabilities for bold, underline, italic, subscript, and superscript. Text that will be published in italic form may be keyboarded as italic or underlined text. Do not input special typesetting codes. Mosby will handle all design considerations for typefaces and page layout after an accepted paper is transferred to the publisher.
Organization of Manuscript Manuscripts (except short reports--see below) should be arranged in the following order when appropriate: Title page, Abstract, Introduction, Methods and Materials or Subjects and Methods, Report of Cases, Results, Discussion, Acknowledgments, References', Legends for Figures, and Tables. High-quality photocopies of illustrations should be appended to the body of the manuscript following the tables.
Title Page Each manuscript should be submitted with two title pages. T h e first title page should include the tide of the manuscript; each author's name, academic degree, and academic affiliation; the corresponding author; the institution at which the study was conducted; the address to which reprints should be sent; and the running title. T h e corresponding author's address, telephone number, and fax number (if available) should be listed. Authors wishing to receive e-mail communication from readers can have
JournalofAP.POS
their e-mail addresses printed with the published manuscript. Material presented at the AAPOS annual meeting, or any other national meeting, should be acknowledged on the title page. Any author's financial conflict of interest regarding the subject matter in the manuscript should be disclosed on the title page. T o facilitate masking, this title page will be removed by the Editorial Office before the manuscript is sent to the reviewers. The second title page should contain only the complete title of the manuscript. The first title page is the only page on which the author(s) name(s) should be identified. Abstract T h e abstract must be in the "structured" format and less than 250 words. Where appropriate, abstract headings should read: Background or Purpose; Methods; Results; and Conclusions. See Ann Intern Med 1997; 126:36-47(websitehttp:/www.acponline.org/ journals/annals/Oljan1997/unifreq.htm) for more information on structured abstracts. Short reports should not have an abstract (see section on Short Reports). Text The text should include the following sections when appropriate for the material: Introduction, Methods and Materials or Subjects and Methods, Report of Cases, Results, and Discussion. A summary section should not appear at the end of the manuscript. Acknowledgments Acknowledgments must be listed on a separate page following the text. T o facilitate masking, this page will be removed by the Editorial Office before the manuscript is sent to reviewers. Limit acknowledgments to individuals who provided extensive help, without which the study could not be conducted yet who do not qualify for authorship. Examples include those individuals who provided statistical help, essential equipment or laboratory help, or who translated references. The Journal does not acknowledge individuals who participated in the management of patients in the study as a part of their regular job. References References should be numbered consecutively in the manuscript in the order in which they are cited. Number and list references in the reference section in that order. Use the format of the "Uniform Requirements for Manuscripts Submitted to Biomedical Journals" (Ann Intern Med 1997;126:36-47; website http://
www.acponline.org/journals/annals/O ljan19 9 7/unifreq.htm). Journal rifles should conform to abbreviations used in Cumulated Index Medicus. Examples of reference styles are as follows: Articles: Flynn JT, O'Grady G, Herrera J, Kushner BJ. Retrolental fibroplasia. I. Clinical observations. Arch Ophthalmol 1977;95:217-23. Books: Parks MM. Ocular motility and strabismus. Hagerstown (MD): Harper & Row; 1975. p. 99. Contributions in Books: Jampolsky A. Adjustable eyelid and eyebrbw suspension for blepharoptosis. In: Wesley RE, editor. Techniques in ophthalmic plastic surgery. New York: John Wiley & Sons; 1986. p. 304. Unpublished data and personal communications should not be listed as references but mentioned parenthetically in the text. The author should provide written authorization for the use of personal communications. Legends for Figures All figures should be numbered in the order in which they are
JournalofAAPOS
referred to in the text. The Legends for Figures should be a brief description that allows the figure to be fully understood. Material that is in the Legends for Figures should not be repeated in the text. Tables Table numbers should appear at the top of each table in the order in which they are referenced in the manuscript, along with a short descriptive title. Abbreviations used in tables that are not commonly understood terms should be explained in a legend. Material that is in the tables should not be repeated in the text. Each table must be submitted on a separate sheet of 8½ x 11 inch paper. Use additional sheets if the table does not fit on one page. Double-space the table. Illustrations Submit three identical sets of illustrations, with each set in a separate envelope. On the back of each illustration, place a label containing the figure number, an indication of orientation (e.g., top, left), and the running tide of the manuscript. The author(s)' name(s) must not appear on the figure or label. If the anthor(s)' name(s) appears on the figures, the manuscript will be returned. Only unmounted glossy prints or high-quality, camera-ready laser-generated illustrations are acceptable. Photographs that are either 4 x 6 inch or 5 x 7 inch are preferred. High-quality photocopies of illustrations should be appended to the body of the manuscript after the tables. Color illustrations or photographs are acceptable; however, it is the author's responsibility to carry the added expense of publishing in color. Prices are available on request fromJill Atkinson (800-325-4177) at MosbyYear Book, Inc. Color figures sfaould be submitted as transparencies or photographs, whichever format will show the color best. Authors wishing to publish color photographs should state so in their cover letter. Otherwise they will be published in black and white. Short Reports This section contains case reports, surgical techniques, and description of instrumentation. Manuscripts for the Short Reports section should be in the following form: Title Page, Text, References (no more than 10), Legends for Figures. Short Reports should not have an abstract. Manuscripts submitted as Short Reports should not exceed 1200 words of text and may have up to three illustrations. Each illustration reduces the text limit by 200 words. Unless otherwise stated, the general requirements for manuscripts outlined above apply to Short Reports. Letters to the Editor Correspondence regarding articles that have been published in the Journal should be submitted within 6 weeks of that publication. Letters to the Editor will be considered for publication by the Editorial Board and may be subject to editing. If a Letter to the Editor is regarding a previous publication in the Journal, the author of that article will be given an oppommity to reply. Letters to the Editor must contain a title page, be double-spaced, submitted in triplicate, and accompanied by copyright and disclosure statements. News Items The Journal publishes notices or other items regarding meetings, honors, named lectures, and obituaries revelant to its readership.
