The abstract should be clear, descriptive and
not longer than 400 words. The abstract
needs to be a carefully written summary of the
article and should summarise it so that it is
understandable on its own, without reference to
the full text. It should begin with a clear
statement of the objective of the paper, and end
by pointing out important conclusions.
5.- Original research manuscripts will
have the following structure:
1.Introduction
2.Material
3.Methods
4.Results
5.Discussion
6.Acknowledgment and any additional information
concerning research grants, etc.
7.References
Points 2-3 (Material and Methods) and 4-5
(Results and Discussion) can go together. After
point 5 It is accepted a Conclusion section.
Introduction:
it should explain the background, why the
research was done, and specify the hypothesis
that is being tested.
Materials and Methods : All procedures
should be clearly explained, or referred to by
means of the original reference. Any
modifications to procedures must be explained.
The information provided should be sufficient
that a reader could repeat exactly the
experiments reported, if desired. When the study
is done with animals the title of the section
could be also “Animals and Methods” or “Subjects
and Methods”
Results: This section should include only
results that are relevant to the hypotheses
outlined in the Introduction and considered in
the Discussion. Present results in tabular or
graphical form (see following sections) wherever
possible. Results already described in the
tables or figures shouldn’t be repeated in this
section. Sufficient data should be presented so
that the reader can interpret the results
independently.
Discussion: it should interpret the
results, and set them in the context of what is
already known in the appropriate field. Results
already described in the Results section should
not be repeated here. Any necessary extensive
discussion of the literature should be placed in
the Discussion, and not in the Introduction.
Conclusion: it should be one no longer
than 5 lines, and should present the take-home
message that can be derived from the results
presented.
6.- Methanalysis and reviews: They will
include at least Abstract and Conclusions
section.
7.- Clinical Cases:
They will include Introduction, Clinical case/es
and Discussion.
8.- References:
The manuscript will have to include the
references following these conditions:
1.

We
also allowed
the list of references arranged chronologically
according to the order of author mentioned in
the manuscript.
2.
If reference is made in the text to a
publication written by more than two authors,
the name of the first author should be used
followed by "et al."
3.
References cited together in the text should be
arranged chronologically. The list of references
should be arranged alphabetically on authors'
names, and chronologically per author. If an
author's name in the list is also mentioned with
co-authors, the following order should be used:
publications of the single author, arranged
according to publication dates - publications of
the same author with one co-author -
publications of the author with more than one
co-author. Publications by the same author(s) in
the same year should be listed as 1974a, 1974b,
etc.
