- Abstract
- Getting your scientific paper published can be a difficult process. The quality of the paper relates to the quality of the design of the study, the questions asked, and defining an excellent primary endpoint that is easy to understand, and data obtained from a sufficiently large population. Before submitting your paper, go over all requirements like ethical approval, registration in public databases, and conflict of interest declarations. Manuscripts are structured in several sections. The introduction section should mainly focus on why the study was done. The materials and methods section should describe what was used and the results section provides a good representation of all data. Specifically, attention needs to be paid to high quality tables and figures. The discussion section should focus on putting the results in perspective. The abstract should cover all aspects in a condensed and focused manner. The publication process is handled by editors, reviewers, and the publisher. The first impression is the most important factor that decides whether the paper is sent out for review. If revisions are requested, a thoughtful response to the reviewers is needed. Hopefully, it all will lead to acceptance of the paper and publication.
