Top of pageAuthor Biography
Papers should be accompanied by a short (about 100 words) description of the author(s) and, if appropriate, the organisation of which he or she is a member.

Top of pageGeneral guidelines
Authors should not seek to use the Journal as a vehicle for marketing any specific product or service.
Authors should avoid the use of language or slang which is not in keeping with the professional and academic style of the Journal.
Titles of organisations etc. should be written out first in full and thereafter in initials.
Authors must ensure that references to named people and/or organisations are accurate, not racist or sexist and without libellous implications.
Top of pageReferences
Papers should be supported by references. These should be set out in accordance with the Vancouver style - that is, they should be referred to by number in the text and set out in full at the end of the text in the style shown in the following examples. If the same reference is used more than once it should not be listed multiple times at the end of the text with different numbers used in the text each time, rather the number of the first referral should be used throughout.

Top of pageAccuracy of content
Contributions, whether published pseudonymously or not, are accepted on the strict understanding that the author is responsible for the accuracy of all opinion, technical comment, factual report, data, figures, illustrations and photographs. Publication does not necessarily imply that these are the opinions of the Editorial Board, Editors or the Publisher, nor does the Board, Editors or Publisher accept any liability for the accuracy of such comment, report and other technical and factual information. The Publisher will, however, strive to ensure that all opinion, comments, reports, data, figures, illustrations and photographs are accurate, insofar as it is within its abilities to do so.
