Author Instructions
Information on submitting materials to Arthritis Practitioner
Word Count for Features
While the majority of feature articles in Arthritis Practitioner are planned and assigned well in advance, we will consider additional submissions for feature articles.
Feature articles should range between 2,000 and 3,000 words (with any references being in addition to the preceding word count for the main text). Articles should be submitted as word documents.
They can be e-mailed as word attachments to
, Executive Editor .
Please avoid formatting the word document or trying to embed photos into the word document.
References
References should be listed at the end of the article. They should be numbered in the order of how they appear in the text. However, please do not embed the references within the text. Simply note the number at the end of the sentence in which you cite a reference. Then note the corresponding full citation at the end of the article.
References should appear as follows:
1. Pittman K, et al. Treating osteoarthritis of the knee. Arthritis Practitioner 2(2): 17-24, 2006.
Clinical Photo Formats/Instructions
In terms of photo format, high-quality original color photos are the best but strong color slides are also effective. OR digital color photos can be sent on a CD as long as each photo is saved separately as a "tiff" file or at 300 DPI resolution.
Alternatively, if the “tiff” files are problematic, high-resolution “j-peg” files should be okay as long as they blow up big on your computer screen.
Also, the more color clinical photos you can send to help illustrate the main points in your article, the better. Again, please do not embed photos into the word document.
The photos/CD can be sent to the attention of Jeff Hall or Anthony Leone at the following address:
HMP Communications
83 General Warren Boulevard
Suite 100
Malvern , PA 19355
For any photos, please provide a separate word document with brief descriptions of each numbered photo so we can match them up with appropriate photo captions. One or two brief sentences per photo is fine.
If you have any further questions, please contact
, Executive Editor .
