The manuscript structure remains the same as mentioned for original full length research articles except that there would be a “review” / “body” instead of “results and discussion” section. The materials and methods section should contain for example the information about: selection criteria of studies, source of data / databases, search strategies, number of studies screened and included, treatment methods, statistical methods, softwares used, etc. The main content of the review article should focus on analyses of previously published methodological approaches, models tested, studies/theories that agree or disagree with each other etc. The text must be organized in chronological order and if applicable write each ideas/topics from different geographical location in separate paragraphs. It is important that the authors organize the different pieces on information logically justifying the objective of the review. The conclusions should answer the research questions mentioned in the introduction and gives a message that integrates the points discussed in the review which recommend new research areas.</p> <p><strong>Clinical studies</strong></p> <p>Studies of the clinical investigations and / or observations should begin with an organized abstract that explain the purpose, study design, methods including selection procedure, primary outcome of the study and conclusion with their clinical relevance. After that the manuscript should follow the standard format: introduction describing the study principle, design and objectives; materials & methods used and types of analysis, presentation of results with discussion on safety and adverse events explaining the risk/benefit assessment and conclusions. In studies involving animals, a statement describing the care of animals and details of IACUC ethical approval should be included in the manuscript.</p> <p>In studies involving animals, a statement describing the care of animals and details of IACUC ethical approval should be included in the manuscript. In studies involving experimental investigations, a declarative sentence stating that informed consent was obtained from the participants and the study was reviewed by the respective federal or appropriate ethics committee or IRB or that no IRB approval was required, must be included in the manuscript.</p> <p><strong>Case report</strong></p> <p>Case report should begin with well-defined expressive abstract followed by the sections: introduction, case report(s), discussion and references. Author should state the potential impact of the case report to the medical scientific community in the abstract.</p> <p><strong>Clinical Trial Registration</strong></p> <p>In order for clinical trial results to be considered for publication in our journal (which adhere to ICMJE standards), all clinical trials that start recruiting patients or volunteers must be registered with a public registry before the enrolment of the first subject. This ensures that everyone can find key information about every clinical trial whose principal aim is to shape medical decision-making.</p> <p>The ICMJE accepts registration of clinical trials in the following registries:</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.anzctr.org.au" data-auth="NotApplicable">www.anzctr.org.au</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.clinicaltrials.gov" data-auth="NotApplicable">www.clinicaltrials.gov</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.ISRCTN.org" data-auth="NotApplicable">www.ISRCTN.org</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.umin.ac.jp/ctr/index/htm" data-auth="NotApplicable">www.umin.ac.jp/ctr/index/htm</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.trialregister.nl" data-auth="NotApplicable">www.trialregister.nl</a></li> <li><a href="https://eudract.ema.europa.eu/" data-auth="NotApplicable">https://eudract.ema.europa.eu/</a> (new registrations after June 20, 2011)</li> </ul> <p>In addition to the above registries, starting in June 2007 the ICMJE will also accept registration in any of the primary registries that participate in the WHO International Clinical Trials Portal (see <a href="http://www.who.int/ictrp/network/primary/en/index.html" data-auth="NotApplicable">http://www.who.int/ictrp/network/primary/en/index.html</a>).</p> <p><strong>Letters to Editors</strong></p> <p>Letters to editors are generally, articles written in reference to the article (s) previously published in the journal. The article should comment or make suggestions to the work published previously and help in enhancing knowledge and to find way towards future research needs.</p> <p>The journal also publishes invited editorials, editorial comments, etc.</p> </div> <h4 class="expand">Manuscript Rejection</h4> <div class="collapse"> <p>JNEN reserves the right to reject the manuscripts publication that do not meet the technical or ethical standards (<a title="COPE" href="http://publicationethics.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">COPE</a>) according to the editorial policies and retract publications if any breach and / or misconduct of ethical standards, dispute of interests comes to light during post-publication peer review process.</p> <p>It is the sole responsibility of the authors to make sure that their research article does not include any plagiarized content and/or breach the ethical guidelines and the publishers are not responsible for any such scientific misconduct. JNEN vows to strictly adhere to all the policies and guidelines related to scientific publishing (as mentioned in the Publishing Policies and Guidelines section) and if any misconduct is detected at any time during the publication process, JNEN has the right to retract an article or publish erratum under the advice of the Editor-in-Chief.</p> </div> <h4 class="expand">Manuscript Withdrawl</h4> <div class="collapse"> <p>Withdrawing a manuscript after the review process / during the production process / after the release of galley proof, wastes valuable resources and a tremendous amount of effort made in processing by the editor, reviewers and other editorial staff. To evade the withdrawal of articles and to encourage generous submissions, JNEN declares a withdrawal policy of charging 97USD to the authors as a withdrawal fee (incurred on man hours, processing tools and software’s used).</p> <p> </p> </div> <div class="addtoany_share_save_container addtoany_content_bottom"><div class="a2a_kit a2a_kit_size_32 addtoany_list"
