Instructions for Authors
【官网信息】
1. General Information
1.1 Authorship
The authors who meet the following four conditions could be added as co-authors. Please refer to ICMJE for details.
Substantial
contributions to the conception or design of the work; or the
acquisition, analysis, or interpretation of data for the work; and
Drafting the work or revising it critically for important intellectual content; and
Final approval of the version to be published; and
Agreement
to be accountable for all aspects of the work in ensuring that
questions related to the accuracy or integrity of any part of the work
are appropriately investigated and resolved.
Authors are encouraged to utilize CRediT to delineate the contributions of each author.
1.2 Types of Journal Articles
Article:
Articles are definitive accounts of significant and original studies.
They present important new data or provide a fresh approach to an
established subject.
Letter:
Letters are usually preliminary reports of special significance and
urgency that are given expedited publication. They are accepted if the
editor believes that their rapid publication will be a service to the
scientific community.
Review: Reviews integrate, correlate, and evaluate results from published literature on a particular subject.
Survey:
A survey paper summarizes and organizes recent research results in a
novel way that integrates and adds understanding to work in the field.
It emphasizes the classification of the existing literature, developing a
perspective on the area, and evaluating trends.
Commentary:
Commentaries are short, narrowly focused articles that are responses to
recently published articles that are interesting enough to warrant
further comment or explanation. This type of commentary discusses
specific issues within a subject area and the previously published
article rather than the whole field.
Perspective:
Perspectives discuss one or a cluster of recently published papers or a
current research topic of high interest in which an author's
perspective sheds an incisive light on key findings in research.
Note:
Advanced Cancer Research accepts extended version of conference papers.
However authors should ensure that (1) the extension should be more
than 1/3, (2) copyright permission should have been obtained from the
conference holder, and (3) the original publication should be cited and
the difference from the previous conference publication should be stated
in the cover letter.
1.3 Copyright Permission
Note
that it is the author's responsibility to obtain written permission
from the copyright holder for any figures reused from elsewhere. Please
add references to the figure caption and put appropriate credit lines,
for example: Reprinted with permission [2]. Copyright 2021 Elsevier.
1.4 Research Ethics
Studies involving animals
For
research involving animal experiments, authors should observe the
ARRIVE guidelines . Research procedures must be conducted in line with
national and institutional guidelines. The manuscripts must include a
statement that ethical approval was obtained, including the name of the
Ethics Committee or Institutional Review Board, approval date, and
approval number. If ethical approval is not required, authors must
provide an exemption from the Ethics Committee or Institutional Review
Board, or a detailed statement why approval is not required. We
recommend that authors comply with the IUCN Policy Statement on Research
Involving Species at Risk of Extinction and follow the American
Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) Guidelines for the Euthanasia of
Animals (2020) as veterinary best practice for anesthesia and euthanasia
of animals.
Studies involving humans
Research
involving human experiments, must comply with the Declaration of
Helsinki. An ethical approval statement including the name of the Ethics
Committee or Institutional Review Board, approval date, and approval
number must be included. If the research is granted an exemption of
ethical approval, the authors must give a detailed statement of
exemption including the name of Ethics Committee.
Research involving human embryos, gametes, and stem cells
Researchers
must adhere to all applicable local, national, and international laws,
regulations, and ethical standards governing research involving human
embryos, gametes, and stem cells. Authors are required to obtain prior
approval from an appropriate institutional ethics committee and informed
consent from all donors of cells or tissues, where applicable.
Documentation of ethical approval and consent must be available upon
request and should be clearly stated in the manuscript. We recommend the
authors to follow the principles laid out in the 2016 ISSCR Guidelines
for Stem Cell Research and Clinical Translation.
Consent to participate
Authors
are encouraged to adhere to the Recommendations for the Conduct,
Reporting, Editing, and Publication of Scholarly Work in Medical
Journals and include informed consent information in the method section
for experiments involving human participants in the manuscript. For
human transplantation studies, it is essential to confirm that organs or
tissues were not obtained from individuals in custody and specify the
relevant institutions, clinics, or departments from which organs/tissues
were sourced. Authors should also be prepared to furnish documentary
evidence of obtained consent upon request.
Clinical trials
are required to follow the CONSORT statement for comprehensive
reporting of randomized controlled trials, and submit the recommended
checklist with their manuscripts upon submission. Additionally, clinical
trials should be registered in accordance with ICMJE criteria,
including the registration number in acknowledgments and providing a
citation link to the registration as a reference.
1.5 Research Data
ELSP
is determined to improve knowledge exchange among scientists and
facilitate open science. We encourage authors to share the research data
to the open repository, such as general data, Figshare, Dryad, Harvard
Dataverse, Zenodo; computer software or code, GitHub. The research data
could be published as Supporting Information together with the paper if
there are limited research data. For studies involving sequencing data,
authors are required to provide the name of the data repository, the
accession number(s), and the corresponding link(s) in the Data
Availability Statement.
1.6 Declaration of Generative AI and AI-assisted Technologies
must disclose any use of generative AI or AI-assisted tools (such as
large language models) in the preparation of this manuscript. Such tools
are permitted only for language or copy editing purposes. Authors
remain fully responsible for the integrity, originality, and accuracy of
the content.
Example statements:
The authors did not use generative AI or AI-assisted technologies in the writing of this manuscript.
During
the preparation of this manuscript, the authors used generative AI
tools only to improve language and readability. Specifically, the
authors used ChatGPT, Grammarly, etc. for language polishing only/for
drafting/for rewriting/for idea development in limited
sections/substantial portions/entire manuscript. The authors take full
responsibility for the content of the manuscript.
1.7 Tables
It
is author’s responsibility to ensure that the figures are legible and
technically correct. Therefore you must ensure that the resolution of
figures should be at least 300 ppi. Figures must have captions that
include figure number and a brief, informative description preferably in
a non-sentence format. Text in the figure legend must have the same
font style (Times News Roman) and size (16px). Figures must be numbered
sequentially using Arabic numerals in order of discussion in the
document (e.g. Figure 1, Figure 2, etc.) and parts of a figure are
typically indicated with a number and letter (e.g. Figure 1(a), Figure
1(b), etc.). The accepted formats are JPEG, TIFF, EPS, PDF, and
Graphical source files. For original research papers, the number of
figures in the main text should preferably be limited to eight
(excluding the graphical abstract). For Review articles, the combined
total of figures and tables should preferably be limited to six.
