Instruction for Authors

This page will give you an understanding of how to write a research article for the Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Medicine & Surgery, this is for whom they do not know about a manuscript preparation and are first to write their research. This also includes the format for editing, structuring and type-setting their manuscripts to match to the journal requirements before submission.

Before submitting an article, please go through our editorial policies (About Page Hyperlink) to know how we practice ethical guidelines and transparency in processing an article.

Scope

The Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Medicine & Surgery explores the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies in medical and surgical practices, focusing on key concepts such as clinical decision-making, machine learning (ML), and deep learning (DL) to enhance diagnosis, treatment planning, and patient outcomes. It covers AI applications in medical imaging, robotic surgery, and personalized medicine, as well as AI-driven advancements in drug discovery, clinical trials, and epidemiology. The journal also delves into health informatics, with AI tools designed for electronic health records (EHR) management, predictive analytics, and remote patient monitoring. It examines the ethical considerations of AI in healthcare, such as transparency, accountability, and patient privacy, while addressing regulatory challenges and safety standards. Furthermore, the journal highlights AI's impact on healthcare systems optimization, including resource management, cost reduction, and workforce planning. It targets a multidisciplinary audience, including researchers, clinicians, developers, and policymakers, and publishes original research, case studies, reviews, and articles on AI innovations in healthcare.

Criteria to know before submission

Publishing manuscripts in English, why?

As English is the only language highly communicable all around the world and most of the nations use English as a primary source of communication with individuals. Publication of your manuscripts in English makes your research reach the widest audience, indeed this is the best possible way to achieve your goal of disseminating your research.

If not English is your first language, we recommend you to edit it with an expert in English language or submit it to an editing firm that translates it to English, before submitting your research to Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Medicine & Surgery.

What do editors aim for?

Journal editors need a quality research in science to publish which is of high interest to their readers. The high-quality manuscripts with simple writings build impact in the scientific community which has chances of early acceptance for publication. Acceptance of a manuscript solely depends upon editor’s choice, and it is worth knowing their decisions.

A description of advancements in the research, preparing a manuscript with potential matter and a good format, simple in language, clear in technical issues and by following ethical practices gives the editor the best possibility in accepting the manuscript.

Authorship

The perpetual nature of writing a new idea, a new theory or an innovation which comes into mind behaves authorship. Authorship needs to be given credit for their huge contribution in wide varieties of disciplines, writings and their noticeable features towards academic, social, and financial significances.

A contributor towards scientific community is awarded as an “author” if he/she has made substantial innovative contributions towards the concerned study. We suggest each contributor to stick to the guidelines mentioned for authorship in International Committee of Medical Journal Editors guidelines that are relevant to your research field. To be qualified as an author as per ICMJE recommendations the author should possess or must be

A significant contributor towards the concept and design, or the acquisition, analysis, and interpretation of data for the work in the relevant field
Engaged in drafting the work or revising it critically for important intellectual content
Able to approve the final version of the manuscript for publication. Every author involving should have their own intellectual in providing sufficient contributions to their content
Signing an 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

In accordance with all the above-mentioned criteria for authorship, the corresponding author should also be able to distinguish which co-authors are responsible for writing specific other parts of the work. The authors are responsible for their integrity in contributions of their own research.

Authors who wish to make changes in authorship and include individual as co-author in their manuscripts or willing to make the addition or deletion of co-author name, then the corresponding author should submit their corrections by filling out this authorship form.

Acknowledgments section Includes

All contributors who are responsible for writing the published manuscript and who do not meet the authorship criteria recommended by ICMJE should be acknowledged in the acknowledgment section in order to value their importance in the work published.

Overview on constructing a manuscript

The types of articles which Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Medicine & Surgery concentrates in publishing scholarly articles is been listed our here

Structure of Research Article

In submitting a manuscript of one’s or group’s own research work to journal, one should follow the following standard structure before submission of a research article.

Title
Abstract
Keywords
Introductions/Background
Methods/ Material and Methods
Results
Discussion
Conclusion

The structure of the article will give the systematic flow of the study. Brings out journal manuscripts being capable of foreseeable and makes it so easy to read. It gives a design so that the audience could easily find out the content so interesting and authors could easily find out and get reminded of the content which is to be placed.

Construction of Research article

Research is a good understanding of a current problem and researcher’s extensive efforts towards a new innovation with an excellence in various scientific fields, bringing practical knowledge explaining theoretically.

Title and Abstract

The title and abstract are the most important sections of a research or innovation. These sections decide the manuscript overall content and help reviewers and editors to decide whether to conduct a peer-review and edit the manuscript for processing. Peer reviewers are asked for their willingness in reviewing the manuscript by sending them the title & abstract sections.

It is important that the title should be easily read and understood, exact and brief as possible.

It is well-known that all the researchers search the article by the title or a keyword and it is essential that the title should be well structured and more searchable. So that it gets easier for a reader to understand the author’s intention of study with accurate, descriptive and complete.

An abstract is a quick overview of the manuscript and its structure differs for a different type of article. For a research the standard format used makes the researcher find the content of manuscript easier. The specified format in structuring an abstract follows

Background/Introduction
Methods/Material & Methods
Results
Conclusion

Keynotes in writing a title:

Should be informative and must make use of specific terms
Should use simple and common, words and their combinations
Should avoid usage of abbreviations and acronyms
Should write full names of scientific names and bacteria
Should present the full names of chemicals rather than their formulas
Should avoid the use of Roman letters

Keynotes in writing an Abstract:

It should not exceed the word limit of 350-400 words
It should be included the word descriptions and synonyms for the concepts that are mentioned in the title
Should use simple and common, words and their combinations
