投稿常见退回情况分析

1. BMC系列期刊

最近BMC将Research article类型从Editorial Manager投稿系统搬到了nature.com，其余的文稿类型目前依旧留在Editorial Manager，虽然拆分成了两个系统，但是稿约依旧沿袭以前的链接, 我们收集了一些Research article在nature.com退回的原因：

• Corresponding uncropped full-length gels and blot should be included in the supplementary information.

  关于这条需要说明的是，但凡是文稿中有凝胶图的都需要提供原图，这个原图需要放在word里面，原图的上方需要有文稿的题目和作者姓名，最后提交的时候需要另存成PDF，上传在other模块而不能放在Supplementary materials下面，因为补充材料需要在正文有对应的引用。

• Any manuscript involving research on animals wherein In-vivo experiments are conducted must confirm that all experiments were performed in accordance with relevant guidelines and regulations. Kindly provide following requirements:

  • A statement to confirm that all methods were carried out in accordance with relevant guidelines and regulations.

  • A statement confirming the study was carried out in compliance with the ARRIVE guidelines.

以前BMC涉及到动物只需要在材料方法部分标明The study was approved by Ethics Committee of XXX，现在不一样了，必须写明The study was approved by Ethics Committee of XXX，all methods were carried out in accordance with relevant guidelines and regulations. This study was carried out in compliance with the ARRIVE guidelines.

2. Wiley旗下的杂志The International Journal of Imaging Systems and Technology

这个是关于一个影像学方面的杂志，存在着稿约和系统对于文献格式的要求不一致，所以投这个杂志的作者为了避免退回一定留意。

杂志稿约要求APA格式（American Psychological Association）: This journal uses APA reference style; as the journal offers Free Format submission, however, this is for information only and you do not need to format the references in your article. This will instead be taken care of by the typesetter.

但是系统强制要求Vancouver (numbered): Please ensure that your referencing style is Vancouver (numbered) as it is necessary.
