TITLE
The Title should be a brief phrase that describes the paper's contents. The Title Page should include the authors' full names and affiliations, the name of the corresponding author, along with contact number and e-mail information. Present addresses of authors should appear as a footnote.

ABSTRACT
The Abstract should be informative and completely self-explanatory, briefly present the topic, state the scope of the experiments, indicate significant data, and point out major findings and conclusions. The abstract should be no more than 250 words. Complete sentences, active verbs, and the third person should be used, and the abstract should be written in the past tense. Standard nomenclature should be used, and abbreviations should be avoided. No literature should be cited.

Key Words

INTRODUCTION
The Introduction should be concise and define the scope of the work in relation to other work done in the same field. Purpose of the study, aims & objectives, and significance of the study should be mentioned in the Introduction section.

MATERIALS AND METHODS
Materials and Methods should be complete enough and clearly describe the experiments and techniques used in the study. However, only truly new procedures should be described in detail; previously published procedures should be cited, and necessary modifications of published procedures should be mentioned briefly. Write this section in the past tense.

Statistical Analysis
The details of statistical tests used and the level of significance should be stated. If more than one test is used it is important to indicate which groups and parameters have been subjected to which test. Write the name of the software and the version used for data analysis.

RESULTS
Results should be combined and presented with clarity and precision. The results should be written in the past tense when describing findings in the author(s)'s experiments. Previously published findings should be written in the present tense. Results should be expressed preferably in the form of a table. Don’t repeat the same findings in the table as well as in graphs/figures.

DISCUSSION

The Discussion should interpret the findings in light of current and past studies. Focus on interpretation, not just repeating results. Discuss new significant observations, previous work, and study weaknesses. Propose new hypotheses or recommendations. Avoid unsupported statements and repetition of the Introduction and Results sections.

CONCLUSION
State the conclusions in a few sentences in a lucid manner at the end of the paper. Conclusions must be drawn considering the strengths and weaknesses of the study. Emphasize the clinical significance of the study.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT(S)

Tables
Tables should be kept to a minimum, placed appropriately in the text, and designed as simply as possible. Tables should be self-explanatory without reference to the text. The details of the methods used in the experiments should be described in the legend rather than in the text. The same data should not be presented in both table and graph forms or repeated in the text. Tables should be prepared in Microsoft Word.
Don’t keep tables/figures at the end of the article. All the tables/figures should be kept in the appropriate place in the text of the article where you have mentioned these tables/figures. All the tables/figures should be mentioned in the text of the article.

Figure legends: Graphics should be prepared using applications capable of generating high-resolution GIF, TIFF, JPEG, or PowerPoint before pasting into the Microsoft Word manuscript file. Use Arabic numerals to designate figures, and use upper-case letters for their parts (Figure 1). Figures can be attached as a JPEG file.
