Letters to the Editor
Letters to the Editors comments on articles in Clinical Neurology and Neurosurgery.
Book Reviews
Announcements are carried at the Editor's and Publisher's discretion.
Online submission of manuscripts
The preferred medium of final submission to the accepting Editor is online with the accompanying reviewed and revised manuscript (see "Electronic manuscripts" below). Submission of a paper to Clinical Neurology and Neurosurgery is understood to imply that it has not previously been published (except in abstract form) and that it is not being published elsewhere. Submitted manuscripts should be accompanied by statement undersigned by all listed authors that they concur with the submission and that the manuscript has been approved by the responsible authorities where the work was carried out. If accepted, the manuscript shall not be published elsewhere in the same form in either the same or any other language, without the consent of the Editor and Publisher. The decision of the Editor is final. The Editor cannot enter into correspondence about a paper considered unsuitable for publication.
Clinical Neurology and Neurosurgery uses an online, electronic submission system called EES (Elsevier Editorial System). By accessing the following website
httt://ees.elsevier.com/cnn
you will be guided stepwise through the creation and uploading of the various files. When submitting a manuscript to EES, authors need to provide an electronic version of their manuscript. The author should select a set of classifications from a list, and a category designation for their manuscript (original article, letter to the editor, short communication, etc.). Details of three reviewers that are required with a submission can be provided in the comments box or at a later stage when uploading the files for submission.
Authors may send queries concerning the submission process, manuscript status, or journal procedures to the Editorial Office (cnn@elsevier.com). Once the uploading is done, the system automatically generates an electronic (PDF) proof, which is then used for reviewing. All correspondence, including the Editor's decision and request for revisions, will be by e-mail.
Manuscript Preparation
Manuscripts, in English, must be submitted in double-spaced typing on pages of uniform size (preferably A4 or 8" x 11"). As a rule, papers should be divided into sections, headed by a caption (e.g., Abstract, Introduction, Materials and Methods, Results, Discussion, References). Please do not split the article into separate files (title page as one file, text as another, etc.). Ensure that the letter "l" and digit "1" (also letter "O" and digit "0") have been used properly, and structure your article (tabs, indents, etc.) consistently. Characters not available on your wordprocessor (Greek letters, mathematical symbols, etc.) should not be left open but indicated by a unique code (e.g., gralpha, @, #, etc., for the Greek letter &agr;). Such codes should be used consistently throughout the entire text. Please make a list of such codes and provide a key. Do not allow your wordprocessor to introduce word splits and do not use a "justified" layout. Please adhere strictly to the general instructions on style/arrangement and, in particular, the reference style of the journal. It is very important that you save your file in the wordprocessor format. If your wordprocessor features the option to save files "in flat ASCII", please do not use it.
Illustrations
Figures of good quality should be submitted online as a separate file. The lettering should be large enough to permit photographic reduction. Legends should be typed together on a separate page in the electronic manuscript. If a figure cannot be submitted online, a hardcopy may be sent; please contact the Editorial Office (cnn@elsevier.com) for further instructions.
Colour Reproduction
Reproduction in colour will have to be approved by the Editor. Authors will be required to pay a fee towards the extra costs incurred in colour reproduction. The charges are Euro 300.00 (approx. USD 300) for the first page involving colour, and Euro 200.00 (approx. USD 200) per page for all subsequent pages involving colour in a given article (all prices including sales tax).
If, together with your accepted article, you submit usable colour figures then Elsevier will ensure, at no additional charge, that these figures will appear in colour on the web (e.g. ScienceDirect and other sites) regardless of whether or not these illustrations are reproduced in colour in the printed version. For further information on the preparation of the electronic artwork, please see
http://www.elsevier.com/locate/authorartwork
If illustrations from previous articles or books are to be used in papers submitted to Clinical Neurology and Neurosurgery, the written permission of both author and publisher must accompany each illustration.
Tables
Tables should be submitted online as a separate file and should bear a short descriptive title. Legends for each table should appear on the same page as the table.
Abstract
An abstract of approximately 200 words is mandatory at the beginning of each article. Authors full names, academic or professional affiliations, and complete addresses must be included on the title page
Keywords
Normally 6-8 items should be included either on the title page or following the Abstract. Authors are encouraged to choose their own keywords, but Medical Subject Headings (issued with the January Index Medicus, latest edition) may be used as a guide line.
References
Citation in the text should be by numbers in square brackets. All references cited in the text must be listed at the end of the paper, in double-spaced typing and arranged in numerical order of citation in the text. References must be complete, including initial(s) of autor(s) cited, year of publication, title of paper referred to, journal, volume, and page numbers. Journal titles should be abbreviated according to Index Medicus, List of Journals Indexed, latest edition. For citations of books the following uniform sequence should be maintained: author(s) names and initials, year of publication, editor(s), complete title of book, publisher, place of publication, and page numbers. All references cited in the text must be listed in the reference list and vice versa. Manuscripts in preparation and submitted but not accepted as well as "personal communications" should not appear in the reference list, but should be cited as such at the appropriate place in the text. For examples of the forms of reference citations see a recent number of the journal. This journal should be abbreviated as "Clin. Neurol. Neurosurg.".

AudioSlides
The journal encourages authors to create an AudioSlides presentation with their published article. AudioSlides are brief, webinar-style presentations that are shown next to the online article on ScienceDirect. This gives authors the opportunity to summarize their research in their own words and to help readers understand what the paper is about. More information and examples are available at audioslides. Authors of this journal will automatically receive an invitation e-mail to create an AudioSlides presentation after acceptance of their paper.
