Authorship Guidelines
Types of articles
In each issue, we publish articles under certain types/
sections. The types of articles we publish are as follows:
• Editorials
• Original research/studies
• Audits
• Case notes
• Review articles
• Medical education
• StudentKUMJ
• Letters to the editor
Beside the regular types of articles we also sometimes
publish articles under categories like Invited Articles (See
below for details of each type), Proceedings/ Declaration
of Conferences/Congress, Updates, Supplements, etc. The
types are determined by the title, aim(s) and objective(s),
and most importantly the content of the manuscript.
We also require that the author clearly specifies the type
of article s/he is submitting. However, the final decision
under which category the article is published rests on the
decision of the editorial board. In such case, the author will
be duly informed regarding the decision. The author will
have the right to withdraw the article if s/he chooses, but
must do so within the specified time.
