Manuscript Editing for Kansas Journal of Medicine Articles
The Kansas Journal of Medicine publishes original research, brief reports, quality improvement, journal club articles, reviews, and commentaries. Its coverage spans all aspects of clinical medicine, health care delivery, health policy, and medical education. The University of Kansas Medical Center publishes it online with KU Libraries, six issues a year, fully open access with no author fees. The journal is managed at the KU School of Medicine-Wichita.
Original Research runs up to 3,000 words, excluding title page, abstract, references, and keywords, with up to 75 references and five tables and figures combined. Other types include Brief Reports, Case Reports, KJM Journal Club articles with a trainee first author, Reviews, Commentaries, Images, and Letters. References follow the journal's numbered style based on ICMJE, with superscript numerals in consecutive order and PubMed journal abbreviations. Each reference carries a PMID, or a DOI when no PMID exists. Entries list all authors up to six and the first three, then et al., for seven or more. Tables follow the AMA Manual of Style, 11th edition. Original Research opens with a structured abstract of up to 250 words under bolded headings. Two to five MeSH keywords go after the reference section. Authors cite the matching EQUATOR checklist in the text. Review is double-blind after editor screening. Submissions go through the journal's Open Journal Systems site.
