Welcome to The Journal of International Medical Research 
A leading international journal for rapid publication of original medical, pre-clinical and clinical research, reviews, preliminary and pilot studies on a page charge basis. Symposium proceedings, summaries of presentations or collections of medical, pre-clinical or clinical data on a specific topic are welcome for publication as Supplements. Submitted manuscripts must meet the journal’s scientific and editorial submission criteria. Before submitting your manuscript and to facilitate the Peer Review process, please ensure that you have carefully considered and answered the questions in the Journal Submission Criteria in terms of assessing whether your manuscript is suitable for submission to the journal. Please include your answers with your manuscript. Please also ensure that you have followed the Notes for Contributors in preparing your manuscript. Case Reports should be of general and not just specialist interest, and must include a systematic literature search, including Medline. Rarity is not an appropriate criterion for acceptance; it may indicate that the paper would be more appropriate for a specialist publication. Most Case Reports that are submitted to the journal are rejected. Retrospective case record analyses are discouraged and unlikely to be accepted. Small-scale, localized and pilot studies are unlikely to be accepted. Replication in a local sample is not a reason for acceptance – the rationale for the study must be demonstrated. Publication is on-line and in print six times a year on a page charge basis. Indexed and abstracted by Current Contents/Clinical Practice, Index Medicus, Medline/EMBASE, British Medicine, Chemical Abstracts, Excerpta Medica, CABS, Science Citation Index and other abstracting and data retrieval systems.
