DO NOT include titles such as Dr., General Manager...  To avoid confusion, the family name must always be written as the last part of each author name (e.g. Josh A. Murray).\nName of Department and Institution where the work was done.\nFinancial support: in the form of grants, “quoting the number granted”, instruments or other. If no financial support received please write as follow: “none”.\nConflict of interest: if any please specify here, if no conflict of interest is identified please write “none”.\nConsent: Written consent for the publication of these cases and images taken from patients in the study and available upon request.\n*To note that many different types of case series exist. Our template is for formal case series which is the preferred type of manuscript at the International Journal of Clinical Research, but we accept informal case series as well.\nInformal Case Series\nUsually cases are selected for specific reasons like: best/worst cases, significant variations... and they are presented as:\nAbstract (structured into Background, Case Presentations, Discussion, Conclusion)\nIntroduction\nCase Presentations (each case is presented as a short case description, similar to a case report with omission of details; refer to the case report template)\nCase 1\nCase 2\nCase 3, etc.\nDiscussion (cases are compared to one another, related to the current literature, implications of the findings, teaching points and what changes in clinical practice this might engender)\nConclusion\n2. Formal Case Series\nUsually cases are selected based on selection criteria that include all cases of a specific type and are presented more like a cohort study rather than resembling separate case reports. The format is introduction methods, results, and discussion/conclusions. Details are developed below.\nAbstract\nBackground:  This is where you describe what prompted the case series and why it was written. Briefly summarize the relevant information and unified theme of the case series, WITHOUT CITATIONS. Kindly note that the use of the “Times New Roman” font with a 12-point typeface, 1.5 line spacing and a 2.5 cm margin (1 inch) from all borders of the page must be maintained, in accordance with the Uniform Requirements for Manuscripts Submitted to Biomedical Journals.\nMethods: What was done? How? When? And by whom? A case series usually samples patients with a specific outcome or exposure. In this section, you will describe the method used, for example, patients with a known disease undergoing a specific surgical technique at a specific hospital by the same surgeon during a specific period of time. In such case, besides the selection criteria, the involved surgical technique will be described briefly.\nResults: In this section you will describe the findings usually in the form of statistical analysis.\nConclusion: Determine justifiable conclusions drawn from the study and what it adds to the literature, what is learned and what it means.\nKeywords: Specify the medical subheadings (MeSH keywords) and additional words related to the topic.\nIntroduction\nCitations in square brackets “[1]” may begin in this section of the manuscript. Kindly note that they should be numbered in the order in which they were cited; TIP: DO NOT do this manually, seek an automated web-based bibliography and database manager such as RefWorks, End","cbCairwYb6P906tp","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCairwYb6P906tp","docx",773547,"English","# Manuscript Submission Setup\n## Title and Author Information\n## Corresponding Author Details\n## Financial Support, Conflict of Interest, and Consent\n# Case Series Types\n## Informal Case Series\n## Formal Case Series\n# Formal Case Series Structure\n## Abstract\n## Keywords\n## Introduction\n## Methods\n## Results\n## Conclusion\n## Citations","[{\"question\":\"What information must be included for authors and affiliations in the case series template?\",\"answer\":\"Include the first author’s first and family name plus affiliation details, then list second and third authors with their affiliations.
