*Corresponding author: details of the lead author with complete mailing and e-mail addresses (consisting of full name, name of institution, mailing address, telephone number, fax number and email address).

Abstract: a concise (maximum 250 words), one-paragraph description in English with single space formatting. Footnotes, references, and abbreviations are not to be included in the abstract. The Abstract in Original articles should consist of a single paragraph containing Background:, Purpose:, Methods:, Results: and Conclusion.

Keywords: 3-5 words and/or a phrase must be provided below the abstract. Key standard scientific phrases or words must be provided in English. Each word/phrase in the keywords section should be separated by a semicolon (;).

Introduction: background to the problem, formulation and purpose of the work, case or review and prospects for future research. The rationale of the study is stated together with the main problem under investigation, any resulting findings and, finally, the references consulted.

Materials and Methods: a clear description of materials consulted, experiments conducted and methods applied. These are deemed necessary to facilitate duplication of the research and re-assessment of its validity. Reference should be made to any novel methods employed. Research ethics relating to the use of animal, living cells and/or human subjects must also be outlined in accordance with academic convention.

Results: presented accurately and concisely in a logical sequence with the minimum number of tables and illustrations necessary to summarize the most important observations. Undue repetition of text and tables should be avoided. Tables must be presented horizontally (without vertical line separation) to facilitate understanding of their content. Calculation results should be reported in SI units. Mathematical Equations should be clearly expressed. Mathematical symbols unavailable on computer keyboards may be hand-written using a soft lead pencil. Decimal numbers should be identifiable by the appropriate location of a decimal point (.). Tables, illustrations, and photographs should be cited consecutively within, but presented separately to, the manuscript text. Titles and detailed explanations of figures should appear in the legends corresponding to illustrations (figures, graphs) rather than within the illustrations themselves. All non-standard abbreviations used must be explained in the footnotes.

Discussion: interprets the meaning of the investigation results without repeating them. It explains how the reported results can address problems, differences and inequalities highlighted in previous studies as well as exploring development opportunities. This section should include conclusions arising from the reported research case and relevant suggestions for further studies. The discussion must correspond to the results and begin with a brief summary of the main scientific findings (not experimental results). The following components should be covered in the discussion:

• How results relate to the original question or objectives outlined in the introduction (what/how?).
• Whether a scientific interpretation is provided for each result or finding presented (why?).
• The consistency, or otherwise, of the results with those reported by other investigators (what else?).
• Any differences to the results produced by other investigators.

Acknowledgements: Personal acknowledgements should be limited to appropriately qualified and experienced individuals providing technical, financial or material contributions to the paper. General support from the department chairperson should also be acknowledged.

References: arranged according to the Vancouver superscript no et al. style. Researchers are recommended to use a reference management application (e.g. Mendeley, Endnote, Zotero, etc.). References must be numbered consecutively, following the order in which they are mentioned in the text and listed at the end of the text in numerical, rather than alphabetical, order. References contained in text, tables, and legends should be identified by means of Arabic numerals in superscript font. References must be valid, published within the previous ten years and contain at least 70% primary references (journals, books and patent documents). Unpublished sources, such as manuscripts in preparation and personal communication, are not acceptable as references. Only those sources cited in the text should appear in the reference list. The names of authors must be written in a consistent manner throughout the text. The numbers and volumes of journals must be cited, with edition, publisher, city and page numbers of textbooks also included. References to downloaded internet sources must include the time of access and web address. Any abbreviations of journal titles must comply with dental and medical index conventions. All original articles should include at least 15 references.
