Author contributions:

For transparency, we require corresponding authors to provide co-author contributions to the manuscript using the relevant CRediT roles. The CRediT taxonomy includes 14 different roles describing each contributor’s specific contribution to the scholarly output. The roles are:

Conceptualization; Data curation; Formal analysis; Funding acquisition; Investigation; Methodology; Project administration; Resources; Software; Supervision; Validation; Visualization; Roles/Writing - original draft; and Writing - review & editing. Note that not all roles may apply to every manuscript, and authors may have contributed through multiple roles. More details and an example.

The Editorial Process

All manuscripts submitted to the GJMHR undergo a thorough peer review process to determine their suitability for publication. It is important for authors to certify in the covering letter that this manuscript has not been submitted to any other journal simultaneously.

Manuscripts undergo an initial screening at the editorial office to determine their suitability for publication. Appropriate candidates are forwarded to 2-3 technical reviewers and a statistical expert, as required. The journal adheres to a double-blind peer review process.

Manuscripts that pass the peer review process undergo thorough editing before they are published.

All aspects of the manuscript submission process, including peer review, final decision communication, and proof sending, are conducted through our efficient online system.

Type of Manuscripts

1. Original Research Articles

Please ensure that the article does not exceed a length of 2500 words, excluding the Abstract and References sections. Original research articles should include a structured abstract with four subheadings, limited to a maximum of 250 words:

(i) Background & objectives, (ii) Methods, (iii) Results, and (iv) Interpretation & conclusions, followed by 5-8 key words arranged alphabetically. For the main article, it is recommended to arrange the sections in the following order: Introduction, Material & Methods, Results, Discussion, Acknowledgment (if applicable), Conflicts of Interest, and References. Obtaining permission from the Ethics Committee/Institutional Review Board (IRB) is a crucial requirement for all studies involving human subjects and animals. It is important to include this information in the Material & Methods section. Registration of clinical trials is a requirement, and it is important to include the registration number/CTR number.

2. Review Articles

The GJMHR publishes a range of review articles, such as rapid, mapping, scoping, and more. Articles written by scientists or experts who have published high-quality original research in the specific area will be taken into consideration. For the article, it would be ideal to have a word count of around 4000 words, excluding the Abstract and References. It's important to keep the number of references to a maximum of 100, ensuring they are recent and relevant. Additionally, please provide a clear methodology that outlines the search strategy used. Lastly, include an unstructured abstract of approximately 250 words. Tables and Figures can be included as needed. Prior to reproducing a published Table/Figure, it is important to obtain copyright permission from the copyright holder.

3. Systematic Reviews (Including Meta-analysis)

These articles in this section will provide a thorough evaluation of various studies on significant clinical and public health topics. The goal is to obtain an impartial quantitative estimate of the overall impact of an intervention or variable on a specific outcome. The emphasis could be on cause, diagnosis, prognosis, therapy, prevention, and other related aspects. These articles would be meticulously researched, providing a comprehensive and unbiased perspective. It would be beneficial to include a structured abstract. Systematic reviews typically have a word limit of 2500 and should include a limited number of Tables/Figures. These will undergo a thorough peer review process before being published.

4. Case Series/ Case Report/ Short Paper

If you have a research manuscript with a well-defined study design and sample size, but limited parameters analysed, you can submit it as a Short Paper. These documents will consist of approximately 2000 words and include a well-organized abstract that combines the Results and Discussion sections. A Research Correspondence can take the form of either a preliminary/pilot study or a post-implicative report, without including an abstract. If you have preliminary investigative data with limited methodology and sample size, but it has important clinical implications, you can submit it as a Research Correspondence. This would consist of approximately 1000-1500 words and may include a Table and/or a Figure.

The author's specific contribution should be acknowledged on the Title page.

2. Article Page

Please submit your manuscripts online through the website: https://www.gjmhr.com. New users are required to register on this site. Registration is required, but it's completely free. Once authors have registered, they can easily stay updated on their articles by simply logging into the site with their unique user name and password. Submitting, processing, and publishing articles does not require any payment from authors. It is important to present manuscripts in a clear and organized manner, with a focus on conciseness and neatness. It is important to ensure that pages are numbered consecutively and that the contents are arranged in the following order:

Title:
The title of the article should be brief, continuous (no broken or hyphenated titles), and descriptive and informational enough to be effective in indexing and information retrieval. A short running title not exceeding 6-7 words must also be provided. Abstract &

Key words:
It is recommended that all manuscripts, excluding reviews article, include a structured abstract of approximately 250 words. The abstract should be organized with subheadings for Background & objectives, Methods, Results, and Interpretation & conclusions. The abstract should be concise and provide an overview of the paper's scope and important findings. The focus should be on highlighting the main findings and conclusions, allowing abstracting services to use it as is. It is important to avoid including conclusions and recommendations in the Abstract that are not supported by the text of the articles. A set of suitable key words (4-8 in number) arranged alphabetically should also be provided.

Introduction:
The introduction should be concise and clearly outline the paper's scope. Reviewing the literature should focus solely on the reasons for conducting the current study and provide only the most crucial background information. It is important to ensure that the objective of the study is clearly stated and justified at the end of this section.

Material & Methods:
It is important to clearly mention the nomenclature, source of material and equipment used, along with the manufacturers' details in parenthesis. It is important to clearly state the procedures so that other workers can easily replicate the results, if needed. It is important to provide thorough descriptions of new methods, including any limitations they may have. When discussing established methods, it is important to provide authentic references and, if applicable, explain any significant deviations and the reasons behind adopting them. When reporting experiments on human subjects and animals, it is important to clearly state that the procedures followed adhere to the ethical standards set by the national bodies or organizations of the respective country. When conducting research in India involving human subjects, it is important to follow the ICMR's Ethical guidelines for biomedical research on human participants (2017). When conducting experiments on laboratory animals, it is important to adhere to the guidelines set by reputable organizations such as the ICMR, INSA, or CPCSEA. These guidelines provide valuable instructions on the proper care and use of animals in scientific research. It is essential to provide sufficient information regarding the care and use of laboratory animals, including details on their source, strain, age, sex, housing, and nutrition, among other factors. It is important to ensure that the necessary certification is included when submitting manuscripts. It is essential to provide accurate and detailed information about the drugs and chemicals used, including their generic names, dosages, and routes of administration.

Study Design:
It is important to clearly mention the selection process for observational or experimental participants, which includes patients or laboratory animals, as well as controls. This should also include information about whether the selection was random or consecutive. Additionally, the basis for calculating the sample size should be provided, along with eligibility and exclusion criteria, and a description of the source population.

Period (with month and year) and place of the study should be clearly stated.

Contributors may consult the following Guidelines for specific study designs:

Clinical trials study:
It is essential for all clinical trials to be registered in a Primary Clinical Trial Registry and for the Registration number to be provided under Material & Methods. This ensures the transparency and credibility of the studies based on clinical trials. Articles that present results of randomized clinical trials should include comprehensive information about key study elements. This includes details about the study protocol, how interventions were assigned (such as methods of randomization and concealment of treatment group allocation), and the method of masking (also known as blinding). The CONSORT Statement (http://www.consort-statement.org/) provides guidelines for reporting these elements. It is important to note that the study protocol was approved by the institutional/local ethics committee and written consent was obtained from the participants.

It is important to mention the statistical analysis conducted and the statistical significance of the findings, when applicable. Unless it is essential for a clear understanding of the article, it may be best to avoid providing a detailed description of statistical treatment. When it comes to articles that heavily rely on statistical considerations, it is important to provide detailed information, especially when using new or uncommon methods. Authors should provide authentic references for standard and routine statistical methods used.

Results:
It is important to ensure that the data is organized in a consistent and logical manner to enhance the clarity and coherence of the report. It is important to avoid duplicating data from Tables and Figures in the text. It is crucial to highlight or condense only the significant observations. The same data should not be presented both in tabular and graphic forms. It is important to note that the interpretation of the data should be reserved for the Discussion section, rather than being included in the Results section.

Discussion:
The discussion should focus on interpreting the results, avoiding repetition of information already covered in the Results section. It is important to establish connections between new findings and existing knowledge, while also incorporating logical deductions. It is important to address any weaknesses, limitations, or gaps in the study.

The conclusions are aligned with the goals of the study. However, it is crucial to avoid making unqualified statements or drawing conclusions that are not fully supported by the data. Avoid claiming priority on ongoing work. It is important to clearly identify any hypotheses that are warranted. Recommendations should only be included in the Discussion if they are absolutely necessary and relevant. It would be ideal to conclude this section with a final remark.

Acknowledgement:
Acknowledgement should be concise and limited to particular scientific/technical support rather than normal departmental facilities and encouragement or aid with paper preparation (including typing or secretarial assistance).

Financial support & Sponsorship:
Funding support and/or sponsorship received from national or international funding agencies should be acknowledged.
