Author Guidelines
Please note that beginning with volume year 2020, Obesity Reviews is available online only.
Manuscript Format
Reviews must be written in English and are subjected to editorial and peer review. Published articles may be of any length but are recommended to be of approximately 10 printed pages in extent including references. (For guidance purposes, 10 typeset pages equates to approximately 8,300 words; text should be reduced if figures/tables are included to stay within the 10 printed page limit). Thus, during the revision process, authors may need to reduce the length of their articles. Alternatively, authors unable to do this will pay a page charge of £85.00 for each additional printed page beyond 10 pages (including tables and figures).
Full details and guidance on the preparation of all material (text, tables and figures) can be found here.
Possible comments and suggestions of the editor may be sent to the author(s), who authorise(s) the publication of the article in the revised form. Proof reading will be reduced to a minimum.
Article Preparation Support
Wiley Editing Services offers expert help with English Language Editing, as well as translation, manuscript formatting, figure illustration, figure formatting, and graphical abstract design – so you can submit your manuscript with confidence. Also, check out our resources for Preparing Your Article for general guidance about writing and preparing your manuscript.
General advice about the presentation of manuscripts:
All pages should be numbered and use double-spacing.
The name and address and telephone and fax numbers of the author to whom correspondence and proofs should be sent should be included on the title page and the covering letter.
Do not use abbreviations.
All scientific units should be expressed in SI units.
Authors should use person first language: e.g., "individuals with obesity" rather than "obese individuals". See http://www.obesityaction.org/weight-bias-and-stigma/people-first-language-for-obesity for further information.
A copy of the manuscript should be kept by the authors for reference.
An acknowledgement of receipt of the manuscript will be sent by the Journal.
Title Page
The title page should contain: (1) the title of the article, (2) the name of each author (first name and surname preferred), (3) the name of the department(s) and institution(s) to which the authors belong, (4) three to four key words, (5) a running title, (6) acknowledgements, (7) address of corresponding author and e-mail address, (8) potential conflicts of interest.
Main Text
Review articles should be divided into: (1) abstract (about 200 words), (2) introduction, (3) text subdivided in paragraphs, (4) conclusion or discussion. Authors are particularly encouraged to use tables, diagrams and figures. Personal conclusions and practical applications are welcome.
Abbreviations
Abbreviations should be explained at the beginning of the manuscript and listed in the order in which they appear. Avoid abbreviations in the title and in the abstract.
Drug Names
Generic names should, in general, be used. If an author so desires, brand names may be inserted in parentheses.
References
AMA Reference items are listed numerically in the order they are cited in the text. Please include up to 6 authors. For more than six, provide the names of the first three authors and then add et al. If there is no author, start with the title. Periodicals (journals, magazines, and newspapers) should have abbreviated titles; to check for the proper abbreviation, search for the Journal Title through LocatorPlus at the National Library of Medicine website. Please refer to a quick guide on AMA here. References are included in the 10 page limit.
Tables
Type each table on a separate page; number tables consecutively and supply a brief title for each. Each table should have a caption. Cite each table in the text in consecutive order, using Arabic numbers.
Figures
Please submit vector graphics (e.g. line artwork) in Encapsulated Postscript Format (EPS), and bitmap files (e.g. half-tones) in Tagged Image File Format (TIFF). Detailed guidance on preparing digital illustrations is available via Wiley-Blackwell Author Services at http://olabout.wiley.com/WileyCDA/Section/id-828011.html. Letters, numbers and symbols should be clear and even throughout, and of sufficient size so that when reduced for publication the item will still be legible; titles and detailed explanations should be included in the legends for illustrations, not in the illustrations themselves. Cite each figure in the text in consecutive order.
If the manuscript contains a figure, table or quoted text that has been previously published, written permission to reproduce the material must be obtained from the copyright holder and submitted along with the manuscript. For permissions related to content previously published in Obesity Reviews, authors should request permission via the Request Permissions option available under Tools on the article page. Legends for illustrations should be typed on a separate page of the main manuscript, with Arabic numbers corresponding to the illustrations. When symbols, arrows, numbers or letters are used to identify parts of the illustrations, explain each one in the legend. Explain the internal scale and identify the method of staining in photomicrographs.
Table and Figure Legends
Legends for tables and figures should be typed on a separate page following on from the main text, with Arabic numbers corresponding to the numbers assigned to the matching figure or table (Table 1: …, Table 2: …, Figure 1: … etc.). When symbols, arrows, numbers or letters are used to identify parts of the illustrations, explain each one in the legend. Explain the internal scale and identify the method of staining in photomicrographs.
Supporting Information
Online Supporting Information can include additional explanatory notes, data sets, lists, figures or tables that will not be published in the print edition of the journal and which are ancillary to, rather than central to, the article. Supporting Information must be approved by the Editor and should be supplied as a single PDF file headed by the title of the paper and the authors' names, addresses and contact information. Supporting Information will be published exactly as supplied and it is the author's responsibility to ensure that the material is logically laid out, adequately described, and in a format accessible to readers. Animations and other moving images or sound files in standard formats must be supplied as separate files. Figures and tables in Supporting Information should be referred to in the main text and labelled Fig. S1, Fig. S2 or Table S1, etc., in the order cited. Full guidelines and information on acceptable file formats may be found at http://authorservices.wiley.com/bauthor/suppmat.asp.
Graphical Abstracts (optional)
Obesity Reviews encourages the submission of graphical abstracts in order to draw more attention to your research. The graphical abstract should summarize your article in a concise, visual form. We recommend avoiding graphs and other figures with fine detail due to the relatively small size of this image.
Submit a figure which:
is in .tiff or .eps file formats;
is within the dimensions of 50mm x 60mm; and
has a minimum resolution of 300 dpi.
Want help? Draw readers into your research with Wiley's Graphical Abstract Design service. Our illustrators convert your article into a visually engaging and scientifically precise graphical abstract that clearly communicates your findings – enhancing the discoverability of your work.
Submission
All reviews (in English) should be submitted online at http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/obr. Full instructions, a user ID and password are available at the site. Please supply your entire manuscript in electronic format, along with any required forms (see below), a covering letter, and the email address of each listed author.
All listed authors must complete an ICMJE COI disclosure form. The submitting author must collect all of these forms and each completed form must be scanned and submitted along with the manuscript. A Conflicts of Interest Statement including all of the information disclosed on the forms must be included in the manuscript, in a section placed after the discussion and before the acknowledgements.
Technical support for submission can be obtained by e-mailing: support@scholarone.com or by telephoning 1 434 817 2040 ext 167.

Author Name Changes After Publication
In cases where authors wish to change their name following publication, Wiley will update and republish the paper and redeliver the updated metadata to indexing services. Our editorial and production teams will use discretion in recognizing that name changes may be of a sensitive and private nature for various reasons including (but not limited to) alignment with gender identity, or as a result of marriage, divorce, or religious conversion. Accordingly, to protect the author’s privacy, we will not publish a correction notice to the paper, and we will not notify co-authors of the change. Authors should contact the Editorial Office with their name change request.
Online production tracking
Wiley-Blackwell's Author Services enables authors to track their article - once it has been accepted - through the production process to publication online and in print. Authors can check the status of their articles online and choose to receive automated e-mails at key stages of production. The author will receive an e-mail with a unique link that enables them to register and have their article automatically added to the system. Please ensure that a complete e-mail address is provided when submitting the manuscript. Visit http://authorservices.wiley.com/bauthor for more details on online production tracking and for a wealth of resources including FAQs and tips on article preparation, submission and more.
Proofs
The corresponding author will receive an email alert containing a link to a web site. A working e-mail address must therefore be provided for the corresponding author. The proof can be downloaded as a PDF (portable document format) file from this site. Acrobat Reader will be required in order to read this file. The software can be downloaded (free of charge) from the following web site:
http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html
This will enable the file to be opened, read on screen and printed out in order for any corrections to be added. Further instructions will be sent with the proof. Hardcopy proofs will be posted if no e-mail address is available. Excessive changes made by the author in the proofs, excluding typesetting errors, will be charged separately.
Article Promotion Support
Wiley Editing Services offers professional video, design, and writing services to create shareable video abstracts, infographics, conference posters, lay summaries, and research news stories for your research – so you can help your research get the attention it deserves.
Video Abstracts
Authors are invited to consider submitting video abstracts. Wiley's Video Creation Service helps you turn your findings into an engaging and accessible video overview that’s perfect for sharing on websites and social media – extending the reach and visibility of your research.
Offprints
PDF offprints will be available for download through Author Services once the paper has been published in print. Paper offprints may be ordered online. The cost is higher if the order arrives too late for the main print run. Offprints are normally despatched within three weeks of publication of the issue in which the paper appears. Please contact the Publishers if offprints do not arrive: however, please note that offprints are sent surface mail, so overseas orders may take up to six weeks to arrive.
Please note that Wiley-Blackwell will dispose of all hardcopy or electronic material submitted 2 months after publication.
