Visual Abstract
UPIS strongly encourages the submission of Visual Abstracts upon submission of a manuscript. The presence and quality of Visual Abstracts that are attached to papers will be considered in the peer review process, but are not mandatory. The VAs will not be published within the article but will be used in social media promotion after the article has published. The Editorial Board reserves the right to determine the use and timing of the visual abstract.
A Visual Abstract summarizes the main features of the work. This could either be the concluding figure from the article or a figure that is specially designed for the purpose which captures the content of the article for readers at a single glance.
EDITORIAL GUIDELINES FOR VISUAL ABSTRACTS
A Visual Abstract should be a one-image file. For ease of browsing, the Visual Abstract should have a clear start and end, preferably "reading" from top to bottom or left to right. Try to reduce distracting elements as much as possible.
Image size: Please provide an image of 820 x 285 pixels (hxw) using a minimum resolution of 72 dpi.
Font: Please use Minion Pro, Arial or Times New Roman font.
Colors: Regarding image background or others elements (i.e. tables, charts, icons, images) we encourage the use one or a mix of the following colors that are related to the visual identity of Updates in Surgery: white (#fff), black (#000), blue (#003366), red (#993333), yellow (#f1d282).
