Other topics include physical therapy/occupational therapy, nutrition, current events in the evolving healthcare debate, and reports on the newest computer software for diagnostics and treatment.The goal of the Journal of Burn Care & Research is to provide the latest information on advances in burn prevention, research, education, delivery of acute care, and research to all members of the burn care team. Authors are invited to submit original articles on any aspect of burn care or rehabilitation for publication.
Authors are required to submit manuscripts online through the Journal's web site.
Editorial Policies
Peer Review
Journal of Burn Care & Research operates a double-blind peer review process in which the authors and reviewers are anonymous. All reviews will be considered confidential and will not be made publicly available without the express permission of the manuscript’s authors (which should be requested through the Editorial Office) and the journal’s Editor-in-Chief.
Disclaimer
Views expressed in the Journal represent the opinions of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the official policy of the institution with which the author is affiliated, the American Burn Association, the Editor-in-Chief, or the publisher, Oxford University Press. All the aforementioned disclaim any responsibility or liability for such material. None of the aforementioned parties guarantees, warrants, or endorses any product or service advertised in this publication, neither do they guarantee any claim made by the manufacturer of such a product or service.
Human Subjects
If experimental work involving human subjects is presented, it should be indicated in the manuscript that the principles outlined in the Declaration of Helsinki were followed and that informed consent was obtained. A copy of the consent form should be forwarded to the Editorial Office (jbcr@ameriburn.org) upon submission of the manuscript to Editorial Manager. Releases with original signatures also must be mailed to the editorial office. Patients' names, initials, or hospital numbers should not be used in the text or in illustrative material.
Patient Anonymity and Informed Consent
It is the author’s responsibility to ensure that a patient’s anonymity be carefully protected and to verify that any experimental investigation with human subjects reported in the manuscript was performed with informed consent and following all the guidelines for experimental investigation with human subjects required by the institution(s) with which all the authors are affiliated. A signed release is required for any photograph of a recognizable subject and must be submitted with the manuscript.
Animal Subjects
For reporting experiments animals, the Methods section should state whether the institution's or a national research council's guide for or any national law on the care and use of laboratory animals was followed. (See International Committee of Medical Journal Editors [ICMJE]. Uniform Requirements for Manuscripts Submitted to Biomedical Journals. Ann Intern Med 1997; 126:36-47.)
Permissions
Authors must submit written permission from the copyright owner (usually the publisher) to use direct quotations, tables, or illustrations. Any permissions fees that might be required by the copyright owner are the responsibility of the authors requesting use of the borrowed material, not the responsibility of Oxford University Press. A signed release is required for any photograph of a recognizable subject, as noted above.
Conflicts of Interest
Authors must state all possible conflicts of interest in the manuscript, including financial, consultant, institutional, and other relationships that might lead to bias or a conflict of interest. If there is no conflict of interest, this should also be explicitly stated as none declared. All sources of funding should be acknowledged in the manuscript. All relevant conflicts of interest and sources of funding should be included on the title page of the manuscript with the heading “Conflicts of Interest and Source of Funding.”
For example:
Conflicts of Interest and Source of Funding: “Author A” has received honoraria from “Company 1.” “Author B” is currently receiving a grant (#12345) from “Organization Y” and is on the speaker’s bureau for “Organization X” – the CME organizers for Company 1. For the remaining authors none aredeclared.
Copyright
Each author must complete and submit the journal's copyright transfer agreement, which includes a section on the disclosure of potential conflicts of interest based on the recommendations of the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors, "Uniform Requirements for Manuscripts Submitted to Biomedical Journals" (www.icmje.org/update.html).
A copy of the form is made available to the submitting author within the Editorial Manager submission process. Co-authors will automatically receive an Email with instructions on completing the form upon submission.
In accordance with the Copyright Act of 1976, all manuscripts must be accompanied by the following statement, signed by all authors: "The undersigned authors transfer all copyright ownership of the manuscript [title of article] to the American Burn Association in the event the work is published. The undersigned authors warrant that the article is original, does not infringe on any copyright or proprietary right of any third party, is not under consideration by another journal, and has not been previously published. The final manuscript has been read, and each author’s contribution has been approved by the appropriate author." Authors will be consulted, when possible, regarding republication of their material.
Accepted manuscripts become the full property of the American Burn Association and may not be published elsewhere without the written consent of the publisher. Each author must complete and submit the journal's copyright transfer agreement, which includes a section on the disclosure of potential conflicts of interest based on the recommendations of the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors, "Uniform Requirements for Manuscripts Submitted to Biomedical Journals" (www.icmje.org/update.html).
Compliance with NIH and Other Research Funding Agency Accessibility Requirements: A number of research funding agencies now require or request authors to submit the post-print (the article after peer review and acceptance but not the final published article) to a repository that is accessible online by all without charge. As a service to our authors, Oxford University Press will identify to the National Library of Medicine (NLM) articles that require deposit and will transmit the post-print of an article based on research funded in whole or in part by the National Institutes of Health, Wellcome Trust, Howard Hughes Medical Institute, or other funding agencies to PubMed Central. The revised Copyright Transfer Agreement provides the mechanism.
Availability of Data and Materials
Where ethically feasible, Journal of Burn Care & Research strongly encourages authors to make all data and software code on which the conclusions of the paper rely available to readers. We suggest that data be presented in the main manuscript or additional supporting files, or deposited in a public repository whenever possible. For information on general repositories for all data types, and a list of recommended repositories by subject area, please see Choosing where to archive your data.
Data Citation
Journal of Burn Care & Research supports the Force 11 Data Citation Principles and requires that all publicly available datasets be fully referenced in the reference list with an accession number or unique identifier such as a digital object identifier (DOI). Data citations should include the minimum information recommended by DataCite:
[dataset]* Authors, Year, Title, Publisher (repository or archive name), Identifier
*The inclusion of the [dataset] tag at the beginning of the citation helps us to correctly identify and tag the citation. This tag will be removed from the citation published in the reference list.
Preprint Policy
Authors retain the right to make an Author’s Original Version (preprint) available through various channels, and this does not prevent submission to the journal. For further information see our Online Licensing, Copyright and Permissions policies. If accepted, the authors are required to update the status of any preprint, including your published paper’s DOI, as described on our Author Self-Archiving policy page.
Open Access
Journal of Burn Care & Research offers the option of publishing under either a standard licence or an open access licence. Please note that some funders require open access publication as a condition of funding. If you are unsure whether you are required to publish open access, please do clarify any such requirements with your funder or institution.
Should you wish to publish your article open access, you should select your choice of open access licence in our online system after your article has been accepted for publication. You will need to pay an open access charge to publish under an open access licence.
Details of the open access licences and open access charges.
OUP has a growing number of Read and Publish agreements with institutions and consortia which provide funding for open access publishing. This means authors from participating institutions can publish open access, and the institution may pay the charge. Find out if your institution is participating.
Please note that you may be eligible for a discount to the open access charge based on society membership. Authors may be asked to prove eligibility for the member discount.
Third-Party Open Access Copyright
If you will be publishing your paper under an Open Access license but it contains material for which you do not have Open Access re-use permissions, please state this clearly by supplying the following credit line alongside the material:
Title of content
Author, Original publication, year of original publication, by permission of [rights holder]
Third-Party Copyright
In order to reproduce any third party material, including tables, figures, or images, in an article authors must obtain permission from the copyright holder and be compliant with any requirements the copyright holder may have pertaining to this reuse. When seeking to reproduce any kind of third party material authors should request the following:
non-exclusive rights to reproduce the material in the specified article and journal;
print and electronic rights, preferably for use in any form or medium;
the right to use the material for the life of the work; and
world-wide English-language rights.
It is particularly important to clear permission for use in both the print and online versions of the journal, and we are not able to accept permissions which carry a time limit because we retain journal articles as part of our online journal archive.
Further guidelines on clearing permissions are available.
