Page 6 - Statistics Describe statistical methods with enough detail to enable a knowledgeable reader with access to the original data to verify the reported results. When possible, quantify findings and present them with appropriate indicators of measurement error or uncertainty (such as confidence intervals). Avoid sole reliance on statistical hypothesis testing, such as the use of P values, which fails to convey important quantitative information.
Page 6 - Figures should be numbered consecutively with Arabic numerals in order of mention in the text; each figure should have a descriptive legend. Legends should be typed together on a separate sheet, double-spaced. All illustrations should be in finished form ready for the engraver. A convenient size for drawings is 8Vz X 11 inches (21 X 27.5 cm).
Page 6 - This includes (eg) basic materials or principles, analytical techniques, instrumentation, data processing, statistical analyses of data, clinical investigations in which chemistry has played a major role, and experimental (laboratory animal) investigations of chemically oriented problems of human disease.
