Manuscript preparation
Please type all pages with single spacing and wide margins on one side of the paper. Title page, abstract, tables, legends to figures and reference list should each be provided on separate pages of the manuscript.
Use a normal, plain font (e.g., 12-point Times New Roman) for text. The text should be in single-column format. Number the pages. Keep the layout of the text as simple as possible. In particular, do not use the options to justify text or to hyphenate words. However, do use bold face, italics, subscripts, superscripts etc. Do not embed ‘graphically designed’ equations or tables, but prepare these using the facility in Word or as a separate file in Excel. When preparing tables, if you are using a table grid, use only one grid for each individual table and not a grid for each row. Do not prepare tables in Powerpoint. Do not import the figures into the text file but, instead, indicate their approximate locations directly on the manuscript.
To avoid unnecessary errors you are strongly advised to use the spellchecker.
The title page should include: the title, the name(s) and affiliation(s) of the author(s), an address for correspondence, and telephone numbers for editorial queries. Original and review articles should include an Abstract (a single paragraph) of no more than 250 words and 3-6 key words for abstracting and indexing purposes.
Please do not split the article into separate files (title page as one file, text as another, etc.). Do not allow your computer to introduce word splits and do not use a ‘justified’ layout. Please adhere strictly to the general instructions on style/arrangement and, in particular, the reference style of the journal. It is very important that you save your file in the standard format for the program you are using (Microsoft Word docx format or doc format). Please write your text in good English (American or British usage is accepted, but not a mixture of these).

1. Title page
The title page should be paginated as page 1 of the manuscript. Title of article: Concise and informative. Titles are often used in information-retrieval systems. Avoid abbreviations and formulae where possible.
Author names and affiliations: The title page should include the names and addresses of authors. Generally for uniformity author names should be written as first name, middle name initial followed by family name, e.g. James Z. Miller. Present the authors’ affiliation addresses (where the actual work was done) below the names. Indicate all affiliations with a lower-case superscript letter immediately after the author’s name and in front of the appropriate address. Provide the full postal address of each affiliation, including the country name.
2. Abstract
The abstract will be printed at the beginning of the paper. A concise and factual abstract is required (maximum length 250 words). The abstract should state briefly the purpose of the research, the principal results and major conclusions. Do not cite references in the abstract. Non-standard or uncommon abbreviations should be avoided in the abstract, but if essential they must be defined at their first mention in the abstract itself. The abstract must be organized under the following subject headings: Background: This must indicate why the study was performed, and what question it was intended to answer. Methods: This should state in outline what methods were used. Results: The main results relevant to the question addressed should be summarised. Conclusions: This should summarize the main inferences that follow from the results. Keywords. Immediately after the abstract, provide a maximum of 6 keywords. Be sparing with abbreviations: only abbreviations firmly established in the field may be eligible. Define abbreviations that are not standard in this field at their first occurrence in the article: in the abstract but also in the main text after it.
3. Introduction
The introduction should give a short and clear account of the background of the problem and state the objectives of the work. Only previous work that has a direct bearing on the present problem should be cited.
4. Methods
The methods must be described in sufficient detail to allow the experiments to be interpreted and repeated by an experienced investigator. Where published methods are used, references should be given, together with a brief outline. The statistical tool used to analyze the data should be mentioned. The description of drugs, chemicals and other materials should include the names and brief address of the relevant suppliers. Drug names should be International Non-proprietary Names (INN). If a drug has no INN its full chemical name must be used. All procedures involving experimental animals or human subjects must accompany a statement on ethical approval from appropriate ethics committee.
Reports of randomized, controlled trials should follow the recommendations of the Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) statement.

5. Results
Present your results in a logical sequence in the text, tables, and figures, giving the main or most important findings first. Do not repeat in the text all the data in the tables or figures; emphasize or summarize only important observations.
6. Discussion and Conclusions
The purpose of the discussion is to present a brief and pertinent interpretation of the results against the background of existing knowledge. Any assumptions on which conclusions are based must be stated clearly. The main conclusions should be conveyed in a final paragraph with a clear statement of how the study advances knowledge and understanding in the field.

All contributors who do not meet the criteria for authorship as defined above should be listed in an acknowledgements section. Examples of those who might be acknowledged include a person who provided purely technical help, writing assistance, or a department chair who provided only general support. Authors should disclose whether they had any writing assistance and identify the entity that paid for this assistance.

10. Tables
Each table should be given on a separate page, paginated as part of the paper. Tables should be numbered consecutively with Arabic numerals and the number should be followed by a brief descriptive caption, occupying not more than two lines, at the head of the table (e.g. Table 1: Effect of drug on blood pressure). Tables should normally be self-explanatory, with necessary descriptions provided underneath the table. Each column should have a heading and the units of measurement should be given in parentheses in the heading. Footnotes to tables should be indicated by superscript lower-case letters (or asterisks for significance values and other statistical data) and included beneath the table body.
11. Figures and Legends
Authors are encouraged to use color to enhance the impact and clarity of figures. There is no charge for using color in International Journal of Community Medicine and Public Health. For figures supplied in parts, please use A, B, C, etc. to label the panels or parts of the figure. Name your figure files with Figure and the figure number, e.g., Figure 1: Liver enzyme levels. For the best quality final product, it is highly recommended that you submit all of your artwork photographs, line drawings, etc. – in an electronic format. Computer prepared images must be at a minimum of 300 dpi at the final publication size. Lower resolution will result in pixilation and poor quality images. These should be submitted as JPEG or TIFF.
Figure legends should be typed on a separate page of the main manuscript document. Legends should explain the figures in sufficient detail that, whenever possible, they can be understood without reference to the text. Legends, captions and labels should be consistent with terminology or nomenclature used in the text.
