Author Guidelines

INSTRUCTIONS FOR AUTHORS

(Updated: 2023, October 30th)

The scope of the IJHDR is to publish high-quality studies (clinical, experimental, reviews) about the biological/physicochemical/clinical effects of highly diluted substances, including homeopathic preparations. Hypotheses only are not included in the scope.

IJHDR will consider original submissions that have not been published in any medium or submitted for publication elsewhere. Submissions derived from a "pre-print" publication or presentations at scientific meetings may be considered for publication even when they have been included in proceedings; the author(s) must make an explicit statement in this regard. The "pre-print" statement must be mentioned as a subtitle.

In case authors need to use artificial intelligence (AI) technologies in the writing process, it will be allowed only to improve readability and language style.

IJHDR is entitled to make alterations in submissions to meet the journal’s standards while keeping its style and contents.

Author(s) automatically agree with IJHDR policies from the initial submission. 

IJHDR is a philanthropic initiative; thus, authors do not need to pay article processing charges (APC) or any other fee for submission (Diamond-standard Open Science).

IMPORTANT:

THE SUBMISSION INCLUDES A) COMPLETE FILLING OF METADATA; B) UPLOAD OF THE ANONIMIZED MANUSCRIP AND THE ADDITIONAL FILES (TABLES AND FIGURES); C) THE TITLE PAGE WITH THE FOLLOWING MANDATORY ITEMS: TITLE, AUTHORS´ NAMES, AFFILIATIONS, FUNDING INFORMATION, CONFLICT OF INTEREST STATEMENT, AND A VALID ORCID NUMBER WITH DATA OPEN TO PUBLIC (please, see https://orcid.org/signin); D) THE COVER LETTER.

BEFORE SUBMITTING, PLEASE SEE THE CHECKLIST ABOVE.

THE LACK OF THIS INFORMATION CAN IMPAIR THE EDITORIAL FLOW TO THE REVIEWERS.

SUBMISSION CATEGORIES:
IJHDR considers submissions in the following categories:

  1. Original articles: resulting from empiric, experimental (including clinical trials), or conceptual original research;
  2. Review articles: a critical analysis of thorough and updated literature on topics related to the field of HD research;
  3. Letter to Editors: dealing with subjects relevant to HD research, not including original research or a thorough review of current literature. Opinion articles will be classified in this section if approved;
  4. Short communications: preliminary reports of research under progress;
  5. Case reports are a series of clinical cases exclusively aiming to discuss specific aspects that might contribute to research in HDs. Attention: single-case reports are not in the scope of the journal. Few exceptions can be considered in the function of the nature of the treated disease and the innovative impact of the results.
  6. Dissertation abstracts: structured abstract reporting the main results derived from an academic dissertation;
  7. Book review: no advertising.
  8. Announcements: information on scientific meetings or other news relevant to HD research.

SUBMISSION RULES:
IJHDR follows the Guidelines suggested by the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE); it is recommended to consult them.  (www.icmje.org)

  6. Each submission is pre-evaluated by the Editorial Team according to the scope and submission rules of the Journal. If approved, it follows the editorial flow on a double-blind basis, in which two to three ad-hoc reviewers with expertise in the area related to the paper subject are invited to evaluate, following a structured form and using the submission guideline as reference. The homeopathy practice is optional for a reviewer, but a scientific background is needed. After all reviewers' approval, the paper will be submitted to the final Editorial staff evaluation before publication.
  7. Further inconsistencies of results and ethical procedures identified after publication will imply the publication of an erratum by the authors in the following issue or, if necessary, the paper's retraction. The Editorial Board will be consulted to reach a consensus in these cases.
