Introduction

Introduction should describe the purpose of the article concisely and include relevant background information.

Material and Methods

Authors should describe details of the study design, materials (subjects), and methods used in this order.
Clearly describe the selection of observational or experimental participants (healthy individuals or patients, including controls), including eligibility and exclusion criteria and a description of the source population. Because the relevance of such variables as age, sex, or ethnicity is not always known at the time of study design, researchers should aim for inclusion of representative populations into all study types and at a minimum provide descriptive data for these and other relevant demographic variables. Ensure correct use of the terms sex (when reporting biological factors) and gender (identity, psychosocial or cultural factors), and, unless inappropriate, report the sex and/or gender of study participants, the sex of animals or cells, and describe the methods used to determine sex and gender. If the study was done involving an exclusive population, for example in only one sex, authors should justify why, except in obvious cases (e.g., testicular leukemia). Authors should define how they determined race or ethnicity and justify their relevance. Authors should use neutral, precise, and respectful language to describe study participants and avoid the use of terminology that might stigmatize participants. In clinical research of human subjects, the sex or gender of research participants must be described accurately. All research must include both male and female participants; if any research is limited to a single gender, the scientific rationale for the research must be clear. In cell or animal-based research, the source, certification status and biological characteristics of cell lines and animals must be shown. Researchers should also aim for gender parity in animal-based research.
For experimental study, authors should describe the process in detail so that other researchers may replicate the experiment as closely as possible. The sources of special chemicals or reagents should be given along with the source location (name of company, city, state, and country). Machine and equipment should also be given their model name, city, state and country of manufacture in parenthesis. The statistical software program used should be described.
The study protocol must be approved by authors' Institutional Review Board (IRB). The animal study must be approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) of the investigator's institution.

Results

Results should be presented in logical sequence in the text, tables, and figures. Do not repeat all of the data in the tables or figures in the text but emphasize or summarize only the most important observations. Citation of tables and figures should be provided as Table 1 and Fig. 1.

Discussion

There should be an emphasis on the new and important aspects of the study. Do not repeat the results in detail or other information that is given in the Introduction or the Results section. Discuss according to the purpose of the study but avoid unqualified statements that are not adequately supported by the data. Limitation and further requirements may be described. Conclusion should be stated briefly in the last paragraph of the Discussion section.

Acknowledgments

Persons or institutes who contributed to the article but not fulfilling all four criteria of authorship of ICMJE Recommendations (http://www.icmje.org/recommendations/) should be regarded as a non-author contributor, and referred to in the 'Acknowledgments' section of the manuscript. The role of any non-author contributor should be written in detail. Written consent from the non-author contributor should also be provided.

References

References should be numbered consecutively in the order in which they are cited in the text. Each reference should be cited as [1], [1,4] or [5-8] at the end of the related phrases in the text. The number of references should not be more than 40 in Original Article, 100 in Review Article and 15 in Case Report.
The abbreviated journal title should be used according to the list of Journals Indexed for MEDLINE (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nlmcatalog/journals) and the list of KoreaMed Journals (https://koreamed.org/JournalBrowserNew.php). List all authors up to 6, but if more than 6, list the first 3 authors and add "et al."

General Text Style

	•	Nomenclatures: For medicine, use generic names. If a brand name should be used, insert it in parentheses after the generic name. Do not use the symbols ® or TM unless necessary. . To make the articles more readable and informative, the name of genes, enzymes and microorganisms should be written in italics, e.g., BCR-ABL mutations, BCR-ABL kinase, N-myc gene, and E. coli.
	•	Statistical Expression: Mean and standard deviation should be described as mean±SD, also mean and standard error as mean±SE. P should be uppercase and italicized to indicate statistical significance.
	•	Units: SI units (International System of Units) should be used. Unit for volume is “L”, instead of “l” to avoid confusion. Leave a space between number and units as 5 mmHg, but 5% or 36oC is permitted. (Council of Science Editors. Scientific style and format. The CSE manual for authors, editors, and publishers, 7th ed. Reston: The Council, 2006.)
	•	Numbers: In the text, numbers should be Arabic numerals, except when beginning a sentence. Numbers greater than 999 should have commas, e.g., 10,000.
	•	Abbreviations: When using abbreviations, define the abbreviation completely in parentheses at first mention. Do not use non-standard abbreviations in the Title. Common hematological, immunological, molecular, and chemical terms can be used without definition in the Title, Abstract, Text, Tables, and Figure legends, e.g., RBC, WBC, ALL, AML, CML, CLL, IgG, HLA, ELISA, AIDS, DNA, cDNA, RNA, mRNA, PCR, bp, kb, and kDa. Hb (hemoglobin) and Hct (hematocrit) can be used without definition except in the Title. Other common abbreviations may be used without definition in Tables, e.g., hr (hour), sec (second), min (minute), d (day), wk (week), mo (month), y (year), N (sample size), P (statistical significance), mL (milliliter), SD (standard deviation of the mean), and SE (standard error of the mean).

PEER REVIEW PROCESS

1. Review Process
Clinical Pediatric Hematology-Oncology (Clin Pediatr Hematol Oncol, CPHO) is a double-blind peer-reviewed open access journal. CPHO reviews all manuscripts received. All submitted manuscripts are first screened upon arrival for possible plagiarism or duplicate publication by Crossref Similarity Check (https://www.crossref.org/services/similarity-check/) which uses Turnitin's iThenticate software (http://www.ithenticate.com/) upon arrival, and reviewed for its format by the manuscript editor. After the screening, the Editor-in-Chief sends the manuscript to an Associate Editor of the relevant field. The Associate Editor reviews and sends the manuscript to two peer reviewers in the corresponding field and the English Editor. In addition, if deemed necessary, a review of the manuscript's statistics may be requested to the Statistical Editor. The assigned reviewers can accept or reject the review request. Once the reviewers accept the request, they should submit their decision and comments on the manuscript within 2 weeks. Authors' names and affiliations are removed during peer review.
On the basis of the comments of the reviewers, the assigned Associate Editor primarily determines whether the article is acceptable or not. A decision is made as "acceptance", "minor revision", "major revision" or "rejection". The acceptance criteria for all papers are based on the quality and the originality of the research and its clinical and scientific significance. Acceptance of the manuscript is decided on the basis of the comments and the recommended decision of the reviewers. The authors can check comments and results of the peer review on the online system. The corresponding author will be contacted for revision by e-mail. After revising the manuscript, the corresponding author should submit the revised manuscript online with a reply describing the alterations that have been made in response to the reviewers' comments item by item. Failure to resubmit the revised manuscript within 60 days is regarded as a withdrawal. Based on the opinion of the Associate Editors, the Editor-in-Chief will make a final decision on acceptance for publication or rejection for publication of the finally revised manuscripts. The Editor-in-Chief can request any further corrections or revisions if necessary. The final decision on acceptance for publication or rejection for publication will be forwarded to the corresponding author from the Editorial Office by e-mail. After acceptance, the final version of the manuscript should be submitted within 1 week of the request. The order of publication is the duty of the Editor-in-Chief. Any errors discovered in the articles after

2. Appeals of Decision
Any appeal against the editorial decision must be made within 2 weeks of the date on the decision letter. Authors who wish to appeal a decision should contact the Editor-in-Chief, explaining in detail their reasons for the appeal. All appeals will be discussed with at least one other associate editor. If the associate editor(s) does not agree, the appeal will be discussed at a full editorial meeting. CPHO does not consider second appeals.

MANUSCRIPTS ACCEPTED FOR PUBLICATION

1. Final version
After the article has been accepted for publication, the author(s) should submit the final version of the manuscript within 1 week of the request.
