New projects and challenges
Looking back
As far as years go, 2016 set the bar quite high at Cremer Consulting SARL. In May, we celebrated the 10th birthday of our group, and the year was certainly a busy one! We recruited our first clients in Africa (Morocoo) and significantly increased our presence in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland.
In the course of 2016, we reconnected with former clients that have now become real friends, and made numerous new connections that we hope will soon become loyal friends themselves. All we strive for in the New Year is your continued satisfaction with our efforts to elaborate the most professional papers for you.
To finish, we wish all our clients and readers a Happy New Year. May the new year bring to you success and desired results, and a light to guide your path towards a positive destination.
Chronological order when writing a paper
The order of writing the different parts is certainly a personal choice, yet the chronological order stipulated below may prove time-saving. And select your target journal first! When writing your paper, you simultaneously keep in mind the instructions for the authors.
1) Methods. It is easiest to start the Method section first. This part of your paper must be clear-cut and understandable. Subheadings may improve clarity! Keep in mind: The experiments presented must be repeatable and yield similar results.
2) Results. This major section presents your key research findings. Figures and tables may be employed. The accompanying text should be concise, with findings expressed in exact words, thereby avoiding needless redundancy between text and illustrations.
3) Figures and Tables. These items must be effective, and should not be too detailed and complicated. The legends should always clearly explain the illustrations, without requiring any reference to the text.
4) Introduction. Once the methods and results have been clearly outlined, you will be in a good position to start writing the Introduction section, totally focused on the study’s aims.
5) Discussion. This last section provides you with the opportunity to draw conclusions on the significance of your research, and to set your findings against the background of published research.
Common reasons for paper rejection
A manuscript submitted to a high-quality medical journal undergoes intensive scrutiny, and a great number of papers are already rejected even before making it to the peer review process. Hence, we highly recommend you to avoid common pitfalls.
1) Technical flaws. The article may comprise components suspected to be plagiarized; it may contain images without permission; it may already be under review by another journal; several references may be missing or be too old. Please check!
2) Defective procedures or data analysis! The methodology used may not comply with recognized procedures or cannot be repeated; the selected statistical analyses may not be appropriate for their purposes. Please check!
3) Incremental findings. The article does only bring up incremental findings, most being a minor extension of previously published data. Please check!
4) Unjustified conclusions. The arguments put forth are not logical and inadequately structured; they do in no way support the final conclusions. Please check!
5) Poor quality. The paper may be so poorly written and structured that its editorial content cannot be grasped. You need help? We offer extensive editing services. Please, contact us at once by email or telephone.
