When equipment and novel drugs are mentioned, their manufacturers and country should be indicated.

Results. These should be sequenced logistically in the text, tables, and figures. The text should not repeat all the data from the tables and figures, but should mention only the most important data of them. The figures should not replicate the data given in the tables. Figure captions with designations should be appropriately numbered on a separate page. Units of measurements should comply with the International System of Units (SI).

Discussion. The authors must identify the new and important aspects of the results of their investigation and, where possible, to compare them with the data obtained by other investigators. The information already given in the section “Introduction” and detailed data in the section “Results” should not be repeated. Discussion may include sound recommendations and a concise conclusion.

Tables. Each table should be typed on a separate page and must have a name and a serial number in accordance with to its first mention in the text. Each table column should have a brief heading (abbreviations may be used). All explanations, including abbreviation expansion, must be placed in footnotes. Identify statistical methods used to represent the variability of data and difference significance.

The caption for each figure should consist of its name and a legend (explanations of the parts of a figure, symbols, arrows, and its other details).

Illustrations (figures, diagrams, photographs) should be presented on separate sheets; their number must be absolutely necessary.

A list should enumerates all references according to the order of citation in the text, not in alphabetical order of the surnames of the first authors. When the individual surnames of the authors are mentioned in the text, these should be preceded by their initial (the surnames of foreign authors should be given in their original transcription). References should be indicated in the text by Arabic numerals in square brackets. A list of references should not include dissertation papers as their familiarization is difficult. When compiling a reference list, preference should be given to the works of Russian authors.

The list should be compiled in the following order: a) surnames of all authors of a book or an article; b) the title of a book or an article; c) imprint. Sometimes, editors or compilers may act as the authors of books. The surname of the last of them should be followed by “ed.’ in parentheses.
