Type of Manuscripts

  • Articles Research/ Research Article
  • Research reports are of interest to the scientific community in the field of health will be published as a research article. A manuscript has a well-described hypothesis, and measurable results and has not been previously explored.
  • Review/reviews

Community scientists in the field of health can issue a review. The review contains the latest review of the science of nursing, midwifery, environmental health, health analysts, public health and science technology. In addition, a review is published as a guide for instructors in the field of health. Authors are encouraged to elaborate on the background and history of previous research and quote-review previously published reviews. Generally, the description in the review contains the latest information (last few years).
A comprehensive review and comment will be published as "Critical Reviews". Critical reviews are intended to discuss the literature that has been published, it is not intended to present a new review, reanalysis of data or further analysis. Holistik Jurnal Kesehatan will review the appropriate review as research articles. Critical reviews can be initiated by the Editor-in-Chief or the author. To review initiated by the author, before writing a review, the authors suggested outline handed to the review's editor, so that it complies with Holistik Jurnal Kesehatan. The scope of review can be determined prior to submission. This article is generally limited to five printed pages.

Abstract background containing the results and conclusions of the methods described clearly and concisely. The background explains the context of the research, the exact purpose, specific hypotheses to be tested. The method describes the study design, the identification of specific methods and procedures. The results showed that the most important results of the study, including the main data and the statistical analysis.

Below the abstract, provide and identify keywords or short phrases, including a group of subjects, which will improve the ability to find the manuscript, should not be used adjectives. Please note that during delivery of the manuscript, the author will be asked to provide keywords to assist editors in determining the reviewers appropriate for manuscripts. Keywords for search reviewer is the most fundamental word in the manuscript and may differ from the keyword list for publication.

  • INTRODUCTION

Explain clearly the background research conducted and its specific objectives, should not be a thorough review of the literature. State the specific purpose or hypothesis of this study.

  • METHOD

The method describes the study design, materials, and equipment, with a model number or a catalog, if necessary. Explain kit, analysis, and commercial laboratories are used. Quote the reference of the methods listed if possible and give a brief explanation if the modification. Research using humans and animals as objects. The study report must include a statement that the protocol was approved by an ethics committee. Documents can be uploaded as a statement of additional files. Objects such as animal research are necessary to explain how the animals are removed, control and treatment groups or probands experimental animals. Information on age, weight, sex, race, described for the human object, and a description of sex or strain to the experimental animals, include suppliers of experimental animals.

The method also describes the statistical tests used and the degree of probability (p) indicated where differences were considered significant. If the data presented in the text, indicate what they represent (ie., Mean ± SEM). Indicate whether the data is transformed prior to analysis. Define statistical computer program that is used. The results of the analysis are shown in the data tables and figures. Letters and symbols to show a significant difference, and footnotes tables and figures. Provide statistical variability according to the estimated error variance (SD or SEM) of the mean of the group. Standard ANOVA methodology assumes homogeneous variance. If the error variance tested and found heterogeneous, change the data before ANOVA, or use nonparametric tests. For a discussion of the calculation of the variability and procedures arch curves. If the reported P values are not significant, use only 2 digits past the decimal (for example, P = 0.15). Serve significant P values up to a maximum of 4 decimal places (for example, P<0.0001); Useless acceptable. The coefficient is now a maximum of 2 decimals (eg. R = 0.87, R2 = 0.16, ff.).

  • RESULTS

The results are described without repeating the methodology, introduction, or content of the discussion. Duplication of data from tables or figures in the text is avoided.

Results using the unit, it is necessary to metric units (eg, meters, kilograms, and L for height, weight, and volume), such as Celsius (° C). For data reporting, the use of SI units (le System Internationale d'Unites) (17) is preferred (ie., Mmol / L, g / L), but not mandatory. Conventional units such as mg / dL mg / mL can be accepted, using L, instead of l, for a liter. The units for the analyses/compounds are equally consistent throughout the manuscript. Instinctively puts a replacement unit in the text or gives a conversion factor in a footnote in a table or legend acceptable image. The unit should not be pluralized (ie., Wk and not wks) or followed by a period.

A useful site is:

SI conversions: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conversion_of_units

Conversion clinical SI: http://dwjay.tripod.com/conversion.html

While the figures presented to a variable must be properly and consistently. Use no more than three significant figures (less, if appropriate) or justification for higher accuracy.

Tables or figures, adapted or quoted from another source must include the source in a footnote in a table or legend images. Each table should have a clear title but concise. Information about the method or material explanations can be included in a footnote to the table, but the repetition of the methodology should be minimized. Clearly indicate the unit of measure after the variables in line, above the first value in each column, or centered on all columns of the units where applicable. Statistics show variability (ie., SD, combined SEM) and the significance of the difference between data. Eliminate internal horizontal and vertical rules before submitting your table.

  • DISCUSSION

The discussion explains the importance of the findings, and the literature related to putting them into context. The explanation of the discussion should be clear and concise.

  • CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

The main conclusion is the result of the research (avoid generalization), refer to the description in the discussion, and answer the research objectives. The conclusions are described in the form of points or narrative, logical and precise.

  • ACKNOWLEDGMENT (IF NECESSARY)

Technical assistance and advice can be described at the end of the text. Then the names of individuals that are included in this section, the author is responsible for the written consent of every person who communicates personally or recognized by the individual in the text.
