FIGURE LEGENDS
(sample)
Figure 1. Histologic presentation of the biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP)/absorbable collagen sponge group
after 4 weeks of healing. New bone is seen in close contact with the graft material. (A: H&E, ×10; B: H&E,
×100). arrowheads, defect margin; NB, new bone.
(Figure guide)
You should not attach figure files in the manuscript. Instead, you should upload your figure files, each figure as
separate file, to our e-submission system while submitting your paper.
Figures should be submitted in Tiff or JPEG file format. If the only possible file format is JPEG, it must be in
highest quality with minimum compression. Number figures as Figure 1, Figure 2 … in order of citation. An
individual should not be recognizable in the photographs unless a written consent of the subject has been
obtained and is provided at the time of submission. Scales should be presented as a bar in the picture or as a
magnification remark in the legend.
Except for especially complicated drawings that show large amounts of data, all figures are published at one
page or one column width; when the figures are reduced to the size of a single column or of a single page width,
the smallest parts of the figure must be legible.
It is recommended to size original figure widths to 4 inches wide. The minimum requirements for digital
resolution are:
• 900 DPI/PPI for black and white images, such as line drawings or graphs.
• 300 DPI/PPI for picture-only photographs.
• 500 DPI/PPI for photographs containing pictures and line elements, i.e., text labels, thin lines, arrows.

*Different capital letters in the same column represent statistical significant difference between groups. Different lower case letters in the same line represent statistical significant difference between groups. (Tukey-Kramer test)
(Table guide)
Each table should be typed in a separate sheet. The title of the table should be placed on top. The first letter of
the first word should be capitalized and a period should be placed at the end of the title. Tables are numbered in
order of citation in the main text. Only horizontal lines should be used within a table, to distinguish the column
headings from the body of the table, and immediately above and below the table. Lower case letters in
superscripts a, b, c ... should be used for special remarks.
