Paper Head

Title – author – abstract – keywords
Author Information
Under the title is the author information. The authors are listed in a particular order. The first author on the list is usually the lead author, often the person who designed the research and is responsible for most of the work. The last author (the senior author) is usually the principle investigator (Pl), who led the study or runs the lab. The little numbers next to the authors’ names direct the readers elsewhere on the first page of the paper to read the author affiliations, i.e., the institutions to which the authors are affiliated. If there is an asterisk next to the little number, it indicates this is the corresponding author and the asterisk directs readers to the email address of this author somewhere on the first page.

Abstract

There are three primary styles of the abstract:

1. descriptive; 2) informative; 3) structured
   
   Structured Abstract
   A structured abstract is an abstract with distinct labeled sections for rapid comprehension. It Is more likely to include all the key points and clearly organizes the points in a way that is easy to follow. The IMRAD format (INTRODUCTION, METHODS, RESULTS, and DISCUSSSON) Is commonly used as a structure for journal abstracts, a format that reflects the process of scientific discovery. Compared with unstructured abstracts, structured abstracts have several advantages: they contain more information, are easier to read and research, and facilitate peer review.
