Clinical trial manuscripts should comply with applicable registration and reporting requirements. Randomized controlled trials should follow CONSORT guidance where applicable.
Short communications and commentaries should present concise, focused, and relevant scholarly information, observations, methodological developments, or informed analysis.
Editorials may address significant developments, emerging issues, policy matters, or important research relevant to the scope of JMMHR.
