Abstract
A. Prior publication in meeting program abstracts, such as those published by the Surgical Forum of the American College of Surgeons or Transplantation Proceedings. However, these must be referenced in the final manuscript. B. A manuscript that extends an original database (a good rule might be expansion by 50% or more), or which analyzes the original database in a different way in order to prove or disprove a different hypothesis. Previous manuscripts reporting the original database must, however, be referenced. C. Manuscripts that may have been published originally in non-English journals, provided that the prior publication is indicated clearly on the English language submission and referenced in the manuscript. In some circumstances, permission to publish may need to be obtained from the non-English journal.
