The recommendations, formerly known as the Uniform Requirements for Manuscripts Submitted to Biomedical Journals (URMs), were first published in 1978 as a way of standardizing manuscript format and preparation across journals and have been updated periodically. They have been adopted by many peer-reviewed medical journals, including many non-ICMJE journals, which have incorporated them into their instructions to authors.
The recommendations review best practice and ethical standards in the conduct and reporting of research and other material published in medical journals. They are intended primarily for use by authors who submit their work for publication to ICMJE member journals, but are also designed to help editors and others involved in peer review and biomedical publishing to create and distribute accurate, clear, unbiased articles.
The guidelines contain recommendations on the role of authors and contributors, reporting conflicts of interest, responsibilities in the submission and peer-review process, copyright, overlapping and duplicate publications, acceptable secondary publications, manuscripts based on the same database, clinical trial registration and advice on preparing a manuscript for submission to a medical journal, and many other subjects.
The recommendations are freely available from the ICMJE website.
