Rehabilitation and Physical Medicine - About the journal

Focus and Scope

The journal "Rehabilitace a fyzikální lékařství" focuses on presenting results of research studies and theoretical studies from the field of rehabilitation and physical medicine. The scope of the journal covers topics related to diagnostics, therapy, biomechanics, exercise physiology, public health, etc. The journal also welcomes submissions that present results of interdisciplinary research.

Peer Review Process

After receiving the submission, the managing editors check the submission and decide whether it is in compliance with the requirements stated in author guidelines and whether it fits within the scope of the journal. Submissions are then assigned to two peer-reviewers. To ensure the integrity of the blind peer-review for submissions to this journal, every effort should be made to prevent the identities of the authors and reviewers from being known to each other. The reviewers are required to decide if they do the review within two weeks. Once they have confirmed their willingness to do the review they have to complete it within 4 weeks.

The following criteria are always considered for each submission in the peer-review process:

  • ethical aspects

  • originality of the work

  • importance of the information

  • clarity and comprehensibility of the text

  • appropriateness of the methods

  • interpretation of the results

  • reasonability of the conclusions

For authors and reviewers

The manuscript can be sent in English, Czech or Slovak.

The text of the manuscript must be prepared in Microsoft Word (Microsoft Office 2000 or later). Use single-line spacing for the text, including legends. Times New Roman font 12pt is recommended, with a text width of 15 cm. Each section should begin on a new page. For the manuscript as a whole, number the pages starting with the title page. The page number should be placed at the bottom of the page in the center. Please use the following order: Title page including acknowledgments, abstract and keywords, text, and literature review.

Tables may also be created in Microsoft Word (or another table editor), which can be edited. Place each table on a separate page, number the tables consecutively in the order in which they are first cited in the text, and add a short title to each table. Explanatory notes should be placed in the table footer, never in the header. In the footer, explain all abbreviations used in each table. Check that each table is cited in the text. Files should be named using the same conventions as the text (Vomacka.Parkinson.tables.doc). Similarly, graphs and diagrams are to be editable (MS Excel) and include source data (xls, eps, wmf, emf, cdr, al, pdf). Pictures send in tiff, eps, or jpg format. Check that each picture is cited in the text. Tables created using Microsoft Word insert to a text file, for Legends to figures. Tables send as a separate file.

Photographs should be sent with the necessary print resolution (300 dpi) as follows:

  • The minimum width of a picture fitting the width of a journal column should be 700 pixels (6 cm);
  • The minimum width of a picture fitting the width of two journal columns should be 1,500 pixels (12.5 cm);
  • The minimum width of a picture fitting the width of three journal columns should be 2,200 pixels (18.5 cm).

Legends for graphic materials should be added to the text file for References. If any symbols, arrows, numbers or letters have been used in the description of the image, explain these in the legend.

Use only standard abbreviations. Avoid abbreviations in the heading and abstract. The full name must precede the first use of an abbreviation – with the exception of standard abbreviations for units of measurement.
