  114. 4:04towards the conduct of your research as
  115. 4:06well as you also hold lot of
  116. 4:08responsibilities during the manuscript
  117. 4:10preparation
  118. 4:12and submission to the journal
  119. 4:14authorities
  120. 4:15the authors need to defend their paper
  121. 4:18they need to be solely taking the
  122. 4:19responsibility of the data and its
  123. 4:21interpretation
  124. 4:23and one need to basically remember
  125. 4:26what you mean
  126. 4:27by authorship
  127. 4:30we do consider the icmje recommendations
  128. 4:34for which one need to
  129. 4:36contribute intellectually
  130. 4:39in the study design
  131. 4:41acquisition of data
  132. 4:43analysis and interpretation of the data
  133. 4:46and the author need to also
  134. 4:48contribute for drafting the article
  135. 4:51or revising it critically for
  136. 4:52intellectual content
  137. 4:54not just a minor editing work
  138. 4:57and finally all the authors need to be
  139. 4:59present for the final approval of
  140. 5:00version that is to be considered for
  141. 5:03the journal authorities for publication
  142. 5:05these are certain elements that
  143. 5:07contribute to authorship again to
  144. 5:09mention
  145. 5:10a person should have done a significant
  146. 5:12intellectual contribution
  147. 5:14creative contribution and one has to get
  148. 5:17actively involved in development of
  149. 5:19methodologies
  150. 5:20data acquisition analysis and
  151. 5:22interpretation
  152. 5:23we do come across certain conditions
  153. 5:26wherein we do get a lot of support
  154. 5:29from
  155. 5:30various people who do not fulfill the
  156. 5:32criteria of authorship and these are the
  157. 5:34people who need to be acknowledged
  158. 5:37commonly we come across
  159. 5:39this broad category as people who do not
  160. 5:42fulfill the criteria for being an author
  161. 5:46being the head of the department
  162. 5:48a person one who has helped in
  163. 5:49collecting the data
  164. 5:51doing a basic technical analysis work
  165. 5:54the institution or organization which
  166. 5:56provides the laboratory space or
  167. 5:58instruments
  168. 6:00funding agencies
  169. 6:02clinicians who are involved in caring of
  170. 6:04patients
  171. 6:05individuals who are involved in
  172. 6:07collecting specimens
  173. 6:09and those who are engaged in routine
  174. 6:11technical work
  175. 6:13those who had helped in editing and
  176. 6:15minor assistance
  177. 6:17all these
  178. 6:18group of people they do not fulfill the
  179. 6:20criteria for being an author and in an
  180. 6:23ideal setup one need to define the
  181. 6:26authorship as a team
  182. 6:27one need to describe the contribution
  183. 6:30made by each and every author
  184. 6:31the sequence of authorship is basically
  185. 6:34a joint decision and one need to get
  186. 6:36approval from all before you submit your
  187. 6:39paper
  188. 6:40for a
  189. 6:41publishing authority
  190. 6:43in an ideal scenario the authorship has
  191. 6:45to be discussed before the study starts
  192. 6:48and it it should include only those who
  193. 6:51are involved in all parts of the
  194. 6:54criteria that i mentioned under icm je
  195. 6:56and the sequence of authorship need to
  196. 6:58be finalized
  197. 7:00one can arrive at a consensus
  198. 7:02the conflicts which arise out of
  199. 7:05authorship can be
  200. 7:06prevented or resolved
  201. 7:08and one need to have transparency
  202. 7:10throughout the conduct of the study as
  203. 7:13well as while drafting the article so
  204. 7:16define the authorship early use clear
  205. 7:18and transparent rules
  206. 7:20specify the contributions and one can
  207. 7:22also use departmental or institutional
  208. 7:25criterias do not give
  209. 7:28a gift authorship
  210. 7:29similarly do not accept
  211. 7:32to be a gift author
  212. 7:34do not let it to be one person decision
  213. 7:36when multiple authors are involved the
  214. 7:38primary author is one who gets involved
  215. 7:42in submission of the manuscript and will
  216. 7:44be available throughout the
  217. 7:46process of manuscript review
  218. 7:49he will be the sole person taking care
  219. 7:50of
  220. 7:51replying to the journal authorities
  221. 7:54and he informs
  222. 7:56all the authors on the study progress
  223. 7:59or the review progress
  224. 8:01and he understands
  225. 8:02the work that has been contributed by
  226. 8:05all the authors
  227. 8:06the secondary authors
  228. 8:08will defend the content and will also
  229. 8:10agree for the conclusions and the
  230. 8:12interpretation that is drawn the
  231. 8:14sequence of author the first author is a
  232. 8:16person one who makes
  233. 8:18a major contribution
  234. 8:20one would drafts the first
  235. 8:22version of the manuscript
  236. 8:25then the subsequent authorship depends
  237. 8:27on the work
  238. 8:29that they have contributed
  239. 8:31at times it may be based on the
  240. 8:32alphabetical order
  241. 8:33or it may be on turns
  242. 8:35whereas
  243. 8:36any author during their initial career
  244. 8:39would prefer to take up the first
  245. 8:40authorship or a second authorship but as
  246. 8:43they become a senior researcher with
  247. 8:45multiple publications so they would
  248. 8:47rather encourage their junior faculty
  249. 8:49members or researchers to
  250. 8:50come up so they may permit the junior
  251. 8:53research fellows to take up the
  252. 8:55first or second authorship and the
  253. 8:58senior researcher may take up the lost
  254. 9:00authorship
  255. 9:01all those individuals who do not fulfill
  256. 9:03the criteria of being an author
  257. 9:06need to be acknowledged under the
  258. 9:08acknowledgement section
  259. 9:10all those who have helped in the work
  260. 9:12at some stage
  261. 9:14even for the individuals whom you are
  262. 9:16going to
  263. 9:17include in acknowledgement section you
  264. 9:19need to get their written consent the
  265. 9:21classical examples for those who need to
  266. 9:23be acknowledged are those who provide a
  267. 9:26technical help
  268. 9:27the institution or organization which
  269. 9:29provides you the space equipment and
  270. 9:31infrastructure for conducting the study
  271. 9:34those who had helped you in writing
  272. 9:36assistance
  273. 9:38department heads for their support
  274. 9:41those who are involved in data
  275. 9:43collection
  276. 9:44and funding agencies for providing the
  277. 9:46fire the financial or material help
  278. 9:50statisticians those who are involved
  279. 9:53starting from the
  280. 9:55conception of the study
  281. 9:57involved in creating the study design
  282. 10:00data collection
  283. 10:01analysis and interpretation of data
  284. 10:05in that particular situation a
  285. 10:07statistician can be given a authorship
  286. 10:10if they are involved only in analysis
  287. 10:12part
  288. 10:13if they do not fulfill the other
  289. 10:15criterias they can be acknowledged
  290. 10:18coming on to the affiliation affiliation
  291. 10:20basically means the institute that each
  292. 10:22author belongs to
  293. 10:25the institute where the research was
  294. 10:26conducted
  295. 10:27if there is a change in
  296. 10:29the affiliation after the completion of
  297. 10:32study
  298. 10:33the new affiliation can be acknowledged
  299. 10:36and one need to provide the full postal

  301. 10:41the country name
  302. 10:43after
  303. 10:44this particular category we need we move
  304. 10:46on to the authors contribution
  305. 10:48wherein each and every author

  331. 11:39occur which can be either a potential
  332. 11:43conflict which may
  333. 11:45alter the study outcome
  334. 11:47when it comes to
  335. 11:49this manuscript submission
