All attachments must bear the name and source from which the author drew, eg: author's archive, modified according to: quotation from a book, magazine, webpage, etc.
Literature: to be stated in ascending order, the reference number is in superscript (consecutive sorting). Literature at the end of the article according to the model:
Dupont IE, Carpentier YA, et al. Clinical use of lipid emulsions. Curr Opin Clin Nutr
Metab Care 1999;2:139–146.

Each article includes a short summary in Czech (approx. 10 lines) and a list of 3–6 keywords, and summary + keywords in English. Please send the title of the article both in Czech and in English.
Authors are asked to use the names of the active substances (generic or non-proprietary names), not the names of preparations, unless it is intended to characterize the particularities of the pharmaceutical form.
Note: furthermore, we ask authors to provide information on active substances that are not reflected in the SPC of the corresponding products, resp. the results of clinical studies not included in the SPC, in a separate paragraph after literature. Please also quote the quotations mentioned above separately.
Based on the review and the opinion of the professional editorial board, the article is accepted / not accepted or returned for revision or amendment.
The editorial office reserves the right to make minor language and graphic modifications.
Authors 'and reviewers' fees are paid on the basis of the Contract on Creation and Dissemination of the Work after publication of the article. The first author decides on the method of remuneration of possible co-authors. Recommended ranges of columns (number of standard pages) are the basis for the calculation of fees. Larger scope of the manuscript will not be reflected in the fee.
Administrative data - authors are sent a form to fill out (author card). Upon completion and return to the editor, the author is sent a copyright contract and paid a fee.
A part of the article is always a photograph of the first author (the best type is the “passport”).
Send it to the editor in electronic form in a suitable format (JPG, TIF, PSD, PDF) and in sufficient quality (sharpness, resolution at least 300 dpi). Please, do not use files with extensions: doc, docx, odt, ppt.
General rules: The custom of Current Media is to favor progressive forms in commonly used words, ie convergence of written and spoken forms of language (eg etiology, not ethiology).
However, words such as: chromosome, ribosome, trisomy ("soma"), thymus, thalamus, thyroidea, thorax, etc. are written in traditional way. Generic names of medicinal products are also recommendeddo not cleanse, eg ciclosporin, cyclophosphamide, erythromycin. Biochemical and chemical names should be based on Latin, e.g. ethane, ethyl.
THE EDITORIES RESERVE THE RIGHT TO MAKE SERIOUS TEXT ADJUSTMENTS.
BY SIGNING THE CONTRACT, THE AUTHOR AGREES TO HAVE HIS/HER REVIEWED AND PROOFREAD.
Thank you and we look forward to working with you.
