附信（投稿信，cover letter）提供了一个宝贵的机会，使你可以向期刊编辑解释论文的新颖之处以及在该目标期刊发表的必要性。投稿信应力求明确、直接、言之有物，以提高稿件送审机会。部分期刊要求作者在投稿时递交一份投稿信的同时，在信内须阐明一些指定的内容（如，利益冲突；临床试验注册；存放于公共数据库的序列数据）。

模板

我们编写了两个模板供您选用。作者可选择在体例格式和篇幅上较适合的模板。

篇幅较短的投稿信模板最适合于病例研究和短篇通讯。它主要包括4个段落：

• 稿件简要说明

• 研究工作的背景和目标

• 研究结果的重要性

• 期刊所要求的声明

篇幅较长的投稿信模板则适用于长篇论著。因此，它需要对研究的背景、目标和重要性进行详细阐述。它也包含以下段落：

• 推荐潜在的审稿人

• 排除特定的审稿人

在撰写投稿信前，你应：

• 阅读期刊《稿约》中有关投稿信的要求（例如，是否硬性要求作者推荐审稿人）

• 申明研究的新颖性和重要性

• 阅读期刊《稿约》中关于宗旨和范围的描述，并考虑你的稿件是否确实适合投往该刊
