Author Guidelines and Manuscript Templates
Prepare your manuscript with the official EHI template. Initial submissions are received by email; manuscripts that pass editorial assessment are registered in OJS for transparent workflow tracking.
Within 1–3 days, the editorial office assesses scope fit, originality and similarity. Authors of manuscripts that pass this stage receive an OJS account and login information; all subsequent review, revision and production activity is tracked through OJS.
Use a concise, informative, sentence-case title of no more than 20 words. Provide a structured abstract of 150–250 words and 3–5 keywords. Avoid citations and undefined abbreviations in the abstract.
Authorship metadata
State each author’s full name, department or study program, faculty or institution, city and country. Identify the corresponding author and provide email and ORCID iD where available.
Anonymous review file
Prepare a clean manuscript for double-blind review. Remove author names, affiliations, acknowledgements and identifying document properties from the review version.

Number tables and figures in citation order. Place table titles above tables and figure captions below figures. Images must be legible and at least 300 dpi; protect patient identity.
