General Considerations. As an international,
peer-reviewed, general medical journal, JAMA will consider original manuscripts
on any topic that provide new information that advances medical science, enhances
clinical practice, improves patient care, and helps THE JOURNAL meet its key
objective "to promote the science and art of medicine and the betterment of
the public health" and fulfill its critical objectives.2 All
submitted manuscripts are initially evaluated by JAMA editors, and approximately
half are sent for external peer review. In 2003, more than 5000 manuscripts
were submitted for consideration for publication, and the acceptance rate
for unsolicited papers was approximately 8%.
