Tables, Figures and Graphs

Tables

They will only be used to show very significant results within the article. Tables with unformatted grids and included in the text of the work, not in Annexes, will be presented.

Each one should be mentioned at the top, listed Arabic and consecutively in order of appearance in the text and assigned a brief title. Example: Table 1., followed by the title. Writing No. 1 is being redundant. Never call them a Picture.

In case of use of abbreviations, they must be clarified in a Legend in the table footer next to the source of the data.

Authors must fill in the blanks with a zero (0). White spaces can be interpreted as having no data or being mistakenly omitted.

If the percentages should add up to 100, make sure they add 100. Align the columns of numbers under the decimal point. If the table is so long that you should continue on the next page, type on the next page Table X (X is the number of the table) and repeat the column header. Express all decimals with the same score criteria.

The RIC Editorial Committee will require the use of the tables whenever it deems necessary.

 

Figures

All images must be sent separately through the platform, regardless of whether they are located in the article in case they require editing work. They must have an optimal quality for electronic publishing. They will be mentioned in the figure foot, as follows, and listed consecutively in order of appearance in the text. Example: Fig. 1. Title (Writing No. 1 is being redundant).

They will be delivered in *.jpg format; they will have a dimension of no more than 1 024 x 768 pixels and will not exceed 500 kb. X-rays, scanners, ultrasounds and other images of diagnostic techniques must be presented in sharp photographs, in shades of gray.

In the legends of the figures should not miss titles or explanations, but these will not appear inside the illustrations but in the figure foot.

 

Graphics

The information should not be duplicated in tables and graphs. They have short descriptive title and legend. They will be indicated below these, such as: Figure 1. Title (Writing No. 1 is being redundant).

The use of some graph (bars, columns, lines, circulars, etc.) is preferred to that of tables with multiple entries. They must be simple and unadorned. They will be presented in shades of gray. RIC will take care of the final design according to its digital identity.
