Abstracts

Abstract Submission Terms

Abstracts can only be submitted by logging in to the system on www.tkd.org.tr. Abstracts sent by e-mail or post will not be accepted.
Abstract submission deadline is 30th June 2016. Online Abstract Submission System will be closed as of that date. Users who will use the online abstract module for the first time should register the system on “New User Registration” button.

General Requirements of Abstracts

Abstract text field is limited to 3000 characters except title and name of the author. System will not allow users to write more than 3000 characters on this field.
System automatically standardises fonts of the texts so it is not possible to use a different font.
Abstract should be formed as “introduction”, “equipment and method”, “results” and “discussion”.
The title should be in a form that explains the content of the study. Apart from the words with lowercase letters of a unique importance such as pH or NaCI, all of the words in abstract titles should be written in capital letters. The first time an abbreviation is used in a text, it should be spelled out fully in parentheses except chemical symbols and international units.
Abstracts about the studies of experimentations on human beings should have ethics committee approval and be in accordance with the Turkish laws.
As the submitted abstracts will be printed directly, spelling mistakes should be avoided.
Abstracts elected by Scientific Committee to be presented in the congress will be published in the special edition of Anatolian Journal of Cardiology.
As it causes problems in the stream, our colleagues who accept to take part in the congress as speakers or moderators but shirk their duties without giving any excuse will not be assigned to any duties at least one period.
Besides, the ones who fail to present their abstracts or hang posters without giving any excuse will be journalised and their abstracts submitted as the first author for the next congress will be rejected.

Feedback

Abstracts will be evaluated through the online system and the result will be sent to the e-mail addresses defined in the system as of 23th July 2016. Users will be able to follow the whole evaluation process on the system through their e-mails and passwords.
