Check the journal requirements
Confirm article type, word limits, reference style, figure specifications, and required reporting guidelines before final formatting.
Audit consistency
Match terminology, abbreviations, sample sizes, units, and statistical notation across the abstract, main text, tables, figures, and supplementary files.
Review the submission package
Check the title page, cover letter, declarations, author information, and editable source files. A final independent proofread often catches errors hidden by familiarity.
