Submitting to Karger journals
What we hold as Karger’s house rules, and where each one was read. A journal’s own guide for authors always comes first: a rule here is used only where that guide is silent.

What the journal decides, not Karger
These vary between Karger journals, so we do not hold a house value for them. Your journal’s own guide for authors is where to look.
