WHOS RESPONSIBLE

Authors of articles in Annals are responsible for the honesty of their work and for what is reported in their article. Editors select articles for publication and try to help authors report their work clearly, assisted by reviewers and editorial staff. Editors' performance is apparent to readers in every issue and Annals' Editors are responsible to the Board of Regents of the American College of Physicians for the overall conduct of the journal but not editorial decisions. We select articles for Annals because we believe they present important information or points of view; there are no official Annals positions.
