CALL FOR PAPERS: Child and Adolescent Health
Because of the great potential of health promotion and disease prevention in children and adolescents to impact the health of children and adults and the costs of health care, JAMA will devote a special theme issue to this topic in June 2009. Authors from all nations are invited to submit papers on all related topics, especially high-quality original research that presents novel findings, as well as systematic reviews and commentaries. Papers submitted by February 2, 2009, will have the best chance of being considered for the theme issue.
