Theme Issue on Palliative Care , Dying and Bereavement - call for papers
Page: 1188 - 1188
2008 VOL 162 ; PART 12 December
The Archives will publish a "rolling theme issue" this year on palliative care, dying, and bereavement. We are interested in original articles, narrative and systematic reviews, and commentaries that will add to the scientific knowledge about these topics. Such articles might include observational longitudinal studies such as the effects of loss of a family member on children and adolescents; clinical trials examining specific interventions or evaluating different systems of delivering palliative, hospice, or bereavement care; and ethical analyses regarding how we decide on and enact the goals and limits of medical therapy.
