The introduction should establish the context of the paper by stating the general field of interest, presenting findings of others that will be challenged or developed, and specifying the specific question to be addressed.

6. Results: This section should contain a concise account of the new information. Tables and figures are to be used as appropriate, but information presented in them should not be repeated in the text. Avoid detailing methods and interpreting results in this section. The results section may be subdivided and headed as for the materials and methods section.

7. Discussion: An interpretation and explanation of the relationship of the results to existing knowledge should appear in the discussion section (proper citations are mandatory). Emphasis should be placed on the important new findings, and new hypotheses should be identified clearly. The primary heading and subdivisions, if needed, in this section are as described for the materials and methods section.
