The abstract should include (at least) five sections:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list lista\">\n<li><strong>Introduction, Aims, Methods, Results<\/strong>, and <strong>Conclusion<\/strong>, not necessarily separated.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Aim<\/strong><em>:<\/em> study focus.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Methods<\/strong><em>:<\/em> systematically list the basic procedures, selection of study participants or laboratory\/experimental\/simulation setup, methods of observation (if applicable) and analysis.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Results<\/strong>: List your primary results without any introduction. Only essential statistical significances should be added in brackets. Draw no conclusions yet: they belong in the next section.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Conclusion<\/strong>: List your conclusions in a short, clear and simple manner. State only those conclusions that stem directly from the results shown in the paper. Rather than summarizing the data, conclude from them.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Language:<\/strong>&nbsp;Write clearly and concisely. Use specific terms and avoid unnecessary technical jargon. The abstract should be understandable to a wide range of readers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Key Elements:&nbsp;<\/strong>Include in the abstract the key elements of the work that best represent it. These may include important results, new findings, or significant impacts of your work.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Consistency with Full Text:<\/strong>&nbsp;The abstract should accurately reflect the content of your work. It should not contain information not found in the text or claims not supported by your results.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Revision and Editing:<\/strong>&nbsp;The abstract should be flawless both in terms of content and language and grammar.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Keywords:<\/strong>&nbsp;The abstract should include a list of keywords that are important for your work. These keywords help readers find your work during searches.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Citation:<\/strong>&nbsp;The abstract should be a self-contained source of information and should not contain references to external sources of information. If necessary, proper citation should be provided (including the names of authors and publication year).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list lista\">\n<li><strong>NOTES<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Please ensure that the abstract is written according to the provided template.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The abstract\u2019s topic should align with the Congress topics.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Submitted abstracts can only be changed or modified with the approval of the Executive Chair of the WMETMC until the submission deadline.
