Use this Breast Cancer template when the manuscript has to match that journal before you upload it.
It is the writing shell for Breast Cancer: title and authors, the abstract, the body, declarations, figures, and the reference list.
A Breast Cancer submission has a title page with authors and affiliations, a structured abstract of up to 250 words, keywords, the main text for your article type, declarations, the reference list in Vancouver (NLM) style, and figures and tables.
Open the journal's current author guide before you upload.
The sections a Breast Cancer submission is built from, in order: title page, abstract, keywords, main text, declarations, references, figures, and tables. It does not replace the journal's own checklist.

These examples show the pattern, not real sources. If the author guide gives a different rule for DOIs or for how many authors to list before et al., follow the guide.
Open the author guide once before you draft and once before you upload. Match a recent Breast Cancer paper for depth, headings, and figure style.
Then submit on the journal's portal, not from this page.
