hello, can I ask whether it is necessary to reference a supplementary information in the manuscript? For example, if I want to publish case report of immune cell therapy in gastric cancer, the supplementary file, which is the preparation process of immune cell vaccine, is not important in understanding my manuscript. Thus I found it awkward to mention the supplementary information in the manuscript
If you have supplementary information files posted online, the manuscript should provide a link or some notification of their existence. Why not include a statement such as "...the immune cell vaccine was prepared by Process X, as described in Supplementary Text S1."? If the process is standard, perhaps a citation would suffice, along with any modifications you made to the method.
@@ScientificWritingwithKarenLMcK thanks for reply. Should this statement put in the last sentence of discussion? or put in last sentence of case presentation?
You should put the statement wherever it would naturally appear in a description of the processes you used in your research, such as the methods section.
Hello Ma'am I have to ask that if someone not provide the supplementary file at initial stage of communication of manuscript. Can he provide file at the revision stage?
If reviewers need to see your supplementary file, then it should be submitted with the manuscript. There may also be an instance when an editor or reviewer suggests that a table or figure in the manuscript should be shifted to supplemental files in the revision. But follow your journal's instructions about when and how to submit such files.
@@ScientificWritingwithKarenLMcK Thank you for your reply Ma'am. Actually, my paper is conditionally accepted but editor told me to minimize the paper size. That's why I am thinking that some of the material of manuscript can be shifted in the supplementary file. Can I move like that?
Thanks for providing useful information
such a excellent way of delivering lecture
thanks a lot!

@@ScientificWritingwithKarenLMcK thanks, but the case report don't have method section......
Can you make a video on how to write a review as well as book/book chapter proposal to the editor of a journal?
Here is a link to a video about How to Write a Scientific Review Paper: ua-cam.com/video/kExJSYtv0ck/v-deo.html
Great work!
Do you know any website to host my supplementary material file?
Check to see if the journal has a platform to post supplementary material along with the paper.

Yes. You can move some material to supplemental files to shorten your paper. But be sure to reference those items in your manuscript.
