before those that the Editorial Board consider to make observations and/or requirements
for text improvement or reissue.

The syntax must be used in a concrete and direct way. Avoid information
redundancy. Do not use esthetic complements of literary art writing, potentiate scientific
communication.
Use appropriate structure and content organization. The text must follow a
logical and understandable sequence. (Cohesion and Cohesive devices).
Use and write the measurement units property. The International System of
Units (S.I) should be used as much as possible. Nevertheless, in case the work demands the
use of other alternative systems such as ‘Anglo-Saxon’, ‘Imperial’, ‘Cegesimal’, etc., it
is recommended that the results include equivalence in the S.I.
Do not overuse abbreviations. The first time they appear in the text must
be identified by writing in parentheses () next to the original term.
References must be written according to the standards established by
“Perfiles” Editorial Committee, which is Vancouver Style. Cite as far as possible articles
published in printed or digital journals and books so as to avoid referencing directly from
web pages.
These elements must be verified in detail by the author (s) of the publications before being
presented to the editorial board.
