Procedures

Click Registration button when submitting your abstract for the first time.
Use of ciphertext and plaintext are available, however, we recommend ciphertext use for the following reasons.
(Please note that even if you click plaintext, UMIN display suggesting the use of ciphertext will appear.)

*Request for Use of Ciphertext

Use of ciphertext prevents third person wiretapping the registrant's passwords.
Therefore the secretariat office advises you to submit your abstract using ciphertext.
However, there may be cases where ciphertext cannot be used (e.g. There are conflicts in internet services provider setting, or browser version may be old). In such cases, please use plaintext.
In plaintext, password may be wiretapped, therefore, plaintext carries risk in security and personal information protection. Do not use passwords used for hospital information systems and e-mails. Use of plaintext requires consideration of such risks.

<Entering symbols, Greek Letters and other special characters>
Symbols and Greek Letters must be entered using the respective codes from the list of "Abstract Body" on the Registration site. (You may cut and paste from the list.)

  • Underline: <U></U>
    Example: <U>BBB</U>=BBB
  • If you wish to use "<" (less than) or ">" (greater than) in your abstract (e.g. p<0.05), to distinguish special character codes "< > "explained above from single uses of "<" or ">", enter "&gt;" for ">" and "&lt;" for "<".
