(Table sample)

Table 1. Comparison of meaningful means between YORA and EORA[A14]

Values are presented as mean±SD, ratio, or number (%).[A15]

YORA, younger onset rheumatoid arthritis; EORA, elderly onset rheumatoid arthritis; ESR, erythrocyte sedimentation rate[A16].

*p-values obtained by t-test and chi-square test.[A17]

(Table guidelines)[A18]

- Tables should be double-spaced and should each appear on separate page.

- Express the units of time in the following formats: yr, mo, wk, day, hr, min, sec.
- Abbreviations used in the body of tables should be defined in a table footnote.

- If further descriptions are necessary for certain terms, use a symbol (*, †, ‡, §,∥, ¶, **…) as superscript after the term and provide the definition in a table footnote.

- Do not use a vertical line in tables.
- Present a mean and a standard deviation in the format of mean±SD with the number of responses. The statistical techniques used should be specified in the table footnotes. For a proportion, specify the number of responses and the percentage of the total, and for a correlation coefficient, show the value of correlation coefficient.
- Use a small p in ‘p-value,’ and show up to 3 decimal points. (e.g., p-value<0.001)
