Tables and figures are very useful tools to support the author's point or opinion. It should be made according to instructions for the authors of the given Journal. The Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society requires simple and clear English titles and explanations for the tables, figures and photos, which should be attached at the end of the manuscript. The author examined correctness of the tables and figures in the Jormnal of Korean Neurosurgical Society Volume 26. In 1997, 240 articles published in the Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society. All 240 articles used at least one table or a figure. Tables were used in 157 articels, of which 107 articles(68.2%) have at least one incorrect table. Blanks in the field(26.2%), omitting the column headings(25.2%), and incorrect footnotes(19.6%) were common errors in the tables. Figures were used in 208 articles, of which 31 articles(14.9%) have at least one incorrect figure. Identifiable name or hospital number(35.5%), wrong numbering(29.0%), and duplication of tables and figures (19.4%) were common errors in the figures. It is important for the contributors to keep the instruction. To improve the quality of the journal, proper education for the manuscript and meticulous review of an article are necessary. It may be useful to illustrate an example of a table in the instruction of the Jormnal of Korean Neurosurgical Society.

Like the Alma Ata declaration1 of “health for all by the year 2000,” the Dakar framework for action2 and “education for all by 2015” will not be achieved as envisioned. Of the many determinants and barriers to universal access to health and education, the intersection of health with education itself represents a major barrier. The social determinants of health3 can themselves pose barriers to education. Maternal and infant mortality and morbidity, homelessness, hunger and malnutrition, poor sanitation, lack of security and life-sustaining resources impact on both health and education, and “damaged brains and bodies” cannot learn optimally. Health education aims to address these barriers in a special manner and on several levels, beginning with pre-school formal and non-formal community-based health education of children, their parents and community health workers, through formal kindergarten to grade 12 education of schoolchildren (the Philippine Government K-12 implementation) as well as nonformal education of out-of-school youth (Cf: the “Kareton Klassroom” concept of 2011 CNN Hero of the Year Efren Peñaflorida). Tertiary undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate education in health professions and allied medical professions is the unique mission of the University of the Philippines Manila, as the National Health Sciences Center. Together with other public and private institutions, government and non-government organizations and the private sector (including the Philippine Society of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, the Philippine College of Surgeons, and the Philippine Medical Association), tertiary health education should aim to make an impact on all other levels of health education in particular, and education in general. This effect should happen during the process of education, and not just after — a synchronous multilevel model that is well-entrenched in the medical and health care professions. Consultants teach residents and medical students, residents teach medical students and health workers, medical students teach health workers, and so on, as all teach patients and their care-givers also.
