Greetings,

I am an Algerian doctor currently working on an interesting case of ARC syndrome in a 4 month infant.
I want to publish a case report about it and I was wondering if there was any doctor with some research experience who could guide me through the process since this would be my first time submitting an article. What journals should I go for, what format? Any help is welcome. I will gladly include you in the authors.

BMJ Case Reports is a solid landing spot for case reports, and also has a good number of examples.
