Journals are increasingly requesting the submission of a “graphical” or “visual abstract” alongside the body of the article.

This is a single, concise, pictorial and visual summary of the main findings of the article. It could either be the concluding figure from the article or better still a figure that is specially designed for the purpose, which captures the content of the article for readers at a single glance (Writing rules / Graphical Abstract, https://dergipark.org.tr/en/pub/tudod/page/16811).
