Not the submission process, not reviewer #2, not the editor. Writing the abstract of the paper is often a far greater challenge. And there’s one simple reason for that: most people have a hard time figuring out what’s important for the reader. I ‘ll be sharing tips in next posts - stay tuned!
3rd: conclusion/impact/implications
1 sentence is often enough; sometimes 2 are necessary. Provide a short, concise conclusion - what is the punchline? Do you have sth *important* to comment on regarding implications? Could be therapeutic implications or a finding that changes a dogma. Be specific.

2nd: the findings
The longest and main part of your abstract. Here you should explain:
i) what you did and how
ii) what you found
An effective abstract doesn’t bombard the reader with details; you can’t describe all your results. Stick to major.
*Must*: use friends from other fields as beta readers

1st: 1-2 (max) sentences - intro
Present the known and its caveat. It can be as brief as 1 sentence (we know x, but y (somehow linked to x) is unknown) or 2 sentences. My view is that abstracts with more than 2 introductory sentences rarely work well. Specific, clear, only the absolutely necessary.

Tip 1: Follow a tight structure
There’s not only one way, but there certainly is a “safe” and always successful recipe. Your abstract consists of 3 parts:
1st: 1-2 (max!) sentences - intro;
2nd: the longest - the findings;
3rd: 1 sentence (2 could work, but often unnecessary) - wrap it up.
