Standards of practice and uniformity in references style.

Abstract:

:Authors are usually invited to follow the instructions to authors in scientific journals, because this section is likely to contain unique requirements, such as the references style requested. Authors not only must accurately check the instructions, but are also expected to verify references against the original documents before submitting the article, consuming a considerable amount of time. This aspect may contribute to the large number of references errors in scientific manuscripts, some of which would be prevented by introducing a more homogeneous and uniformed style. A variety of international, peer-reviewed journals currently requires a rather different style, especially for the numbers of authors to be cited, the placing of the year of publication, the style of the journal title. A broad implementation of reasonable standards of practice and consensus guidelines for the format of manuscript references should be promoted for an advantageous process for both the journals and the authors.

  • Aberrant glycosylation and cancer biomarker discovery: a promising and thorny journey.

    abstract::Glycosylation is among the most important post-translational modifications for proteins and is of intrinsic complex character compared with DNAs and naked proteins. Indeed, over 50%-70% of proteins in circulation are glycosylated, and the "sweet attachments" have versatile structural and functional implications. Both ...
