常见问题

How many authors do I include before stopping?

List all authors. If more than 6, list first 6 followed by 'et al.' - but this is primarily for reference lists, not in-text.

Do I use full journal titles or abbreviations?

Vancouver typically uses standard journal abbreviations (found in Index Medicus). Full titles are acceptable if abbreviations are unknown.

What's the format for DOI in Vancouver?

Add at the end: doi: 10.xxxx/xxxxx or include the full DOI URL.
