Journal Title: Malaysian Orthopaedic Journal - Year 2012, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
This analytical editorial is written to highlight and illustrate, with examples, the style, form and format generally adopted by Malaysian, regional and Western authors in scientific publications, and is not meant to be critical or cynical. Authors may choose any style of their preference, but it is worthwhile and indeed useful for any one author to adhere to a particular style or form throughout his or her writing and academic career for ease of search for purposes of citation or reference of a publication, whether in a journal or book.
