Reporting Guidelines

SJCCGM uses Vancouver style:

  • Cite references in the text using Arabic numerals in the order of first appearance (“…as previously reported.¹”)
  • In the reference list, number references accordingly.
  • Use journal title abbreviations (as in PubMed/Index Medicus) where possible.
