摘要的質(zhì)量可影響編輯的決定,現(xiàn)在很多期刊在決定是否接收一篇論文時,摘要甚至起到了決定作用。但很遺憾,許多作者是在匆忙中寫出的摘要,摘要寫作的要點并沒有好好把握。查爾斯沃思認(rèn)為摘要應(yīng)該作為一個“standalone” 的部分撰寫,且包含非常清晰及準(zhǔn)確的全文信息,為什么要做這項研究?為此你做了什么?你發(fā)現(xiàn)了什么?你得出什么結(jié)論?
1、查爾斯沃思英國編輯認(rèn)為高質(zhì)量的摘要應(yīng)是:
-Honest and precise
-Can stand alone (search engines, sometimes all people read)
-No technical jargon
-Short and specific
-Cites no references
2、們提供給作者一個摘要的結(jié)構(gòu),希望幫助作者組織思路:
1)Background Abstract
Glossina Jitscipes juscipes is the major vector of human African
trypanosomiasis, commonly referred to as sleeping sickness, in Uganda. In
western and casicm Africa ihc disease has distinct clinical manifcsiaclons and is caused by two different parasites: Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense
and T. b. gambiense. Uganda is exceptional in that it harbors both parasites,
which arc separated by a nanow 160-km belt. This separation is puzzling
considering there arc no restrictions on the movement of people and animals
across this region.
2) Methodology/Principal Findings Abstract
We investigated whether genetic heterogeneity of G .f. Juscipes vector
populations can provide an explanation for this disjunct distribution of the
Trypanosoma parasites. Therefore, we examined genetic structuring of G .f.
fuscipes populations across Uganda using newly developed microsaccllitc
markers, as well as mtDNA. Our data show that G .f. fuscipes populations
arc highly structured, with two clearly defined clusters that arc separated by
Lake Kyoga, located in central Uganda. Interestingly, we did not find a
coirclation between genetic heterogeneity and the type of Trypanosoma
parasite transmitted.
3) Conclusions/Signifkance Abstract
This lack of a correlation between genetic structuring of G .f. fuscipes
populations and ihc distribution of T. b. gambiense and T. b. rhodesiense
indicaccs (hat it is unlikely that genetic heterogeneity of G .f. fuscipes
populations explains the disjunct distribution of the parasites. These results
have important epidemiological implications, suggesting that a fusion of the
two disease distributions is unlikely to be prevented by an incompatibility
between vector populations and parasite
我們知道許多研究者通過一些學(xué)術(shù)搜索引擎來查找論文信息,其算法機制都是一樣的,在搜索引擎看來論文標(biāo)題與搜索詞的相關(guān)度是第一重要的,其次是摘要中出現(xiàn)的搜索詞,因此作者也應(yīng)該在摘要中布局好關(guān)鍵詞或短語,最好集中在3-4個不同的關(guān)鍵詞詞組中。
