The document provides information on referencing styles, specifically the Vancouver referencing technique. It discusses key terms related to referencing, the importance of referencing, types of references, in-text citations, and examples of referencing journal articles, books, editorials, and electronic sources based on the Vancouver style. The style is a numbered referencing technique developed by the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors.
In this referencing style, we shall discuss especially about “APA” format of the referencing style.
A citation tells the readers where the information came from. A reference gives the readers details about the source so that they have a good understanding of what kind of source it is and could find the source themselves if necessary.
Citations occur in the body of the text with direct quotes and paraphrases to identify the author/publication for the material you have used. a "citation" is the brief, often parenthetical information in the body of a work/paper/article.

APA Reference List with Example - 7th Edition APA StyleThiyagu K
The reference list at the end of a paper provides the information necessary to identify and retrieve each work cited in the text. APA Style generally requires reference lists, not bibliographies. A reference list cites works that especially support the ideas, claims, and concept in a paper; in contrast, a bibliography cites works for background or further reading and may include descriptive notes. This presentation provides guidelines for creating reference list entries with specific sections focusing on each reference element. This presentation provides examples of references in APA style and their corresponding in-text citations.

I. Over and over again families are left without their loved
ones, to the acts of suicide. Suicide doesn’t only
include the people who have died but also the attempts
that have been made. There are warning signs and
prevention of suicide but that has not made suicide low
on the death rate.
A. Suicide carries a social and moral meaning in all
societies. At both the individual and population
levels, the suicide rate has been long understood to
correlate with cultural, social, political, and
economic forces. (Institute of Medicine, 2009)
B. Given its unique nature, research on suicide faces a
series of obstacles that limit progress in the
understanding, prevention, and treatment of the
problem.
II. Suicide is not something new but something that is a part
of our history.
A. This history of suicide dated back to Egypt, Greece,
and Rome where suicide was used as part of a ritual.
i. Suicide in ancient Egypt was viewed as a neutral
event, because death was merely a passage from one
form of existence to another. It was simply a
means of avoiding, disgrace, abandonment, guilt,
Outline 3
cowardice, or loss of a loved one. Or an
expression of general mistrust of the world.
(A1b2c3, 2009)
ii. Cleopatra committed suicide as part of a ritual.
B. Some of the causes of suicidal behaviors can accompany
many emotional disturbances, including depression,
bipolar, and schizophrenia.
i. Suicidal behaviors often occur in response to a
situation that the person views as overwhelming,
such as social isolation, death of a loved one,
emotional trauma, serious illness, aging,
unemployment or financial problems, guilt
feelings, or dependence on alcohol or other drugs.
(Health, 2009)
ii. When people are suicidal, they often mistakenly
believe that they are doing their friends and
relatives a favor by taking themselves out of the
world. These irrational beliefs often drive their
behavior. (Health, 2009)
C. There are early warning signs, critical signs, and the
prevention of suicide.
Outline 4
i. Many people who attempt suicide talk about it
before making the attempt.
a. Early signs of suicide include: Depression,
statements or expressions of guilty feeling,
tension or anxiety, nervousness, impulsiveness.
Critical signs include: Sudden change in
behavior, especially calmness after a period of
anxiety, giving away belongings, attempts to
“get one’s affairs in order”, direct or
indirect threats to commit suicide, direct
attempts to commit suicide. (Health, 2009)
III. Suicide attempts and threats should always be taken
seriously. About one-third of people who attempt suicide
will repeat the attempt within 1 year, and about 10% of
those who threaten or attempt suicide eventually do kill
themselves.

COUN 646
Research Paper – Abstract and Annotated Bibliography Instructions
Abstract
An abstract is a 1-paragraph summary of the paper that does not exceed 250 words. Do not indent the first line in abstracts, and do not include citations. The abstract must be flush with the left margin and double-spaced.
Example:
Abstract
Graduate students often struggle with learning how to write in APA format. One of the best ways to learn APA format is to seek assistance from university writing centers. This study examined the improvement in writing exhibited by a sample of one hundred students in a graduate writing course. Fifty students relied on “self-taught” APA format resources provided by the university and fifty students received assistance from the university writing center. The students receiving assistance from the writing center made 25% fewer errors on the exit essay than the group using only the “self-taught” resources. The results indicate that university writing centers can be more helpful in learning APA format than relying on “self-taught” resources.
Annotated Bibliography
An annotated bibliography is a collection of a minimum of 10 one-paragraph summaries of the 10 sources you intend to use in the final paper. The sources must be current or dated within the past 10 years. The ability to use resources older than 10 years is left to the discretion of the instructor. At least 50% of these sources need to be from empirical journal articles.
Do not paste the article abstract in the paper. Annotations must be your own summary of the article. The summary must include the findings of research that was included in the article. Do not simply say the authors conducted a study without providing a summary of the findings.
The annotations include the full current APA-formatted citations of the source, and the annotations are listed in alphabetical order based on the first author’s last name. The assignment must include a title page in current APA format.
Example:
Grice, R. (2011). The value of university writing centers. Journal of Counseling, 23(1), 56–58.
University writing centers can be very helpful in learning APA format. Grice found in a study of 100 graduate students in a graduate-level writing course that those receiving assistance from the university writing center demonstrated marked improvement by reducing errors by 25% in comparison to the “self-taught” group. The author concludes that university writing centers can be very helpful to graduate students.
Requirements:
1. Include a current APA-formatted title page with all of the required components.
2. List the annotations in alphabetical order according to the first author’s last name.
3. All sources must be from academic and peer-reviewed journals or books such as the course resources.
4. Resources must be dated within the past 10 years unless permission to use older resources is given by the instructor.
Submit the assignment as 1 Word document through the assignment link in Module/.

Instructions for writing a paper
Content
Organize your paper into sections with headings. For a term paper the sections might be:
Topic
Introduction
Main point #1
Main point #2
Main point #3
Summary
References
(Figures – if not embedded in text)
· Length (7-8 pages).
· Make sure that when you turn in your paper, you have read through it in its final form. This may prove difficult to do after the many editing sessions that you have already enjoyed with it. It is often very helpful to have a friend read it through as well as this lends a fresh perspective.
Format
· Please double-space all your text. That way it is much easier for the instructor to annotate your work.
· Use 1” margins all round. Use 12 pt font. (or 14 font with 1.5 space).Number your pages.
· The final copy should be clean and neat.
Style
· Try to write in the third person whenever possible. For the most part you will be presenting facts. Although, for debate papers you will be arguing a certain point of view and it may therefore be appropriate to use “I” now and then, avoid repeated use of the first person.
· Avoid clichés. (“the bottom line”, “at the end of the day”, “all in all” etc.)
· Avoid slang and informal terms of expression. (“Well, …”, “It was like, we went…”)
· Avoid rhetoric. (“How should I interpret these results?”, “I asked myself - What do people think about global warming?”)
· When you use equations in your paper, make sure that every symbol in the equation is explained. Number equations sequentially for easy referencing.
Grammar and spelling
· Don’t rely on the spelling checker to find all your spelling errors. You must also read through you document to check that “their”, “there” and “they’re”, for example, are correctly used.
· Read and re-read your manuscript. Edit it more than once or twice. Avoid the repetitious use of the same word in a sentence or a paragraph. Edit away all redundancies. I do not want to read the same information over and over again, simply expressed in a slightly different way each time. Remove unnecessary words. Be clear and succinct.
References
· Cite articles by author(s) and year within your text. If there is a single author, the last name and year will suffice – e.g. (Hutchinson, 1995). If there are two authors, include both names and the year of the publication – e.g. (Hutchinson and Osborne, 1978). For more than two authors, use the first author with et al. – e.g. (Hutchinson et al., 1984).
· Include the list of references at the end of your paper. Do not include references you have read but not cited. List the references alphabetically by the first author’s last name.

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path

ABDOMINAL TRAUMA in pediatrics part one.drhasanrajab
Abdominal trauma in pediatrics refers to injuries or damage to the abdominal organs in children. It can occur due to various causes such as falls, motor vehicle accidents, sports-related injuries, and physical abuse. Children are more vulnerable to abdominal trauma due to their unique anatomical and physiological characteristics. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, tenderness, distension, vomiting, and signs of shock. Diagnosis involves physical examination, imaging studies, and laboratory tests. Management depends on the severity and may involve conservative treatment or surgical intervention. Prevention is crucial in reducing the incidence of abdominal trauma in children.

read the original Vancouver document.
Prof. A Y Taha/ Referencing7/10/2019 6
7. Vancouver Group
• In 1978, a group of editors met in
Vancouver, British Colombia, Canada.
• The group called itself the International
Steering Committee, a name that was later
changed to the International Committee of
Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE).
• Because of its original meeting place,
however, the ICMJE has often been called
“the Vancouver group”.
• The main topic at the 1978 meeting was
formats for references.
Prof. A Y Taha/ Referencing7/10/2019 7
8. What is the Vancouver Referencing
Technique?
• A uniform set of requirements for
bibliographic references.
• Also known as: Uniform Requirements
for Manuscripts Submitted to Biomedical
Journals.
• It follows rules established by the
International Committee of Medical
Journal Editors.
• It is a "numbered" style.
Prof. A Y Taha/ Referencing7/10/2019 8
9. Vancouver Style
• The commonly used style in medical and scientific
journals.
• Reference list identifies references cited in sufficient
detail so that others may locate and consult them.
• The reference list appears at the end of the
essay/report with the entries listed numerically and
in the same order that they have been cited in the
text.
• If you have cited sources from the Internet, these
should also be in your reference list.
• Punctuation marks and spaces in the reference list
and citations are very important. Follow the
punctuation and spacing exactly as in the following
examples.
Prof. A Y Taha/ Referencing7/10/2019 9
10. Citation
•The way that you (the writer)
refer to texts that you wish to
include in your work.
•It is in the form of a number that
correlates with a source in your
reference list. If the source is
referred to again, the same
number is used.
•Citation (Extract) also refers to
the information retrieved from a
bibliographical database search.
Prof. A Y Taha/ Referencing7/10/2019 10
11. Look at this Paragraph…
• Foreign body aspiration is common [1]. It is
a life-threatening condition (2). Children
under the age of 5 years are the usual
sufferers.3 Family negligence is to be blamed
[1,3,4] particularly in low socioeconomic
class population [1-5]. The event of
aspiration is characterized by chocking
while eating, laughing or crying [1]-[4].
Death may occur due to suffocation with a
big foreign body blocking the larynx.1,6
Strider may result from inhalation of a
foreign body that resides within the larynx
or trachea.2,4,6-8 It is vital to educate parents
to take care of their children to prevent this
potentially fatal problem [1p32] [3].
Prof. A Y Taha/ Referencing7/10/2019 11
12. Look at this Paragraph…
• John et al [9] as well as other authors 10,11
believe that the incidence of foreign body
aspiration can be greatly reduced by
increasing the awareness of people. William
[cited in 5] states that unresolved cough in a
child should be looked at seriously as it may
indicate a foreign body aspiration. Ali et al
quoted Ahmed in their article [12] who
recommends bronchoscopy for children
with unresolved cough to exclude foreign
body aspiration.
• As one can see, there are different methods of in-text citation.
Journals may differ in their preferred citation style. This is
usually explained in the “Instruction to Authors” posted in the
web site of each journal.
Prof. A Y Taha/ Referencing7/10/2019 12
13. • In the Vancouver Style, in-text
citations are identified by Arabic
numbers in round brackets.
When multiple references are
cited at a given place in the text,
use a hyphen to join the first and
last numbers that are inclusive.
Use commas (without spaces) to
separate non-inclusive numbers
in a multiple citation e.g.
(2,3,4,5,7,10) is abbreviated to
(2-5,7,10).

Pharmacol 1998;55:697-701.
• Note:
• Author(s) name: Surname followed by
2 initials separated by comma. Do not
use ‛and’ before the last name.
• All author names should be written.
However, some journals require to
write ‛et al’ after the 3rd or 6th author's
name in the list of references.
Prof. A Y Taha/ Referencing7/10/2019 14
15. (Et al) in (Vancouver) Style
• The words et al are used in the in-text
citation if there are 3 or more authors
but not in the reference list.
• Reference list example:

• A piece of writing, displayed in a prominent position,
that expresses a strong view on a matter of importance
to a publication’s readers. They are also called leading
articles or leaders.
• The name of the journal should be in standard PubMed
abbreviations, full journal name should not be written.
BMJ stands for British Medical Journal.
● So, for editorial, no author is given as it represents the
opinion of the journal as a whole rather than a person.
● Nevertheless, sometimes, there is a “signed editorial”
written by a personal author.
● So, the essential elements for referencing journals are:
author, title of article, journal title, date, volume
number, issue number, page numbers.

29. Vancouver: Librarian's System
Why?
● Librarian is a person, typically with a
degree in library science, who
administers or assists in a library.
● For a librarian, each written work is just
a number, whether done by the most
brilliant scientist or the most ordinary
writer.
● He works by giving each work a number
(tag).

30. Harvard Style
• “Harvard Style” is a generic term for any
referencing style which uses in-text
references such as (Smith, 1999) and a
reference list at the end of the document
organized by author name and year of
publication.
• Huffman, L. M. (1996). Processing whey
protein for use as a food ingredient. Food
Technology, 50 (2), 49-52.

31. Vancouver vs. Harvard
• Both systems have advantages.
• Vancouver is good for categorizing and
indexing.
• Harvard is good for research and
reading.
• Vancouver can incorporate good points
of Harvard and become the prime
referencing system.
Prof. A Y Taha/ Referencing7/10/2019 31
32. Bibliography
• The bibliography is a separate list from
the reference list and should be arranged
alphabetically by author or title.
• A bibliography lists sources not cited in
the text but which are relevant to the
subject and were used for background
reading.
• A list of material you have used for
information or inspiration but have not
referred to directly in the text.

33. The EndNote Referencing Style Software
• EndNote is a software program that assists in creating
reference list. It can be downloaded from the internet.
• It can be used to import references from online database,
using Pubmed as an example.
• It can be used to create a custom group and add a reference
to it.
• It can be used to find full text to download PDFs for
references.
• It can be used to insert a reference in a Word document.
• It can be used to format a bibliography, using the Vancouver
style as an example.
• It can be used to add page numbers to a citation.
• And even more…

34. Take Home Messages
• Good academic work should be well
referenced.
• Overall, recent articles from high quality
specialist journals are preferred as
references. Avoid citing articles from
predatory journals.
• The academic writer should master
referencing techniques and be capable of
proper in-text citation and creating lists
of references.
Prof. A Y Taha/ Referencing7/10/2019 34
35. Take Home Messages…
• Referencing Software Programs are available.
They are very useful for the academic writer to
facilitate citing while writing as well as
importing references from websites, inserting
citation, creating and formatting reference
lists…etc.
• The time-consuming and tedious process of
referencing that is used be done manually and
liable for making mistakes can be replaced by
this precise quick computer job just like many
things in our digital world.
• Nevertheless, EndNote should not be our
‟Start” in studying Referencing!!
