Q.	referencing journal - vancouver system?	Related Search: Quotations
	what does this mean? BMJ 1998;123:147-189 i get that it is from the journal british medical journal (hence the BMJ) and that it is from 1998, but what does the rest mean? If i have a journal i want to reference with a year, volume, number and pages how would i reference that? e.g BMJ, year 1987, volume 8, no.7, pg200-300?? Any help appreciated
A.	That first citation might be wrong or incomplete, because volume 123 of BMJ is not 1998. In the 1998 issue there are a couple of articles starting on page 147 which are “MRI is best technique…..”, and “Cognitive behaviour therapy…”, but it has nothing to do with the numbers 123. I reckon the writer of the paper you got that from lost track of the volume number and decided to make it up??? [Link] / For your journal reference: Vancouver style now uses the National Library of Medicine guide “Citing Medicine” as the authority for referencing rules (as stated in October 2008 update at [Link] / ), so for a journal reference see sample at : [Link] Best, RH [Link]

Q.	How is living in Vancouver, WA different than living in Portland, OR?	Related Search: Portland
	Do many people live in Vancouver and commute to Portland? Is the transit system as good in Vancouver as it is in Portland? Which is a better place to live, Portland or Vancouver, WA?
A.	Portland is more urban although just south of Vancouver. Oregon has no sales tax but does have a state income tax. Washington has sales tax but no state income tax. The benefit and/or preference depends upon the individual situation. As for public transit both the Portland system "Tri-Met" and the Vancouver system "C-Tran" serve each city with commuter routes as well as local service. Portland being larger has a more vast transit network although both work together to link the cities. It is a quick and easy commute between either although more people seem to live in Vancouver and commute to Portland than the reverse and to that end more express bus service is geared in that direction. Some traffic congestion is usually the case on the interstate bridge but the HOV bus lanes avoid most of that. The primary Tri-Met route between the two cities is #6 and the primary C-Tran route between the cities is #105 although many other choices exist. Good Luck!

[edit] History

The Va ^[2] whose version "should be considered as the authoritative style" according to the British Medical Association (BMA)^[1].

The 2007 ICMJE edition, at paragraph IV.A.9.b. Reference Style and Format, refers to the detailed style guide at the NLM's Citing medicine. Several versions of the Uniform requirements were published, including the 1991 BMJ publication^[3], the 1995 CMAJ publication^[4] and the 1997 Annals of Internal Medicine publication.^[5] Journals were asked to cite the 1997 requirements. As of 2004, the editors of Haematologia simply "invite[d]" their authors to visit www.icmje.org for the 2003 revision of the Uniform requirements.^[6]

[edit] Usage

[edit] Labelling citations

References are numbered consecutively in order of appearance in the text – they are identified by Arabic numerals in parentheses (1), square brackets [1], superscript¹, or a combination^[1] such as used in Wikipedia.

[edit] Format of citations

Different formats exist for different types of sources, e.g. books, journal articles etc.

[edit] Journal articles

Standard journal articles

Leurs R, Church MK, Taglialatela M. H₁-antihistamines: inverse agonism, anti-inflammatory actions and cardiac effects. Clin Exp Allergy. 2002 Apr;32(4):489-98.

As an option, if a journal carries continuous pagination throughout a volume (as many medical journals do) the month and issue number may be omitted:

Thomas MC. Diuretics, ACE inhibitors and NSAIDs - the triple whammy. Med J Aust. 2000;172:184–185.

If there are more than six authors, the first six authors are listed followed by "et al.":

Note, however, that the NLM lists all authors for articles.

As an option, a unique identifier from a database may be added to the citation:
