Abstract:
The abstract is an essential element of all phases of the research process--submission of proposals for funding, presentation at scientific meetings, and ultimately, publication. Thus, the writing of effective abstracts is an important skill for the academic clinician. Like all skills, it requires significant time and effort for its acquisitions and practice for its maintenance. The structured abstract provides guidance for both format and content, and is an important innovation.
