摘要
表格和插图是男科论文的重要组成部分。设计规范、语言精练、描述中肯的表图有助于简明扼要地呈现复杂的概念,直观高效地表达研究的成果,并为论点提供一目了然的数据和证据支持,进而有效提升论文的信度和价值。高质量的英文表图,不仅仅在于合理的结构设计,更取决于准确、简洁、规范的语言表达。笔者针对中国作者表图英文写作中的常见问题,参阅大量国际著名英文医学期刊,从表图的基本结构、标题用语、主体用语、脚注用语、时态用法等方面阐述了男科论文表图英文写作的基本规范与技巧。
Tables and figures play a critical role in enhancing the quality of an andrological paper. As visual elements, well- presented tables and figures can reduce the length of the manuscript and meanwhile efficiently capture a large amount of information by clear and concise display of detailed results and complex relationships, patterns and trends, offer explicit statistical or graphical support to important ideas, and add to the value of the whole paper. The effectiveness of a table or figure lies not only in its well-crafted structural design, but even more in its language presentation. This article presents some essential and practical guidelines to effective English writing of the title, body and footnotes of tables and figures in andrological papers.
