了解SCI文章摘要、前言、讨论常见修回意见,写作可提前避坑!
摘要
1、The abstract needs major modification, for it lacks the significance of study. Brief overview of this area should be given, and the purpose of the study could be addressed in the end.“Methods”is not detailed enough. “Methods” and “Results” were not comprehensive and coherent, and significance of article is prominent.
解析:在摘要中,背景知识不可缺少,但不用过多介绍,一般一句话就好。研究目的需要说明,不然会让人搞不清楚你到底要做什么,在读方法和结果的时候没有目的性也会增加理解难度,给审稿人不好的印象。方法描述要在字数允许的范围内尽可能的详细,结果要与方法相呼应。最后,需要说明一下研究的意义,这点也是不容忽视的。
2、In the abstract, the methods and results need to be written in more detail for better understanding, including the concentrations and the p values.
解析:在摘要部分,方法与结果部分需要较为详细地描述,处理的浓度以及p值都要标注出来。
前言
1、The “background” section of the abstract is unacceptably vague. It does not establish the rationale for the study and needs to be rewritten. Moreover, the highlights and significance are scarcity, and the objective have to be added.
解析:引言一定要突出本研究的亮点和意义。
2、In Introduction: Describe more about the importance of using ×× in vaccines against malignant tumors.
解析:不用具体详细的描述某一机制,只需要介绍其机制目前的研究现状和进展即可。
3、In Introduction: include the objective of this study to end of this section.
解析:引言最后一段要交代清楚研究对象和研究内容。
4、The introduction is clear and well-written. Whereas, the cell surface antigens of ×× may be described here. Besides, the sentence “Recent study found that ×× is a potent inducer of chondrogenesis in ××, which could promote the expression of ××, and accelerate chondrogenic differentiation of ×× with the two-dimensional culture condition” lacks supports (references).
解析:文章中的主要检测指标要在前言中给出相应的背景介绍,避免在结果中直接出现会有些突然,但是如果是某一类指标的检测则不需要一一介绍,比如炎症因子检测,只需要说明炎症的作用就行,没有必要一一介绍所检测的指标了;另外在前言中所有的观点都要有理论依据,即参考文献的引用。
讨论
1、Discussion is not enough and reference lacks the latest research. The content of this discussion lack the comparison with previous study. These results need to contact the relevant literatures to describe the mechanism and significance. There are many similar studies, what is special about this study comparing to another study?
解析:参考文献不够新,讨论里的陈述一定要有近两年的研究,引用最新的研究更有说服力;其次要注意在讨论里与前人的研究进行比较;还有就是要在讨论里通过与前人研究的比较突出自己研究的重要性和创新性。
2、“×× from cord blood monocytes are sensitive to ×× mainly because of the immature immune system; on the contrary, ×× from peripheral blood monocytes are difficult to be affected and that is generally attributed to the capacity to maintain immune homeostasis.” Sentences such as this in the Discussion make many of this section look speculative. Enough referencing should be provided.
解析:讨论中的所有描述和推断都要有文献作为依据。
3、The manuscript needs a section on the study limitations (e.g., small sample size, generalization to humans and larger animals, relevance of induced diabetes model) as well as a conclusions section.
解析:在文章讨论中应该加入文章局限性的描述:例如样本量小,不能直接代表人或者其他大型动物等以及文章建模方法的局限性。对于当前的文章设计不能解决的问题,我们可以整理在文章的讨论中的局限性,也可以回避一些无关重要实验结果的当前不能解决的问题。
4、Discussion section was not deeply analyzed,with extension and inference.Please add some statements what is the clinical significance of this study and how could it be widely used in the treatment of diseases.
解析:讨论的内容需要应该更深入一些,对文章结果提示出的关键科学问题需系统地讨论;讨论中还需要描述本研究的价值及临床意义,这也是文章讨论中的重要内容,只有突出文章研究的应用价值才能突显文章研究的意义。
其他问题
1、The English is poor and needs to still be reworked.
解析:语言问题很难避免的,所以在SCI论文写作的时候,首先要尽量避免拼写和语法错误,至于语言问题,可以找比自己英语好的同事或朋友帮忙润色,如果想要放心,可以直接交给润色公司进行润色。
2、All the abbreviations should be written in full on first mention.
解析:专有名词在摘要、正文第一次提到时要给出英文全称。
