Abstract
This book guides medical researchers through all stages of transforming their scientific data and ideas into a published paper. Many researchers in medicine, including the life sciences and health sciences, struggle to get their research written and published. Manuscripts are typically rejected and/or sent back for revisions several times before ever being published. One reason for this is that researchers have not received much instruction in the specific subjects and skills needed to write and publish scientific medical papers: research methodology, ethics, statistics, data visualization, writing, revising, and the practicalities of publishing.
Contents:
Chapter 1: Introduction; References; Chapter 2: The Ethical Foundations of Medical Scientific Writing; Introduction; Moral Vices and Virtues; Responding to Ethical Misconduct; Conclusion; References; Part I: Preparing; Chapter 3: Ethics of Conducting Research; Introduction; Ethics Committee Approval; Study Registration; Written Informed Consent and Animal Welfare; Following Ethical Guidelines; Conclusion; References; Chapter 4: Foresight; References; Chapter 5: Time; References; Chapter 6: Reading; References; Chapter 7: Searching the Literature; References

Abstract
"Diagnosketch is a visual aid to explain medical diagnoses to patients at the bedside. It uses simplified images to illustrate complicated anatomy and concepts. The title, 'Diagnosketch,' combines the term 'diagnosis,' with the term, 'sketch,' paralleling the way the book combines a medical diagnosis with a simplified sketch. It includes common pathologies seen in an acute care setting, especially ones that are easier to explain with pictures"-- Provided by publisher
