of the investigation. Previous work should be quoted only if it has a direct bearing on the present problem. Methods Methods must be described in sufficient detail to allow the investigation to be interpreted and repeated by the reader. Any modification of previously published methods should be described and the reference given. If the methods are commonly used, only a reference to the original source is required. Drugs When a drug is first mentioned it should be given the generic or official name, followed in parentheses by the chemical formula only if the structure is not well known, and by the capitalized proprietary name. Results Description of results, while concise, should permit repetition of the investigation by others. Data should not be repeated unnecessarily in text, tables and figures, and unwarranted numbers of digits should be avoided. Significance should be given as values of probability. The desired positions of tables and figures may be indicated by written instructions enclosed within lines and brackets, for example: (TABLE III near here) Discussion The discussion should not merely recapitulate the results, but should present their interpretation against the background of existing knowledge. It should include a statement of any assumptions on which conclusions are based. Acknowledgements Acknowledgements will be printed in small type. They should be brief, and should include reference to sources of support and sources of drugs not freely available commercially. References There should be a table of references at the conclusion of the paper, commencing on a new sheet. References must be numbered consecutively in the order in which they are first mentioned in the BRITISH JOURNAL OF ANAESTHESIA text, with the exception of review articles, when references should be arranged alphabetically. References in text, tables and legends should be identified by arabic numbers appearing in the text in square brackets. Use the style of references adopted by the U.S. National Library of Medicine and used in Index Medicus. The titles of journals must be given in full. The names and initials of all authors should be listed. Text references to "unpublished observations " or "personal communications" should not be included in the final list of references. Authors are responsible for verifying that the wording of references to unpublished work is approved by the persons concerned. Papers which have been submitted and accepted for publication should be included in the list, the phrase "in press" replacing volume and page number. Information from manuscripts submitted but not yet accepted should be cited in the text as unpublished observations. Examples of correct forms of references: Journals (list all authors) ; Brown B R jr, Gandolphi A J. Adverse effeas of volatile anaesthetics. British Journal of Anaesthesia 1987; 59: 14-23. Chapter in a Book: Hull C J. Opioid infusions for the management of postoperative pain. In: Smith G, Covino B G, eds. Acute Pain. London: Butterworths, 1985: 155-179. Monographs: Moore, D C. Regional Block, 4th edn. Springfield, Illinois: Charles C Thomas, 1979. Restrict references to those that have direct bearing on the work described and cite only references to books and articles published in Index Medicus journals. It is essential that authors verify the content and detail of references which they list against the original articles, as this responsibility cannot be accepted by either Editors or publishers. Tables All tables should be on separate sheets and be capable, with their captions, of interpretation without reference to the text. They should be numbered consecutively with roman numerals. Units in which results are expressed should be given in brackets at the top of each column, and not repeated on each line of the table. Ditto signs are not used. Footnotes are not used.
