An abstract is a self-contained, short, powerful statement that describes a larger body of work. It may be incorporated as part of a published paper, book, grant proposal, thesis, research report, or a conference paper. An abstract of a scientific paper will be published online independently, so it should make sense when it is read alone. An abstract of a hypothesis-testing paper consists of at least four key elements, as follows: (1) study question/hypothesis/aim, (2) experiments/material and methods, (3) results, and (4) response to the question/conclusion(s). The abstract usually begins with a background and may end in applications, recommendations, implications, or speculations. The abstract is one of the many features of a manuscript that competes for the readers' attention; therefore, it should be informative, accurate, attractive, and concise. Since a huge amount of work must be compressed into a few sentences, writing an abstract may be a difficult task that needs professional skills. Here, we provide a practical guide to writing an abstract and selecting keywords for a hypothesis-testing medical paper.
摘要 是一种独立、简短且有力的陈述，它描述了篇幅更长的作品。它可以作为已发表论文、书籍、资助申请、论文、研究报告或会议论文的一部分。科学论文的摘要将单独在线发表，因此单独阅读时应该能理解其含义。假设检验论文的摘要至少包含以下四个关键要素：（1）研究问题/假设/目的，（2）实验/材料与方法，（3）结果，以及（4）对问题的回答/结论。摘要通常以背景开头，可能以应用、建议、影响或推测结尾。摘要 是稿件中众多争夺读者注意力的特征之一；因此，它应该内容丰富、准确、有吸引力且简洁。由于大量的工作必须压缩成几句话，撰写摘要可能是一项需要专业技能的艰巨任务。在这里，我们提供了一份实用指南，用于撰写假设检验医学论文的摘要和选择关键词。
