………… has been reported1 ………
………… based on Sardjito2 ……… ..
………… Winstein& Swartz3 did ...
………… by Avon et al.4 ……….
The authors are responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the reference. The reference is sorted by number (Vancouver style) at the end of the writing and in the same order as the one quoted in the text. In quoting bibliography with authors less than or equal to six people, all authors must be included. When authors number seven or more, only the first six authors are listed and followed by et al.
