Q: How to write titles in clinical research?
The title for any journal article should reflect the nature of the research presented in it and should not be very general or broad; it should inform the readers about the core focus area of your research. The same applies to clinical research as well. Your title should correlate with the purpose of your study, the theories supported by your research, the variables tested, the design, methodology adopted, etc. Avoid vague and very long titles; also, do not use abbreviations/acronyms in the title. It is best to use keywords that relate to your topic in the title so that other researchers can easily find your work when they search for a related topic. Sometimes, journal articles have specifications of word counts; hence, you will need to make sure that you adhere to these guidelines.
