We collated some useful resources here:
http://www.equator-network.org/library/guidance-on-scientific-writing/
http://www.equator-network.org/toolkits/authors/

If you are really seeking a practical help on writing I think my favourite book is by Hall (Hall GM (ed). How to write a paper. Fifth edition. BMJ Publishing Group, Wiley – Blackwell, 2012. - also on our website), short and good!

and here is a really live example with rules put into the context - annotated article http://www.authoraid.info/en/resources/details/648/

If you are writing up an RCT - the CONSORT guidance would be also be useful
http://www.equator-network.org/reporting-guidelines/consort/ (their website also hosts a library of examples of good reporting)

Hope it helps

Best wishes,
Iveta

Does anyone know of any any well written research papers that you would like to share? I am looking for RCT's.

I saw a lot of books about writing a research article, but just don't know which one to read. Any book recommendations?

Thank you
Anoop
