The P value shall be accurate to 3 decimal places, and the statistics shall be accurate to 2 decimal places; When P is less than 0.000, if the number of significant digits is taken to 3 decimal places, P<0.001 should be written instead of P =0.000. When the comparison between two groups is involved, the comparison method shall be described, and the specific test value may not be provided.

2.9 Unit of Measure

Please use the State Council in February 1984 promulgated the "legal units of measurement of the people's Republic of China," and the unit symbol. Note that the unit name and unit symbol shall not be mixed. For example, ng· kg-1·day-1 shall be changed to ng·kg-1·d-1; When there is more than one slash indicating division in the combined unit symbol, it shall be expressed in the form of negative power, e.g. ng/kg/min shall be expressed in the form of ng·kg-1·min-1; Slashes and negative powers cannot be mixed in combination units. The amount of symbols are in italics, such as absorbance (old optical density) symbol for A (italics).

2.10 Numeric

Implement GB/T 15835 - 1995 Regulations on the Usage of Numbers in Publications. The Gregorian calendar century, year, month, day, time and counting, measurement are used in the number of places.

The scope of the percentage and deviation, before a number of percent symbol cannot be omitted, such as: 5% ~ 95% don't write 5~95%, 50.2%+0.6% don't write 50.2 + 0.6%. Multiply the values with dimensional units and write as follows: 4 cm× 3 cm × 5 cm instead of 4×3× 5 cm 3.

2.11 statistical symbol

It shall be written in accordance with the relevant provisions of GB 3358 - 82 Statistical Terms and Symbols, commonly used as follows:①The arithmetic mean of the sample is in English lowercase m (the median is still in M); ② Standard deviation is SD; ③ Standard error is lowercase s;④ t-test is lowercase t; ⑤ Capital F for F test;⑥ Small χ 2 for Chi-square test;⑦The correlation coefficient is r in small letters;⑧ Degree of freedom is expressed in lowercase v;⑨Probability is expressed in capital P (specific test value shall be given before P value, such as t value, χ2 value, q value, etc.). The above symbols are in italics.
