Similar to rticles package, but targetted to biomedical journals. Provides draft rmarkdown files for each journal and reference word documents that are tailored to the specifications of the journal.
# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("lwjohnst86/fost")
To create a draft of the journals outline as an R Markdown file, create either through the File -> New File -> R Markdown -> From Template
or run the command:
# Find the specific journal name using the command `fost::templates()`. Example
# for Diabetes Care:
rmarkdown::draft("manuscript", "diabetes_care", package = "fost")
To knit to the journal's properly formatted Word or PDF document, include this YAML option
# Should be of the form
# output: fost::journalname_manuscript
# Example is:
output: diabetes_care_manuscript
in the YAML front matter of the R Markdown file.
