How to keep the abbreviation dot in journal field of bibtex?

TeX - LaTeX Asked by WingFung Hung on December 17, 2020

The abbreviation dot in journal field was omitted. How can I maintain it?

Here is my main.tex:

begin{document}
...
bibliographystyle{vancouver.bst}
bibliography{abbr.bib}
end{document}

In abbr.bib file:

@Article{buchfink2015fast,
  author    = {Buchfink, Benjamin and Xie, Chao and Huson, Daniel H},
  journal   = {Nat. Methods},
  title     = {Fast and sensitive protein alignment using DIAMOND},
  year      = {2015},
  number    = {1},
  pages     = {59--60},
  volume    = {12},
  publisher = {Nature Publishing Group},
}

Compile:

Buchfink B, Xie C, Huson DH. Fast and sensitive protein alignment using
DIAMOND. Nat Methods. 2015;12(1):59–60

I Expect ‘Nat. Methods.‘ not ‘Nat Methods.’

One Answer

The bibstyle vancouver.bst has a function remove.dots, which (as its name suggests) removes dots from author and journal names. If you want to keep the dots, you will have to modify the bibstyle to not call remove.dots inside the format.journal.date and article functions.
