Substantial contribution and accountability: best authorship practices for medical writers in biomedical publications.

CONCLUSIONS: Authors and contributors have a responsibility to create a publication that is accurate and true to the study results, but only authors must provide a substantial contribution and are accountable for that contribution. Contributions made by authors and non-author contributors should be fully described in the publication, to enable the reader to assess credit and responsibility.
