Titles and subheadings
Article titles and case titles, as well as subheadings, should be in sentence case.
Correct:
- Myeloma with extraskeletal involvement
- Hepatocellular carcinoma
- Skull
Incorrect:
- myeloma with extraskeletal involvement

Rare exceptions to the universal use of capitalization for the initial letter of a title exist, e.g. the 'k' in k-space is always written in lower case

Bulleted and numbered lists should not be capitalized unless the term deserves a capital on its own account (e.g. name of someone). Read more about bulleted and numbered lists.
Abbreviations
The use of capitals in abbreviations depends on the specific abbreviation.
