Footnote

A footnote is a brief explanatory note or reference that appears at the bottom of the page, used to provide:

• Additional information
• Clarification
• Citations or references

Footnotes allow the author to include important but non-essential content without interrupting the main flow of the text.

• Cite a source (academic, clinical, legal)
• Add extra context or explanation
• Include legal disclaimers or conflicts of interest
• Clarify uncommon terminology or exceptions

The technique was first described in the early 2000s.¹⁾

This will render as a small numbered link in the body, and the full note will appear at the bottom of the page.

Use `<sup>2)</sup>` syntax for footnotes:

• Inline example:

`The patient showed complete recovery.<sup>3)</sup>`

• Multiple footnotes are numbered automatically:

`First fact.<sup>4)</sup> Second fact.<sup>5)</sup>`

• Footnotes are automatically rendered at the bottom of the page.
• They are ideal for references, clarifications, and non-critical remarks.
• For inline citations with formal references, consider a dedicated bibliography section as well.
