Style request: Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine

Alexandre Robinot
Dear collegues,

I have to format my citation for the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine.

In the CSL style editor the closest format is DNA Research (only 20%). I tried to create a new style for this journal but unfortunately I failed.


Please, do you think someone can help me?
I thank you very much for the time that you will take for this project.


here is the guidelines for authors:
http://www.aasmnet.org/jcsm/authors.aspx

In the text the citations must be numbers in exponent:
1,3-8,19

References:

You cannot see but:
- in the bibliography the name of the journal should be in italic and abbreviated.


the structure is:
author, author, author, et al. (if more than 3 authors). Title. Abbreviated journal name in italic year; volume:pages

    Hallo Alex, you wrote: 'The journal name should be complete (not abbreviated) and in italics. Only 3 authors have to be cited, if more than 3 authors are present, firstly 3 should be named followed by comma and then an "et al".' But on the http://www.aasmnet.org/jcsm/authors.aspx I see: 'For abbreviations of journal names, refer to “List of Journals Indexed in Index Medicus."' and 'Provide all authors’ names when fewer than seven; when seven or more, list the first three and add et al.'
  • Alexandre Robinot
    Oh Thank you; I just checked and you are right.

    I must follow exactly their requirement:

    "Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine (JCSM) complies with the reference style given in “Uniform Requirements for Manuscripts Submitted to Biomedical Journals” (see International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE) online). Each reference should be cited in the text, tables, or figures in consecutive numerical order by means of superscripted Arabic numerals outside periods and commas and inside colons and semicolons. When three or more references are cited at one place in the manuscript, a hyphen should be used to join the first and last numbers of a series; commas should be used without spaces to separate other parts of a multiple-reference citation. The reference section should be included at the end of the text, following the sample formats given below. It is highly recommended that a standard bibliography program such as EndNote or ProCite be used. For EndNote users, the formatting style for JCSM should be used. For abbreviations of journal names, refer to “List of Journals Indexed in Index Medicus." Journal names are to be in italic typeface. Provide all authors’ names when fewer than seven; when seven or more, list the first three and add et al. Provide article titles and inclusive pages. Note that JCSM does not include the issue number in its reference style. Accuracy of reference data is the responsibility of the author. We cannot guarantee that citation/reference software will match all JCSM author guidelines. Failure to initially comply with JCSM’s style requirements may result in manuscripts returned to authors for correction and may potentially delay publication."

    Thank you for yout time.

    Thank you LiborA,

    I try to open your file .csl but it doesn't work.

    I try with the .csl you have created for this citation style: "Style request: NMJI" and it works well.

    I don't know why my .csl doesn't work. The message is "your .csl is not a valid style file"
  • LiborA
    Sorry, there was missing line. Download it again.
  • Alexandre Robinot
    This second file works well.

    I checked and this is perfect, the style is correct. Thank you so much.

    So this style can be add to the Zotero Style Repository to help others people I think.
