Change document citation style fails to completely update bibliography

Hello,

I am reformatting a manuscript for resubmission to a different journal and need to change the citation style from the American Medical Association to American Journal of Physiology-Renal Physiology. In the primary manuscript file with 87 references, when I update document preferences, it formats everything appropriately except that it doesn't bold the author names. However, in the smaller supplemental materials file with only 4 references, they are bolded correctly when I make the citation style change.

Does anyone know why this behavior occurs and how I can fix it?

Thanks!

Steve

I failed to mention that I am using Microsoft Word.

Does your first reference have a long list of authors? If so, you're likely seeing a version of https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/italics_in_word_bibliographies (replace "italics" with "bold")

That worked! Thank you very much, Adam.
