Upgrade StorageJournal of Psychiatry & Neuroscience
Hi,
Would really appreciate help with the citation style for JPN. I have tried editing scripts myself but find this rather time consuming. The instructions are pasted in below. Thanks for your hard work!

References should be cited in numerical order of appearance in the text and identified in-text with superscript Arabic numerals. Do not alphabetize the reference list. References cited only in tables or figure legends should be numbered in sequence with the first mention of the table or figure in the text. Authors must verify all references against the original documents.
JPN follows the reference style employed by the National Library of Medicine. Journal titles should be abbreviated accordingly (see PubMed). Samples of references cited in this style are available at www.nlm.nih.gov/bsd/uniform_requirements.html and, briefly, below.
Articles in journals
Standard journal article (list 3 authors, followed by "et al" if the number exceeds 3)
Vega KJ, Pina I, Krevsky B. Heart transplantation is associated with an increased risk for pancreatobiliary disease. Ann Intern Med 1996;124(11):980-3.
Books and other monographs
Personal author(s)
Ringsven MK, Bond D. Gerontology and leadership skills for nurses. 2nd ed. Albany (NY): Delmar Publishers; 1996.

If the issue is just "time consuming" it would certainly be appreciated if you did this yourself. Styles are coded by - scarce - volunteers with lots of requests and little time.
If you start with Vancouver style this shouldn't be too hard, since all the basic requirements are already in place.
Thanks for the quick reply!
I guess time consuming is somewhat of an understatement, last time around I spent the good part of a days work formatting a citation style. Not sure how long it takes for someone more familiar with the syntax.
But I can give it a shot.

In the end I also had to edit the bibliography manually last time as I could not find a way to bold only the author names…
This are the differences I find compared to Vancouver:
Citations:
superscript arabic numerals
Bibliography:
1. If authors >3 replaced by et al
2. Journal and book titles in italic
4. Journal titles not followed by .
3. For books, include city of publishing
eg Ringsven MK, Bond D, Bengtsson DD, et al. Gerontology and leadership skills for nurses. 2nd ed. Albany (NY): Delmar Publishers; 1996.

edit: by "let me know" I mean "post here" - I have the thread bookmarked and will see any post.
I have been trying to edit the script but am not able to get the bibliography right. Could you give me an updated prognosis? I need to consider other options, would really hate to revert to Endnote...
