Style Request: Health & Human Rights

Requesting a style to accord with the journal Health & Human Rights--which seems to be a unique style, like nothing else I can find. Frustratingly. They say they follow Chicago, but the format doesn’t.

Here’s the style guide:

===They want:
IN TEXT CITATIONS: endnotes, superscript
EACH ENDNOTE MUST HAVE: multiple sources to enable one note per sentence.

==Book, Basic structure:
Author’s first initial
Author’s last name (followed by “ed” or “eds” in parentheses if it is an edited work) followed by comma
Title of book in italics (use sentence case, not title case)
Mention of 2nd (3rd, etc) edition, separated from title by a comma; do not italicize
Within parentheses, place of publication (forward slash to separate multiple places of publication [mindful that the journal may need to insert a space following the slash to facilitate final layout]), colon, name of publisher, comma, year of publication, followed by final parenthesis and a period (full stop) or comma and page numbers, using p. or pp.

Examples:
P. Farmer, Health, human rights and the new war on the poor (Berkeley, CA: University
of California, Berkeley, 2003), pp. 23–25.
F. Terry, Condemned to repeat?: The paradox of humanitarian action (Ithaca, NY: Cornell University Press, 2002).

===Book, subsequent mention
-Use “Ibid.” if the citation immediately follows same citation
-If citation is the same as one that does not immediately precede it, use 1) the last name of the author or the name of the organization and 2) (see note [number]):

Willinsky (see note 4).


===Journal articles, first citation
Basic structure:
Name of author followed by comma
Within quotation marks, title of chapter, in sentence case, followed by comma, end quotation marks
Name of journal, in full (no abbreviations), italicized
Number of journal / issue followed by year in parentheses, followed by either period or comma and page numbers. Use “Suppl” to indicate that an article is from a supplement.

Examples:
J. Pitanguy, “From Mexico to Beijing: A new paradigm,” Health and Human Rights: An
International Journal 1/1 (1995), pp. 454–460.
The PLoS Medicine Editors, “How can biomedical journals help to tackle global
poverty?” PLoS Medicine 3/8 (2006), p. e380.

====Journal articles, subsequent mention
Use same guidelines as for books:
Use “Ibid.” if the citation immediately follows same citation: Ibid., p. 29.
Ibid., pp. 135–136, citing F. Fernand, A. Ross, and H. Perry, “Assessing the causes of under-five mortality in the Albert Schweitzer Hospital service area of rural Haiti,” Panamerican Journal of Public Health 18/3 (2005), pp. 178–186.
If the citation is the same as one that does not immediately precede it, use 1) the last name of the author or the name of the organization and 2) (see note x):
See, for example, Copelon (see note 24), pp. 116–152.
