Style Error: [Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health]

jstoler
In-text citations for this journal should be superscript numbers, not bracketed numbers as currently configured for this style. I cannot find a style guide for this journal, but every article on their site is formatted with superscript numbers. Thanks to anyone who can make this edit.

    no, that's on purpose. See the author guidelines for all BMJ journals here: http://journals.bmj.com/site/authors/preparing-manuscript.xhtml#references
    specifically
    Where more than one reference is cited, these should be separated by a comma, for example,[1, 4, 39]. For sequences of consecutive numbers, give the first and last number of the sequence separated by a hyphen, for example,[22-25]. References provided in this format are translated during the production process to superscript type, and act as hyperlinks from the text to the quoted references in electronic forms of the article.

    Thanks for clearing that up!
