Citation Style Request

Request to include the style for the journal "Shock"

There is a previous request in the forum and I tried to make a similar style work, but have not been completely successful. I used American J of Resp Critical Care, which is close. Shock is a good journal and should be included. The style can be found here: http://edmgr.ovid.com/shk/accounts/ifauth.htm

    (we also don't really go by the quality/impact factor of a journal. If nobody requests the style we won't make it simply)

  • That examples you gave are not adapted to the journal's style, neither in-text nor bibliography.
    Please adapt accordingly, not just copy from the link I gave you.
  • Thank you for being patient with me. I assume I have to use the same references, but in the style of the journal. I will try again. I see the some errors in my previous response. Hopefully this will do it. thanks for your time.

    In text citation (1,2) in superscript.

  • Hi,

    Here's a draft.

    In case you're wondering why this is not superscript numbers in text. We go by .pdfs of papers as that is the proper typesetting. The web form of a paper is oftentimes with a different style that they do themselves.

  • It looks great to me. The only thing that I can see that is different the "within text citation style" in the journal has the number in brackets superscripted. I can live without that but it would be nice if it conformed. This had been very helpful. Thank you.
  • Did you see what I wrote?
  • Perfect. Thank you.
