How to format your references using the Audiology and Neurotology citation style

This is a short guide how to format citations and the bibliography in a manuscript for Audiology and Neurotology. For a complete guide how to prepare your manuscript refer to the journal's instructions to authors.

Using reference management software

Typically you don't format your citations and bibliography by hand. The easiest way is to use a reference manager:

PaperpileThe citation style is built in and you can choose it in Settings > Citation Style or Paperpile > Citation Style in Google Docs.
EndNoteDownload the output style file
Mendeley, Zotero, Papers, and othersThe style is either built in or you can download a CSL file that is supported by most references management programs.
BibTeXBibTeX syles are usually part of a LaTeX template. Check the instructions to authors if the publisher offers a LaTeX template for this journal.

Journal articles

Those examples are references to articles in scholarly journals and how they are supposed to appear in your bibliography.

Not all journals organize their published articles in volumes and issues, so these fields are optional. Some electronic journals do not provide a page range, but instead list an article identifier. In a case like this it's safe to use the article identifier instead of the page range.

A journal article with 1 author
Yu H: Et in articulo mortis. Nature 2000;405:21.
A journal article with 2 authors
Spergel D, Keating B: Cosmology: The oldest cosmic light. Nature 2015;518:170–171.
A journal article with 3 authors
Deitsch KW, Calderwood MS, Wellems TE: Malaria. Cooperative silencing elements in var genes. Nature 2001;412:875–876.
A journal article with 7 or more authors
Benson DE, Conrad DW, de Lorimier RM, Trammell SA, Hellinga HW: Design of bioelectronic interfaces by exploiting hinge-bending motions in proteins. Science 2001;293:1641–1644.
