AMA (American Medical Association) citation style is a numbered referencing system used in American medical journals and publications. Based on the AMA Manual of Style, it provides specific guidelines for citing medical literature, clinical studies, and healthcare research in the United States.
AMA style uses superscript numbers for in-text citations that correspond to numbered references at the end of the document. This system is optimized for medical writing where precise attribution of clinical findings and research is essential for patient safety and scientific accuracy.

Use AMA style for American medical journals (like JAMA), medical school papers, clinical research, and healthcare publications in the United States. It's the standard for AMA-affiliated journals.
Both use numbered citations, but AMA has specific formatting for American publications, different punctuation rules, and follows AMA Manual of Style guidelines rather than ICMJE standards.
List all authors for up to 6 authors. For 7+ authors, list the first 3 followed by 'et al.' Use commas between all authors, not 'and' before the last author.
