3.11.8 Supplements

The following example illustrates the basic format:

  1. 1. Body JJ, Greipp P, Coleman RE, et al. A phase I study of AMGN-0007, a recombinant osteoprotegerin construct, in patients with multiple myeloma or breast carcinoma related metastases. Cancer. 2003;97(3)(suppl):887-892.

If the supplement is numbered, and there is no issue number, use the following form:

  1. 2. McDougle CJ, Stigler KA, Posey DJ. Treatment of aggression in children and adolescents with autism and conduct disorder. J Clin Psychiatry. 2003; 64(suppl 4):16-25.

If the supplement is numbered, and there is an issue number, use the form below:

  1. 3. Crino L, Cappuzzo F. Present and future treatment of advanced non-small-cell lung cancer. Semin Oncol. 2002;29(3)(suppl 9):9-16.

When numbered supplements have several parts, denoted by “pt 1” or by letters, each supplement having independent pagination, use the following form:

  1. 4. Rosenwasser LJ. Treatment of allergic rhinitis. Am J Med. 2002;113(suppl 9A):17S-24S.

Note: It is common for page numbers in supplements to include letters as well as numbers (eg, 17S-24S in example 4 above). Also, example 4 has no issue number.
