AMA vs Vancouver Citation
Compare AMA and Vancouver numbered citation systems and generate AMA references online.
AMA style grew out of Vancouver style, and the two share the same numbered, order-of-appearance system. The differences sit in the details: AMA uses superscript numerals in the text and its own punctuation and journal-abbreviation rules, while Vancouver variants often place numbers in parentheses or brackets. If your instructor asks for Vancouver, an AMA numbered reference is usually a short step away.
