In addition to AMA style, many scientific journals ask authors to follow the Uniform Requirements for Manuscripts Submitted to Biomedical Journals.  These guidelines were developed by the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE) at a meeting in 1978.  The meeting was held in Vancouver, Canada; hence, this style is also sometimes referred to as "the Vancouver style". 

For help with ICMJE style, see the link below.
