How to Cite Work from the 2012 Annual Meeting

August 14, 2012

In 2012, Annual Meeting abstracts were published exclusively online for the first time. This change affects the way abstracts should be cited. Instead of the traditional way of listing a page number at the end of the citation, the abstract number is used:

AAN Annual Meeting abstract published in print (before 2012):
Rocca W, Grossardt B, Ahlskog E, Bower J, De Andrade M, Maraganore D. The Mayo Clinic Cohort Study of Oophorectomy and Aging: results for dementia and cognitive impairment. Neurology 2006;66(suppl 2):A216. Abstract.

AAN Annual Meeting abstract published online (2012 and after):
Cheung T, Flatow V, Ben-Haim S, et al. Status dystonicus following deep brain stimulation surgery in DYT1 dystonia patients. Neurology 2012;78(suppl 1): P01.227.
