IN-TEXT CITATIONS

According to this guide, NLM recognizes three types of "in-text" citations. In other words, this is how *from within the text of your document* you create pointers down to the list of references at the end of the document.  Look over the examples here.

See also In-text Citations:
"References are presented in two ways in medical publications. At the end of a journal article, book, or book chapter, all of the references that contributed to the work are presented in a list called references, end references, literature cited, or bibliography. Within the text of a publication, individual references are presented in an abbreviated format that refers back to the list. These abbreviated references within the text are called 'in-text references.'"
