PubMed has now added the option to get an APA style citation. Beware: Databases do make citation mistakes, so always double check the database's "APA" citation against an APA style Guide. Here are the steps to follow to get a start on your APA citations from PubMed:

1. Click on the article title to go into the full record. On the right-hand side click on Cite.
2. The default citation format is National Library of Medicine Style (NLM). Click on Format at the bottom of the pop-up citation box, and change it from NLM to APA.
3. Consider copying directly from the box rather than hitting the Copy button. If you hit the Copy button it strips out the needed italics. You're now ready to paste the citation into your Word document and double check it for accuracy.
