<related-article> Related Article Information
Description of a journal article related to the content but published separately.
May include a link to the related article.
Usage/Remarks
This element has 2 uses:
- First, inside the article metadata (<article-meta>), where multiple <related-article> elements can name various related articles, and
- Second, in textual content throughout the article (as part of the Journal Article Link Class Elements).
Whether used in the metadata or within the text, <related-article> permits the description of all types of “related” references wherever these occur
in an article. The @related-article-type attribute can be used to name the type or purpose of the relationship. Examples include:
- companion articles within the same issue (both sides of a controversy or the same subject for two audiences such as doctor and patient),
- a previous part of a multi-part article,
- a news item in the same issue that summarizes the article,
- a quiz on the material contained in the article,
- the article on which this letter or editorial comments, and
- the article for which this article is a correction or addendum.
