Description
This element contains a shortened version of the main article title (or of a translated version of this title), for presentation or print in products or content lists that do not have space for the full title. Typically, selected words are copied from the main title, as in the example below:

       and IV) Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC): Recent 
       Developments</title>
<subtitle>...</subtitle>

This may be used in conjunction with <shortauthors> to capture running heads that appear in print.
