MEDLINE/PubMed

The NLM Gateway from the National Library of Medicine at http //gateway.nlm.nih.gov/gw/Cmd allows for searching a number of databases (including MEDLINE/PubMed and ClinicalTrials.gov) using a single search. 

Medline/Pubmed http //www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez. 

The National Library of Medicine is another principal unit of the NIH. The 10-story Lister Hill Center houses the Lister Hill National Center for Biomedical Communications and the National Center for Biotechnology Information. Both are components of the National Library of Medicine. The Library produces and publishes Index Medicus, a comprehensive monthly listing of articles appearing in the world s leading medical journals. The Library also operates a computerized Index Medicus, known as MEDLINE (PubMed), and has pioneered the introduction of large medical bibliographic databases. 

Each GenBank record must have at least one reference or citation. It offers scientihc credit and sets a context explaining why this particular sequence was determined. In many cases, the record will have two or more reference blocks, as shown in Appendix 3.1. The preceding sample indicates a published paper. There is a MEDLINE and PubMed identifier present that provides a link to the MEDLINE/ PubMed databases (see Chapter 7). Other references may be annotated as unpublished (which could be submitted) or as placeholders for a publication, as shown. 

Medhne MEDLINE (Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online) is a bibhographic database. It contains more than 16 million references to journal articles starting from 1949 till present. All the records in MEDLINE are indexed with Medical Subject Headings (MeSH). MEDLINE is a part of PubMed and covers the subjects of biomedicine and health, chemical sciences, bioengineering, etc. MEDLINE is the primary component of PubMed (http //pubmed.gov) a link to PubMed is found on the National Library of Medicine (NLM) home page at http // www.nlm.nih.gov. The result of a MEDLINE/PubMed search is a list of citations (including authors, tide, source, and often an abstract) to journal articles and an indication of free electronic full-text availability. 

PubMed The US NLM at the NIH maintains PubMed as part of the Entrez information retrieval system. It is a free search engine for searching citations in MEDLINE. PubMed also provides access and hnks to the other Entrez molecular biology resources. PubMed also provides links to other sites providing full-text articles. 

MeSH MeSH is a huge controlled vocabulary (or metadata system) for the purpose of indexing journal articles and books in the life sciences. Created and updated by the US NLM, it is used by the MEDLINE/PubMed article database and by NLM s catalog of book holdings. MeSH can be browsed and downloaded flee of charge on the Internet. The yearly printed version was discontinued in 2007.

The search identified case reports and case series of occupational contact dermatitis to propacetamol (a prodrug of paracetamol) and para-aminophenol (a breakdown... 

For the therapeutic relevance of a pharmacy preparation Martindale and Medline/PubMed. 

Medline covers primarily biomedical literature, containing more than 13 million citations (October, 2002) of articles from more than 4600 journals published since 1958 [18]. The database covers basic biomedical research, clinical sciences, dentistry, pharmacy, veterinary medicine, pre-clinical sciences, and life science. Medline, a subset of PubMed, is a bibliographic database produced by the US Nationcil Library of Medicine (NLM). The database is available free of charge via SciFinder Scholar or PubMed [19]. 

Also databases of scientific literature (such as PUBMED, MEDLINE) provide additional functionality, e.g. they can search for similar articles based on word-usage analysis. Text recognition systems are being developed that automatically extract knowledge about protein function from the abstracts of scientific articles, notably on protein-protein interactions.

The number of Pubmed Medline citations containing the keyword Fluorescence resonance energy transfer or Fluorescence resonance energy transfer + Plants anywhere in the text over the past 27 years. Although the technique has become very popular generally, its potential has yet to be fully exploited in plant research.

Access to Medline and PubMed is provided through the National Library of Medicine at http //www.nlm.nih.gov. MEDLINE contains bibliographic citations and author abstracts from more than 4000 biomedical journals published in the United States and 70 other countries. The service provides titles and abstracts for over 130 chemistry journals.

The aim of this chapter is to review the current knowledge on dairy food consumption and obesity-related chronic illness. Recent articles published in PubMed and Medline databases were critically appraised to describe the current knowledge and propose directions for future research. 

The PubMed site (http //www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Entrez) is developed by the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) at the National Library of Medicine (NLM), located at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). It has been developed in conjunction with publishers of biomedical literature as a search tool for accessing literature citations and linking to full-text journals at web sites of participating publishers. This site allows online access to the Medline database containing bibliographic citations and abstracts from journals dating back to 1966.

With the arrival of the World Wide Web and its ability to facilitate global communication came the opportunity to expand the services of the NLM. In 1997, the cumbersome methods of searching the MEDLINE database were replaced with user-friendlier search systems, namely Internet Grateful Med and PubMed. Moreover, searching via these resources was now free. These search systems fueled a 10-fold increase in the use of MEDLINE to 75 million searches annually. Today, more than 250 million MEDLINE searches are performed each year. In addition to MEDLINE, users can access almost any of the NLM databases from the NLM health information page, http //www.nlm.nih.gov/hinfo.html. 

The NLM developed PubMed as a user-friendly search tool to explore MEDLINE. For each citation listed in a search result, the user has the option to click on Related Articles, which takes the user to a listing of additional citations that are related to the search topic. Additionally, PubMed offers access to publisher Web sites for full-text articles, a citation matcher (service that assists a user in finding a complete citation), and access to the molecular biology databases of the NCBI. One of the newest features of PubMed is called Cubby, a page on the site that allows the user to store a search and update it in the future (users need to register for this free service). AIDSLINE soon will be added to PubMed. A user can search MEDLINE and 14 other NLM databases (e.g., AIDSLINE, AIDSDRUGS, TOXLINE) via Internet...
