<h3><a name = "profiles">Papers of DNA Pioneer and Nobel Laureate Francis Crick Added to Profiles in Science&#174; </a></h3>
<font size="2"><strong>March 1, 2005</strong> [posted]</font>
<p>
<p>
The papers of DNA Pioneer and Nobel Laureate Francis Crick are the most recent collection added to NLM <a href="http://profiles.nlm.nih.gov/">Profiles in Science</a> Web site, dedicated to the lives and works of prominent 20th century biomedical scientists.
</p>
<p>
This latest collection on Profiles in Science represents a close collaboration between the National Library of Medicine and the Wellcome Library for the History and Understanding of Medicine in London, which holds the Crick papers. The Crick collection brings to 14 the number of notable researchers and public health officials whose personal and professional records are featured on Profiles.
</p>
<p>
The name of Francis Crick (1916-2004) is inextricably linked to the discovery of the double helix of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) in 1953, considered the most significant advance in biology since Darwin's theory of evolution. The insights of Crick, and his collaborator, James D. Watson, into the structure of DNA and into the genetic code made possible a new understanding of heredity at the molecular level.
</p>
<p>
The collection can be accessed from the Profiles in Science homepage <a href="http://profiles.nlm.nih.gov/">Profiles in Science</a>.

<h3><a name = "rxnorm">RxNorm</a></h3>
<font size="2"><strong>March 18, 2005</strong> [posted]</font>
<p>
RxNorm provides standard names for clinical drugs (active ingredient + strength + dose form) and for dose forms as administered to a patient. It provides links from clinical drugs, both branded and generic, to their active ingredients, drug components (active ingredient + strength), and related brand names. NDCs (National Drug Codes) for specific drug products (where there are often many NDC codes for a single product) are linked to that product in RxNorm. RxNorm links its names to many of the drug vocabularies commonly used in pharmacy management and drug interaction software, including those of First Databank, Micromedex, MediSpan, and Multum. By providing links between these vocabularies, RxNorm can mediate messages between systems not using the same software and vocabulary.

<h3><a name = "aged">Use Aged with Caution</a></h3>
<font size="2"><strong>March 25, 2005</strong> [posted]</font>
<p>
The MeSH heading Aged is generally defined as a person 65 or over. In PubMed&#174;, when you search aged with no search field tag: </p>
<dl>
<dd>
aged
</dd>
</dl>
<p>
automatic term mapping (ATM) translates the term as:
</p>
<dl>
<dd>
"aged"[MeSH Terms] OR aged[Text Word]
</dd>
</dl>
<p>
From a quick glance at the above search query, nothing seems amiss - the text word portion of the ATM translation will pull in non-indexed, in-process citations. However, the Text Word search pool of terms also includes textracted MeSH headings. In the results you will notice some citations that are indexed with the MeSH heading, Middle Aged, which covers age 45-64 years. Those were retrieved because of the "aged" textracted portion of the multi-word heading Middle Aged. Note that the heading Middle Age was changed for 2004 MeSH to Middle Aged.
</p>
<p>
One method to avoid this situation is to use the search field tag when searching Aged:
</p>
<dl>
<dd>
aged [mh]
</dd>
</dl>
<p>Alternatively, you could choose "Aged" from the Ages pull-down menu on PubMed's Limits screen. Either will force PubMed to search the term as a MeSH heading only and not use its automatic term mapping feature. Please note that this method will eliminate in process citations from your retrieval because those citations have not been indexed with MeSH Headings. If you wish to include in process citations you could search:
</p>
<dl>
<dd>
aged [mh] OR aged [tiab]
</dd>
</dl>
<p>
The [tiab] search will pick up the presence of the term, aged, in titles and abstracts. Please note that your retrieval may still include false drops but will no longer include the citations found as a result of the textracted Middle Aged MeSH heading.

<h3><a name = "space">Space Life Sciences Data Hiatus Ends</a></h3>
<font size="2"><strong>April 15, 2005</strong> [posted]</font>
<p>
The hiatus for Space Life Sciences data added to MEDLINE or LocatorPlus has ended. The hiatus which began as of 5:00 pm on March 12, 2004 ceased when a new NASA contract was implemented in February 2005. (For additional information see the Technical Note, <a href="http://www.nlm.nih.gov/pubs/techbull/mj04/mj04_technote.html#space"><em>Space Life Sciences Data Hiatus. NLM Tech Bull. 2004 May-Jun;(338):e1.</em></a>.) Newly created Space Life Sciences data began being added to LocatorPlus (and hence, NLM Catalog, the Entrez database version) and MEDLINE/PubMed at the end of March 2005.

<font size="2"><strong>April 15, 2005</strong> [posted]</font>
<p>
A new link called Special Queries will be added to PubMed's blue side bar. Like the Clinical Queries link that takes you to a page providing specialized PubMed searches for clinicians, the Special Queries link provides access to a directory of topic-specific PubMed queries. The directory includes links to:
</p>
<ul>
<li>Queries Targeted for Clinicians and Health Services Researchers, including a listing for the standard Clinical Queries, Health Services Research (HSR) queries, and the Cancer Topic Searches feature (offered by the National Cancer Institute).</li>
<li>Subject queries, such as AIDS, Bioethics, Systematic Reviews.</li>
<li>Special Search Queries or interfaces for complementary medicine, History of Medicine, and MedlinePlus health topics.</li>
<li>Journal Collection queries.</li>
</ul>
<p>
The Special Queries directory provides links to either special search interfaces, or pre-sets the Limit function of the standard PubMed interface to the selected subject or journal subset.
</p>
<p><em>[Editor's Note: This feature was added to PubMed on April 29, 2005.] </em></p>

<h3><a name = "pubmed">PubMed's&#174; Enhanced Translation for Entry Terms Expands to Substance Names</a></h3>
<font size="2"><strong>April 28, 2005</strong> [posted]</font>
<p>
PubMed's <a href="http://www.nlm.nih.gov/pubs/techbull/nd04/nd04_atm.html">enhanced</a> automatic term translation which was introduced for MeSH terms in November 2004 has been expanded to Substance Names also.
</p>
<dl>
<dd>Example: elidel </dd>
<dd>Translates to: ("pimecrolimus"[TIAB] NOT Medline[SB]) OR "pimecrolimus"[Substance Name] OR elidel[Text Word]</dd>
</dl>
<p>
The ("pimecrolimus"[TIAB] NOT Medline[SB]) portion of the translation is intended to increase the number of citations retrieved in non-MEDLINE (e.g., in process) citations.
</p>
<p>

<p>
One hundred fifty seven new chemical records have been added to NLM's Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB) since June, 2003 (<a href="http://toxnet.nlm.nih.gov/help/toxnet_update.html">http://toxnet.nlm.nih.gov/help/toxnet_update.html</a>).
</p>
<p>
The <a href="http://toxnet.nlm.nih.gov/cgi-bin/sis/htmlgen?HSDB">Hazardous Substances Data Bank</a> is part of the National Library of Medicine's TOXNET system. It focuses on the toxicology of over 4,700 potentially hazardous chemicals, and is enhanced with information on human exposure, industrial hygiene, emergency handling procedures, environmental fate, regulatory requirements, and related areas.
</p>
<p>
Chemical records are added to HSDB on a scheduled basis. They are peer reviewed by the HSDB Scientific Review Panel of outside <a href="http://toxnet.nlm.nih.gov/cgi-bin/sis/htmlgen?DescSRP.htm">experts</a>.
</p>
