he <em>NLM Classification</em>, available online at <a href="//wwwcf.nlm.nih.gov/class/"> //wwwcf.nlm.nih.gov/class/</a>, incorporates all additions and changes to the schedules and index from April 2006 through March 2007. The <a href="//www.nlm.nih.gov/class/terms_cond.html">PDF version</a>, originally launched October 2006 (see <a href="//www.nlm.nih.gov/pubs/techbull/nd06/nd06_technote.html#0"><em>NLM<span class="registered">®</span> Classification Now Available in PDF Format. NLM Tech Bull. 2006 Nov-Dec; (353):e1</em></a>), has been updated with 2007 classification data. The 2007 edition also includes a revised animated tutorial (Quick Tour) on searching the <em>NLM Classification</em>.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h2>Major Changes</h2> <br />
|
|
<p>
|
|
The WC (Communicable diseases) schedule was the major area of focus for the 2007 edition:
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dd>
|
|
Some class number captions were revised to reflect current Medical Subject Heading (MeSH) terminology. For example:
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>At WC 240, <em>Septicemia</em> was changed to <em>Sepsis</em>.</li>
|
|
<li>At WC 400, <em>Spirochete infections</em> was changed to <em>Spirochaetales infections</em>.<br /><br /></li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</dd>
|
|
|
|
<dd>
|
|
A few instructional notes were added or modified to clarify classification practices. For example:
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>At WC 142, the caption was changed from <em>Control measures</em> to <em>Public health control measures</em>, e.g., <em>Contact tracing</em>.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</dd>
|
|
</dl>

<h2>Other Changes to the Schedule</h2>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
WC 755 and WF 205 were modified to allow the addition of Table G.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
Selected class number captions were augmented to clarify their scope, e.g., at W 740, <em>Forensic psychology</em> was added to the caption.
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
Selected schedule captions were revised to reflect changes in MeSH, e.g., at WD 200.5.H8, <em>Dyslipidemias</em> was broadened to <em>Lipid metabolism disorders</em>.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
Various instructional notes were added or modified to clarify classification practices, e.g., a note was added at QU 300 (Cells) to clarify classification of cells of a particular tissue or organ.
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h2>Changes to the Index</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Forty-five new index entries were created of which twenty-seven are from the 2007 MeSH; the remainder are MeSH terms from previous years.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Numerous main index entries and cross references were modified to reflect changes in the MeSH vocabulary. In particular, some major categories of index terms affected by MeSH changes were:
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dd>Nutrition terms, e.g.,
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dd><em>Child Nutrition</em> to <em>Child Nutrition Physiology</em><br /><br /></dd></dl>
|
|
</dd>
|
|
|
|
<dd>
|
|
Male versus Female distinction, e.g.,
|
|
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dd><em>Circumcision</em> changed to <em>Male Circumcision</em><br /><br /></dd>
|
|
</dl>
|
|
</dd>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<dd>Bladder terms, e.g.:
|
|
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dd><em>Bladder Diseases </em>to <em>Urinary Bladder Diseases</em></dd>
|
|
</dl>
|
|
</dd>
|
|
</dl>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Various instructional notes were added to index entries to clarify classification practices. For example, to account more fully for their microbiology or public health aspects, classification guidance has been added to the index under certain food and beverage terms.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
All index entries pertaining to the aforementioned schedule additions and changes were modified.
