<LI>As a result of the changes in the 2003 Medical Subject Headings (MeSH<SUP><FONT size="-2">&#174;</FONT></SUP>)
hierarchy for age groups, the search for All Child: 0-18 years has been modified to:<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Infant [mh] OR Child [mh] OR Adolescent [mh]<BR>

Related note: a search for <STRONG>child</STRONG> in PubMed will no
longer retrieve citations indexed with terms that used to be indented under Child, i.e., Adolescent, Infant, and
Infant, Newborn. Searchers who want to include studies for ages 0 - 18 should use "All Child" on the Limits screen
or incorporate the
search terms mentioned above.

<LI>A new age grouping has been added:<BR>
Middle Aged &#43;
Aged: 45&#43;
years
