The Record... (cont'd)

Sharon,

I was wondering if you needed any of the articles listed as References at the end of the Adis Record. I can get summaries of articles easily from another database on Dialog—File 173, Adis Clinical Trials Insight.

I'll send you one article so you can see what File 173 offers.

To find key clinical summaries in the research literature to the drug in question, you can use a special Dialog technique called the MAP command. It enables you to extract data from the cross-reference field XR in File 107 and MAP it to File 173 (or the subscriber file 973), Adis Clinical Trials Insight.

Adis Clinical Trials Insight was reloaded in late 2006, with new fields to let you pick exactly the information you need. Updated weekly, this file is the only place to retrieve data about ongoing trials, as well as presented and published data in a single, searchable database.

It contains highly structured records of key papers, published in more than 1,300 international medical and biomedical journals, papers presented at 100 meetings and clinical data from media releases and relevant company and trial registry web sites on drugs, drug therapy, adverse drug reactions, and pharmacoeconomics. Document types include Best Evidence, Supporting Evidence and Ongoing Trial records.
