MEDLINE® Now Reloaded on DataStar

All MEDLINE files have been reloaded on DataStar. The changes outlined in the article "MEDLINE Reloaded for 2002" are reflected as follows in the DataStar MEDLINE files.

• MeSH® changes. MeSH 2001 is still available in MV01. To ensure that your Alerts profiles reflect the new MeSH 2002, please compare MV01 with MVOC (which contains the 2002 MeSH) and change your search strategies where necessary.



• Comments and Corrections. The additional information is displayed in the CM (Comments) field on DataStar.



• Information Provider. A new field has been introduced with the field label IP?nformation Provider.



• Keywords. Keywords provided by organizations other than the National Library of Medicine are displayed in the DE field, indicated by the word "Keywords."



• Additional information supplied by non-NLM suppliers. All these supplementary items are included at the end of the abstract (AB) and are searchable free text. An "other" abstract (that is, one which was not written by the NLM) may also be included; this will also appear in the AB field.
