New titles on MEDLINE
Women's Health and Expert Review of Gastroenterology & Hepatology journals accepted for coverage in MEDLINE
Future Medicine Ltd announced that its journal Women's Health (ISSN: 1745-5057) has been selected for coverage in MEDLINE.
Maintained by the U.S. National Library of Medicine, MEDLINE (Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online) is a premier bibliographic database containing approximately 13 million references to journal articles in life sciences.
Women visit a physician nearly twice as often as men and have unique health issues that often require special diagnostic and screening tests or procedures. Elisa Manzotti, Editorial Director of Future Medicine commented; 'This field of medicine has emerged as one of the most important in recent years.' We are delighted that Women's Health has been accepted by MEDLINE. She continued; 'We would like to thank the Editorial Board for their input and guidance in targeting and evaluating topical, pioneering content.'
Women's Health is produced bimonthly in print and online formats on a rapid publication basis, with articles subject to peer review by three independent assessors. The journal has an international expert authorship and offers review articles, primary research, editorials, technology reports, interviews, perspectives and a variety of added-value content.
Dr JoAnn Manson, a key member of the Women's Health Editorial Advisory Panel, commented on the inclusion of the journal in MEDLINE, 'Women's Health has been highlighting the unique health issues that women face since its inception and has extremely high quality articles. The journal provides an excellent resource for clinicians who care for women and are committed to providing outstanding health care. Inclusion in MEDLINE means that this information will now be more accessible than ever to specialists in this community.'
Dr Manson is Chief, Division of Preventive Medicine at Brigham and Women's Hospital, and Professor of Medicine and the Elizabeth F. Brigham Professor of Women's Health Harvard Medical School.
Also accepted for inclusion in MEDLINE in only its second year of publication is Expert Review of Gastroenterology & Hepatology, part of the Expert Review series, which is also published under the Future Science Group banner.
The National Library of Medicine MEDLINE selection process is managed by an advisory committee, the Literature Selection Technical Review Committee, composed of authorities knowledgeable in the field of biomedicine, such as physicians, researchers, educators, editors, health science librarians and historians, to review and recommend the journal titles NLM should index. MEDLINE is searchable for free using PubMed at http://pubmed.gov.
