TOXCENTER updates mirror those of MEDLINE - more precise author group fields and 2009 MeSH terms
23. February 2009
The MEDLINE segment of Toxicology Center (TOXCENTER) has been updated with the 2009 edition of Medical Subject Headings (MeSH).
TOXCENTER now also includes the same four author name fields that are
offered in MEDLINE:
(/AU) - Author names
(/AUGR) - Group Author names (corporate)
(/AUCL) - Collaborator names (consortium, committee, study group)
(/AUTH) - Author Group names (all of the above)
Each of these fields is searchable, displayable, selectable, and sortable.
A complete description of the changes to MeSH for 2009 can be viewed at http://www.nlm.nih.gov/pubs/techbull/nd08/nd08_mesh.html.
