Systematic reviews of over 250 clinical conditions. Recently, the biomedical library began subscribing to Clinical Evidence, an international peer reviewed journal that publishes systematic reviews of over 250 clinical conditions. These reviews are updated regularly and include additional evidence based medicine (EBM) resources to provide busy clinicians with access to the very latest and most relevant medical knowledge for treatment decisions. Clinical Evidence not only uses systematic reviews (including Cochrane reviews) in their summaries, but also includes relevant randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that have been published after the review’s search date or RCTs that were not included in the original review if they are deemed appropriate. If there are no good quality systematic reviews identified, primary studies retrieved by their search and appraisal process will be included, including quality observational studies if appropriate. Clinical Evidence systematic Over 250 reviews updated dailycontaining latest and most reviews can be thought of as relevant medical knowledge for treatment decisions can be found “umbrella reviews,” as they in the Clinical Evidence database. summarize the best evidence across a condition, rather than focusing on a specific intervention within that condition. If no good quality evidence is located the summary will state so. Clinical Evidence’s contents are driven by questions instead of by the availability of research evidence, so rather than starting with the evidence and summarizing what is there, important clinical questions are identified and then a search for and summary of the best available evidence to answer them is compiled. Clinical Evidence can be accessed from the database list on Clinical Evidence reviews summarize the best evidence across a condition rather than focusing on a specific interventon. the library’s web page http:/ www.biomedicallibrary. southalabama.edu/library/.

Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) on TOXMAP - Judy Burnham
TOXMAP, http:// developed by the National Library of Medicine, uses United States maps to visually display data from the EPA’s Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) and Superfund Programs. Particular industries are required by Federal Law to annually report emission of certain chemicals. TOXMAP shows, graphically, where these emissions have occurred. Users can search the system by location (such as city, state, or zip code), chemical name, chemical name fragment, release medium, release amount, facility name and ID, and can filter results to those residing within a particular geographic region. It also included mortality data and hospital locations. TOXMAP also overlays map data from other entities such as U.S. Census population information, income figures from the Bureau of Economic Analysis, and health data from the National Cancer Institute and the National Center for Health Statistics. Searches can be saved for later analysis. toxmap.nlm.nih.gov/toxmap/

Five-Year Impact Factors Added to the
PubMed® launches significant new features
- Beverly Rossini
- Jie Li
The journal impact factor is a measure of the frequency with which the “aver-
age article” in a journal has been cited in a particular year. The impact factor will help you evaluate a journal’s relative importance, especially when you compare it to others in the same field. The impact factor is calculated by dividing the number of current citations to articles published in the two previous years by the total number of articles published in the two previous years. Five year impact factors have been added to the Journal Citation Report (JCR). This will give researchers a better picture of the journal. In addition, Eignefactor Scores and Article Influence Scores have also been added to JCR. The following table shows the added scores.
Eigenfactor Scores and Article Influence Scores rank journals much as Google ranks websites. Scholarly references join journals together in a vast network of citations. Algorithms use the structure of the entire network (instead of purely local citation information) to evaluate the importance of each journal. Eigenfactor.org reports journal prices as well as citation influence. In collaboration with journalprices.com, Eigenfactor.org provides information about price and value for thousands of scholarly periodicals. While the Eigenfactor Scores and Article Influence Scores do not incorporate price information directly, the Cost-Effectiveness Search orders journals by a measure of the value per dollar that they provide. Eigenfactor.org contains 115,000 reference items and not only ranks scholarly journals in the natural and social sciences, but also lists newsprint, PhD theses, popular magazines and more. In so doing, it more fairly values those journals bridging the gap between the social and natural sciences. Eigenfactor Scores and Article Influence Scores adjust for citation differences across disciplines. Different disciplines have different standards for citation and different time scales on which citations occur. The average article in a leading cell biology journal might receive 10-30 citations within two years; the average article in leading mathematics journal would do very well to receive two citations over the same period. By using the whole citation network, JCR’s algorithm automatically accounts for these differences and allows better comparison across research areas. For more information about and search for Eigenfactor scores and Article Influence, go to http://www.eigenfactor.org/.

Expect some big changes to PubMed® very soon; in fact, the new mantra should be: Use Advanced Search. The familiar search page will be undergoing visual and functional changes. The tabs (Limit, Preview/Index, Clipboard, History, etc.) will be gone and are currently not maintained. These functions will be available in Advanced Search; so for full functionality, use the Advanced Search. One caveat: notice that where the “go” button appeared in the Simple Search, now a “clear” button appears. Make sure you hit the “search” button which is on the far right or use return to begin the search. Other than this glitch, there are some very positive new PubMed® features to get acquainted with. In the PubMed®Advanced Search interface you can view your search details in the same box as your search history. You can combine previous searches with Boolean operators and new search terms. You can set limits and use a new Citation Sensor where you can search by the usual author, article title, journal name OR by simply using journal title, volume, issue, and page number. You will also notice a difference in the way the citations appear: they now appear by title first rather than by author. You can also display your search results sorted by title rather than by most recent article indexed. There are four new PubMed® sensors: Gene Sensor checks the query entered in the search box and if it detects the symbol for a gene found in the Gene database, a “Gene Information” box displays above the search results with links to organismspecific information and the full report in Gene (see Figure 1). As with the other Sensors, Gene Sensor will evolve over time and is being phased in, so all users will not see it initially.
Figure 1 - continued on page - 5 -
PubMed® continued from page -4The Drug Sensor detects whether a drug name is present in a user’s search when results are viewed in the Summary format and presents information from other resources that you can link to and read more (see Figure 2). At this time, about 200 drug names are included from PubMed Clinical Q&A, a collection of evidence-based medicine summaries. These summaries have attributions and can be used to learn more about current treatment practices and the level of evidence that supports them.
Figure 2 Citation Sensor is a new PubMed® feature that matches searches with citations. It recognizes combinations of search terms that are characteristic of citation searching, e.g., volume/issue numbers, author names, journal titles, and publication dates, which it then matches to citations. If your search invokes the Citation Sensor, you will see a yellow area above the retrieval with links to one or more citations for your consideration. Please note: the Citation Sensor will not work with terms entered with search tags, e.g., chen [au]. Consumer Level Drug Information is a sensor that links to drug information on the consumer health level. Other useful new features are the ability to send searches to a collection, email address, or an RSS feed without sending to the clipboard. If you haven’t looked at the Preferences in the My NCBI homepage, you need to. One easy change to Common Preferences is to turn on highlighting of search terms in results. Another good feature is to apply PubMed® search filters. Here you can specify “full text” and see which results are held by the USA Biomedical Library next to your full search results. If you would like to know more about PubMed® features, comtact your liaison librarian for a personalized lesson.

DeGowin’s Diagnostic Examination 9 edition on - Trey Lemley
th
According to one prominent review of DeGowin’s Diagnostic Examination, “no other resource gives the student or practitioner a better introduction to the art, science, and craft of the physical examination than this classic work.”1 DeGowin’s is both a physical examination textbook and an excellent point of care guide. With references to articles from major medical journals [e.g., NEJM, Lancet, Annals of Internal Medicine, and JAMA], each chapter is independently reviewed by faculty members of the University of Iowa College of Medicine.2 DeGowin’s is arranged into four parts. Part I provides the essentials of history taking, documentation, and physical examination. Part II [Chapters 4 to 14] is organized in the sequence in which the clinician traditionally performs the examination. Most of the chapters in this section are arranged in the same order: 1. Overview of the particular organ system in question; 2. Discussion of the anatomy of the region of the body in question; 3. Description of the physical examination of the region or system, in the usual order of performance; 4. Discussion of symptoms of relevance to the body region/organ system; 5. Listing of physical signs in the examination of the region or system; 6. Explanation of diseases and syndromes commonly included in the differential diagnosis of symptoms and signs in the body region and system under discussion. DeGowin’s has certain helpful features to make the search process easier. • First, useful points of differentiation are listed after the DDX symbol. • Second, a section entitled Clinical Occurrence (following the description of selected symptoms and signs) is a list of diseases often associated with the symptom or sign in question. Furthermore, the

Click on the link entitled Find E-books at Library’s webpage organizational scheme of this section allows the clinician to narrow the DDX to basic mechanisms of disease, to include congenital, endocrine, idiopathic, infectious, inflammatory/immune, mechanical/traumatic, metabolic/toxic, neoplastic, neurologic, psychosocial, or vascular. To access the 9th edition of DeGowin’s, go to the Library’s homepage at http:// biomedicallibrary.southalabama.edu/library/ and click on the link entitled “Find E-books.” When the new page opens, click on “Access Medicine” under the heading “Ebook Databases.” When the next page opens, click on the “Textbooks” tab and then scroll down to the link entitled “DeGowin’s Diagnostic Examination.” (Footnotes) 1 http://www.doody.com/DEJ/Service/ ViewTitle.asp?SID={29803B26-F88B-4D118B01-D379218CC1C5}&ISBN=9780071478984 2 http://www.accessmedicine.com/ preface.aspx?resourceID=534

Medpedia, http://www.medpedia.com/, is a wiki of healthcare information that has been developed in conjunction with Harvard Medical School, Stanford School of Medicine, Berkeley School of Public Health, University of Michigan Medical School and other leading global health organizations. The information is available to anyone; however, only physicians and PhDs are allowed to edit the content (after approval by the Editor.) Others can suggest changes, but these must be approved by an Approved Editor before they are included in the document. Medpedia is intended as a resource for both health care professionals and health care consumers. Users can “follow” a page and receive notification when an article is updated.

Health and Wellness Information Available at the Health Information Resource Center - Geneva Staggs
With the opening of the Health Information Resource Center in January, 2009, a consumer health information service has been initiated with hospital patients in mind. A touch screen kiosk has been set up with links to quality websites that can be used to answer the questions of patients and their families. Ready access to information to guide their decisions about their own health care is crucial to their continued health. A basic collection of 20 books has been purchased to support this service and the books are included in the “New Books” column on page 8 in this issue. In SOUTHcat the location is “Health and Wellness Collection.” They are shelved adjacent to the kiosk and will be used in the library. The new Health Information ReThe new USABiomedical Library Facebook page is one place to get source Center, on the third floor of the the latest updates and tips from the Biomedical Library blog as well as USA Medical Center Hospital, is also open exclusive medical news and research information shared by our very own to health care professionals and health care librarians. It also offers yet another opportunity to ask a librarian, or just let students and is provided to support the us know what you're thinking. You can get there anytime by visiting information needs of clinical practice and biomedicallibrary.southalabama.edu/facebook. education.

Interlibrary Loan Articles: 10 Articles/Month Without Charge - Dr. Jonathan Scammell, Chair Biomedical Library Advisory Committee
- Jie Li
Users of Clinical Pharmacology are now able to access journal abstracts and, where available, full journal articles via links to PubMed and MD Consult databases. This new feature provides the ability to refer to deeper referential content by clicking on the PubMed icon in the reference links located within the Clinical Pharmacology monograph to aid in researching evidence-based information. The Biomedical Library links to our online journals from PubMed citations if you access PubMed from the library’s website.
Beginning 2009 Fall Semester, each faculty member can request up to 10 interlibrary-loan articles/month from the Biomedical Library (BL) free of charge. For additional articles that need to be obtained in a given month by interlibrary loan, the BL will charge $5 per article. The average cost to the BL of obtaining a document through interlibrary loan is $25, translating into a $250 value to each faculty member per month and significant saving on additional articles. During the past year, there were a total of 818 interlibrary loan requests from faculty members in the Colleges of Medicine, Nursing, and Allied Health combined. A fee of $5 per article will continue to be assessed by the BL to provide articles that are requested, but are part of its existing hard-copy or electronic collection. The Biomedical Library Advisory Committee recommended this change in policy.

Keeping You Updated in CME
News USA Biomedical Librarian Trey Lemley has been awarded the EBSCO/MLA Annual Meeting Grant from EBSCO Subscription Services to defray his expenses to attend the Medical Library Association’s (MLA) 2009 meeting in Hawaii this May. Interlibrary Loan Supervisor and USA Biomedical Librarian Beverly Rossini was awarded the $1,000 Stars Atlas Mentoring Award from Atlas Systems. This award is made to one library practitioner who is new to the field of interlibrary loan and will enable Beverly to attend the 2009 American Library Association (ALA) Summer Conference in Chicago where she will participate in continuing education and be mentored by another medical librarian. The University of South Alabama Biomedical Library is currently hosting the National Library of Medicine’s traveling exhibit Frankenstein: Penetrating the Secrets of Nature until June 21, 2009 at the Gulf Coast Exploreum and partnering with the The University of South Alabama Physicians’ Group Med School Café lecture series. The May series featured USA researchers Drs. Glenn L. Wilson and Mary Townsley. Their lecture “How Every Patient Benefits from Medical Research” featured specific examples of medical research conducted at USA to illustrate how all patient care is improved through scientific discovery. The series will continue in June, is free and open to the public includes lunch and a tour of the Frankenstein exhibit. Call us for more infomration. As part of the National Library Week, the University of South Alabama Libraries sponsored a Kids & Teens Book Drive for USA Women's & Children's Hospital. More than 900 new and gently-used books for kids and teens were donated then delivered to Volunteer Services to be given to the children and teenagers at the hospital to entertain, enrich, and promote love of reading. Andrea Wright of the USA Biomedical Library organized and promoted this project. LibrariansJie Lie, Andrea Wright, Judy Burnham, Justin Robertson, Geneva Staggs, and Robert Britton and staff Wynde Griffith, Donna Ladnier, Fletch Bowling, Marian Lee, and Robbie Runderson from the Biomedical Library aka the Jagbrarians participated in the College of Medicine’s Chili/ Gumbo Showdown on Saturday, February 28, 2009. A special secret recipe met with rave reviews.
What our users say ...
The Biomedical Library is an extremely valuable resource to me as I prepare updates on my lecture content and collaborate on research projects and to my students as they gather recent evidence-based resources for class assignments. When I don’t know how to find some information, the Dennis W. Fell, MD, PT librarians always have great Chairman & Associate suggestions. I’m continually learning Professor Univ. of South from the very friendly staff! Alabama, Physical Therapy

For the past year we have been developing the new USA CME’s website. The emergence of the site is to ease the transition to the ACCME’s Updated Criteria. The portal should be used for all activities relative to CME sponsored AMA PRA Category 1 credit and has been designed to comply with all ACCME requirements. Currently, you can go to our website and obtain free CME credits on most any topic in medicine. Everyone is welcome. USA CME emphasizes (without pharma support): • How can the physician enhance their performance or do differently in the context and scope of their practice to provide the best patient care and improve patient outcomes? The ACCME also looks for linkages between the actions and behaviors that should be occurring in practice, and the confirmation for those actions. • How does an educational activity address those actions? • How the educational activity will be evaluated for effectiveness in helping participants reach the desired results. The application process will guide you through the requirements of the Updated Criteria and help you think through your activity in terms of these changed requirements. It is also intended to help USA CME maintain its accreditation, and gain status as an exemplary provider of CME. An additional feature is that it provides CME planners with more information than ever about what the ACCME expects of every CMEcertified activity. There are links to several wording samples for action and evidence statements, ACCME activity review pages, and journal articles about CME design and evaluation. Everything is conveniently accessible from one place, the usa-cme.com website. If you are planning to develop a CME activity, first contact the CME office to discuss your ideas and let us provide all needed documentation requirements. We will help you figure out how your activity can move beyond transmitting knowledge into one that can support change in participant’s actions as they turn knowledge into practice. The Updated application has been live for about one month, and we are listening to our users and making changes as needed. Our continued goals are to improve patient outcomes by developing CME activities that meet the Updated Criteria, display USA’s expertise and capabilities, and create innovative approaches to continuing medical education and professional development. We welcome your feedback and look forward to working with you in the new world of CME.

USA Biomedical Library Biofeedback Summer 2009
SOUTHmed Update Confusion about copyright law continues to perplex information seekers. The CONTU Suggestion of Five (CCG) guidelines state: “During a calendar year (12 consecutive months) a library may receive up to five copies of articles from a particular periodical published within five years prior to the request date. No more than six copies of articles/chapters/small portions may be made from a non-periodical (including a book) during the entire term of copyright of the work.” For copying beyond the CONTU Guidelines, the library may need to obtain copyright permission directly from the copyright holder or from a representative such as Copyright Clearance Center. It would be prudent for SOUTHMed patrons to obtain a common understanding of the basic aspects of copyright law (CCL) and its application to your information use. You should begin with a direct analysis of the four fair use factors found in the US Code Title 17 Chapter 1 § 107 to ascertain how a copy will be used for any purpose other than private study, scholarship or research. A brief paraphrase can be found below: “Notwithstanding the provisions of sections 106 and 106A, the fair use of a copyrighted work, including such use by reproduction in copies or phonorecords or by any other means specified by that section, for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching (including multiple copies for classroom use), scholarship, or research, is not an infringement of copyright. In determining whether the use made of a work in any particular case is a fair use the factors to be considered shall include— (1) the purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes; (2) the nature of the copyrighted work; (3) the amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole; and (4) the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work.” There are mechanisms in place for obtaining copyright permissions. We use them, but you may want to be aware of some of the resources made available from one of our resources - the Copyright Clearance Center. They have a short program (less than seven minutes) called Copyright Basics which you can view or download for non-commercial use in your organization (terms and conditions apply) from http://66.151.191.157/. Why don’t you take a look?
