Brief Description:
MEDLINE is the U.S. National Library of Medicine's
(NLM) premier bibliographic database covering the fields of medicine,
nursing, dentistry, veterinary medicine, the health care system,
and the preclinical sciences. MEDLINE contains bibliographic citations
and author abstracts from more than 4,600 biomedical journals published
in the United States and 70 other countries. The file contains over
11 million citations dating back to the mid-1960's, including approximately
130,000 population-related journal citations unique to the former
POPLINE® database, added to MEDLINE in October of 2002. Coverage
is worldwide, but most records are from English-language sources
or have English abstracts. Abstracts are included for about 52%
of the records.
