New Structured Abstracts in MEDLINE® Web Resource Page Available

[Editor's note added September 21, 2011. For more information, see Structured Abstracts in MEDLINE Web Resource Page Updated .]

A new Structured Abstracts resource page is available from the National Library of Medicine® (NLM®) Web site. In August 2010, structured abstracts in PubMed® were reformatted for easier readability. The 2011 NLMMedlineCitationSet DTD and MEDLINE/PubMed XML accommodate structured abstracts in a more granular segmentation as a part of NLM data dissemination so that licensees can also manipulate the display and searching of structured abstracts. This new resource provides NLM guidelines, mapping files for structured abstract labels, and other background information to assist licensees or researchers.
