STM publisher Elsevier, Netherlands, has introduced eClips Consult, a website and e-mail digest service designed to simplify the process of professional medical journal research and information access. The site and e-mail service address physicians' need to quickly identify and assimilate information from 350 major medical journals and journal abstract databases.
eClips Consult's numerous editorial boards feature more than 280 experts in 28 medical specialties or sub-specialties. Surveying the most popular medical journals from across the globe, these boards select journal articles with the highest relevance and value for practicing physicians. Preference is given to articles of high clinical importance supported by strong medical evidence and free from previously published information. Additionally, eClips Consult's e-mail digest service sends articles to physician subscribers as soon as they are published.
Other features of eClips Consult include article abstracts plus expert commentary on an article's relevance to or impact on a medical specialty; daily e-mails containing articles based on subscribers' search criteria including keywords, journal titles or topics of interest; easy, one-click access to full text articles; and peer discussion, allowing physicians to comment on an article's relevance or importance to medical practice or specialty needs. Each article is rated from 'Top Article' to 'Suggested Reading'. This star-based article rating system helps physicians narrow article searches.
