Adjust oxygen and fluid therapy thresholds for pregnant patients with severe disease, experts advise; early use of a high-flow nasal cannula and prone positioning may help avoid mechanical ventilation.

Many doctors are considering retiring, but fear they'll miss the patient interaction, mental stimulation, and income. There are ways to have it all.

A deluge of new data does not suggest harm with ACE inhibitors and angiotensin blockers in COVID-19 rates or outcomes but suggests possible differential effects of the two drug classes.

One problem with memory tests is that cut-off scores for mild cognitive impairment don’t reflect that women tend to have stronger verbal memory than men.

The new coronavirus is disproportionately striking minority populations—particularly urban blacks and Navajo Indians living on their reservation. Experts say social and economic factors that predate the COVID-19 crisis may help explain why.

After a week seeing cancer patients with COVID-19 as the inpatient consult attending, Don Dizon finds himself more emotionally exhausted than he's ever been before.

Calls to relax social distancing policies emphasize the need for increased testing, but a closer look at current SARS-CoV-2 tests leaves Anish Koka, MD, doubtful that more tests will be the solution.

In the 100 days since the U.S. reported its first coronavirus case, we've had more than 1.2 million cases and 73,000 deaths. But are things getting any better?

If it feels like all your internal clocks are melting as your stay-at-home days drone on, you are not alone. Researchers say that people in various levels of COVID-19 quarantine around the world are reporting a distorted sense of time.

Before the COVID-19 pandemic upended people's lives, Americans were already feeling more stressed than they did a generation ago. Now, new research finds that no group is feeling the impact of additional stress more than middle-aged people.

Based on a review of more than 1,000 patients who've already sought care for respiratory illnesses since the coronavirus was declared a pandemic in March, researchers at Harvard Medical School are offering up a new list of symptoms to watch out for.

Researchers conducted nearly 1,500 online interviews and found that nearly 82% of those surveyed said they didn't plan to conceive during the coronavirus pandemic.

Dr Harpreet Bajaj summarizes the known and unknown links between diabetes and COVID-19, focusing on three clinical questions.

Learning more about this evolutionary advantage in pangolins may suggest possible treatments for coronavirus in humans, the team said.

Dr Aaron Holley warns against following 'false prophets' as we confront treatment decisions for patients with COVID-19.

Just as an imperfect ruler can measure accurately if its error is constant and known, serology need not have perfect sensitivity and specificity to estimate COVID's prevalence, write Drs Jha and Murthy.

Two new reports suggest that the warm summer months will not significantly slow the novel coronavirus as it spreads around the globe.

PMC released a new and improved journal list on March 31, 2009, after a comprehensive redesign for greater clarity and organization.

The new design not only combines the full-list and tabbed-list views of the previous version but also includes some new or updated features to provide users with a greater overview of the total PMC archive. Looking at this new list, you will find:

1. An Expanded View of PMC journals that includes NIH Portfolio
2. Special Collections
3. A New “Participation Level” Journal Category
4. Hide/Show Display Option for Predecessor Titles
5. Article and Journal Search Feature

For more information, see the complete article in the May-June issue of the NLM Technical Bulletin: https://www.nlm.nih.gov/pubs/techbull/mj09/mj09_pmc_redesign.html

You can now find embargoed articles and their corresponding PMCIDs through a recently released search option in the PMC Entrez database. Using the “Limits” tab, click in the field, “Show both free and embargoed articles” and refine your search by journal, author, date, article type, and/or tag term, as needed. Once you’re on the summary page, click on the “embargoed” tab at the top to find the articles in this category. You can then find the PMCID and date of availability at the bottom of the article citation, as indicated in the example below. Note: The PMC search option only includes articles with an initial embargo of up to 12 months. Articles with an embargo greater than 12 months are not compliant with the NIH Public Access Policy and will appear in search results only when the full text is free in PMC. For more information, see the article in the September-October issue of the NLM Technical Bulletin.

A new page, Public Access & PMC, has now been added to the About PMC section of the PubMed Central site. “Public Access & PMC” provides information on the relationship between PMC and the NIH Public Access policy, including the difference between the NIH Public Access journal list and PMC journal list. In particular, authors and publishers should find this new site to be a useful resource.

For any journal issue that has at least one open access or early access article, PMC is now displaying the table of contents (TOC) in advance of the whole issue becoming available. Not to worry, though—only those articles specified for early release are immediately viewable in PMC. As consistent with the terms of access in the journal agreement, the other articles will only become available on their specified release date, as shown in the TOC below.

The journal's accessiblity, as indicated on the PMC Journal list also has not changed; for example, Plant Physiology's embargo period is still 12 months. What has changed is that the issues with “preview” TOCs now additionally appear on the journal's archive page. Publishers and others can rest assured, however, that no access terms for any journal have been changed with the unveiling of this new format.

PMC recently redesigned its URL format to allow for easier usability as well as consistency across the NCBI site. To implement this change, we moved the previous site, www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov, into the NCBI domain as a sub-site. You can now access the PMC home page at https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc.

The primary advantage of the new format is to enable the PMC site to become more fully integrated with other NCBI resources. The new URLs are also more user-friendly—they no longer include technology-driven terminology, such as CGI script names and file extensions (Figure 1).

Figure 1—Old URL for Journal Page with CGI Script Name

Instead, note that after the NCBI/PMC address, the URL first identifies the type of resource, e.g., the PMC journal list, with subsequent identification for a particular subset of that resource—in this case, the journal number (Figure 2).

Figure 2—New URL for Journal Page with Journal Number

Additionally, you will have greater flexibility in accessing particular types of material because, in a number of cases, more than one URL can be used for the same resource. In these instances, one URL is considered to be canonical, or primary; however, using any of the ancillary URLs for that resource will redirect you back to the canonical one. For example (see Figure 3), although the first URL, which represents the PMCID, is considered to be the canonical URL, you may also access the article by using other identifiers, such as the pmid, doi, or the issn-volume-issue-page (ivip).

Figure 3—Canonical and Ancillary URLs for the Same Full-Text Article

Finally, with the roll-out of these more stable and standardized URLs, as in the table below (Figure 4), you will also find it easier to modify the web addresses in your browser. Note that the canonical URL is given first and is in bold; the ancillary URLs are listed below it.

Figure 4—Table Display of all New URLs

Although the new URLs are firmly in place, please also note that we haven't completely discarded the old to bring in the new. If you do use an old URL, it's not a problem. Your browser will be redirected to the new location.

Four new members have been appointed to serve on the PMC National Advisory Committee: Mike Rossner of Rockefeller University Press, Jan Fassler of the University of Iowa, Ivy Anderson of the California Digital Library, and Delores Meglio from the Knovel Corporation. Each member will serve a 4-year term. The next meeting of the committee is scheduled for June 4, 2010. For more information on the committee, see PMC National Advisory Committee.
