Overview
Knowledge MedRef is a bibliographic reference database
for important medical journal literature. Many of the titles
in the database are indexed only in Knowledge MedRef,
making the database a uniquely valuable resource for health
care researchers, clinicians and consumers.
Database
Contents
The Knowledge MedRef database is continually growing,
as we add new titles and additional materials for titles already
in the database. Database entries include bibliographic and
abstract content, providing you with valuable information
about the journal article.
At the present time, the premier edition
of the database is being published with eleven titles from
Williams & Wilkins (Baltimore, Maryland). Aries Systems is
presently undertaking discussions with many other publishers,
in anticipation of their participation in this exciting and
valuable project. Titles presently represented in the database
are:
- ACSM's Health & Fitness Journal
- Cardiology in Review
- Clinical Pulmonary Medicine
- Emergency Radiology
- Infectious Diseases in Clinical
Practice
- JCR:Journal of Clinical Rheumatology
- Journal of Practical Psychiatry
and Behavioral Health

Your citation data are then stored in a central
Knowledge MedRef editorial database, under password protected
access that you control. At any time, you can recall, edit, update
and modify entries in the editorial database. You decide when the
entry should be released for publication in the on-line Knowledge
MedRef database (you can still make modifications, even after
release).
Article
Reference Publication
Soon after you release your article data for publication, it'll
be available in the on-line Knowledge MedRef database. There,
it'll be accessible by researchers, clinicians, educators and other
healthcare professionals around the world.
On-line users access the database either
with our simple Knowledge Web browser interface, or with
our Expert Knowledge Finder client software. Our advanced
fuzzy logic search engine accepts natural language queries, and
produces search results ranked in order of likely relevance to the
query. Users find that our interfaces and search engine save them
time, and provide better search results than other services.
The Knowledge MedRef database will
explicitly identify you as the publisher of your article data, along
with entries from other important publishers. The collection of
valuable and unique content from many publishers will make Knowledge
MedRef appealing to a wide range of healthcare professionals.
Your publications will then become accessible not only to the target
audience for your journal, but also to all healthcare specialists.
Publishers, whose submitted data include
article abstracts or summaries, may receive a portion of database
access charge revenues resulting from publication of the Knowledge
MedRef database.
