OVID users: If the default limitation on file-size download at your institution is fewer than 5000 records, ask Ovid for an increase to 5000. ACCEPTABLE OVID FIELDS AND FORMATS: To gain the advantage of ranking both the B-list and the A-list (Stage 4) by means of subject headings, choose, under "Fields", the "Complete Reference" and, under "Citation Format", choose "Reprint/Medlars". (Checking "Include Search History" is optional). (After pressing "Save", click on Unix Style Linefeeds.) Here is what a complete record in Reprint/Medlars format looks like. <8> UI - 6119830 MI - 82109093 RO - NLM AU - Melvin JB AU - Bulger RE TI - Cell division in kidneys of rats fed a potassium-deficient diet.

MH - Time Factors AB - Mitoses is stimulated in the kidneys of adult rats fed a potassium-deficient diet. A statistically significant increase in mitotic figures appears first in the collecting ducts of the inner strip of the outer medulla after two days on the K+ deficient diet (P less than 0.05). After six days, mitosis also increases in the collecting ducts in the outer stripe and in the inner medulla (P less than 0.01). After eight days there is a significant rise in mitotic activity in the cells of the proximal convoluted tubule (P less than 0.01). There is a questionable increase in mitosis found only on the fifth day in the distal convoluted tubule. In all other cell types there is no statistically significant increase in cell division over the normal low levels that are observed in the cells of the controls rats.
