SERIES  NOTE

Current Bibliographies in Medicine (CBM) is a continuation in
part of the National Library of Medicine's Literature Search
Series, which ceased in 1987 with No. 87-15.  In 1989 it also
subsumed the  Specialized Bibliography Series.  Each bibliography
in the new series covers a distinct subject area of biomedicine
and is intended to fulfill a current awareness function. 
Citations are usually derived from searching a variety of online
databases.  NLM databases utilized include MEDLINE, AVLINE,
BIOETHICSLINE, CANCERLIT, CATLINE, HEALTH, POPLINE and TOXLINE. 
The only criterion for the inclusion of a particular published
work is its relevance to the topic being presented; the format,
ownership, or location of the material is not considered.

Comments and suggestions on this series may be addressed to:

SILICONE  IMPLANTS


For some years controversy has existed over silicone implants
used for breast augmentation or replacement after mastectomy. 
Adverse effects from their use have been widely reported in the
popular press, with conflicting information often appearing in
the medical literature.  This controversy and the attendant
publicity lead the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) first to
ban any use of these implants and then to permit limited use,
mainly as replacement after mastectomy.

Silicone is used not only in breast implants but also in implants
located literally throughout every part of the body.  It has been
used: to construct heart valves and other cardiovascular
prostheses; to fashion catheters which are used for purposes
ranging from drug delivery to cardiac monitoring; in dentistry;
in the gastrointestinal tract; as a facilitator for nerve
regeneration; in ophthalmology; in the ear, nose, throat, and
respiratory tract; as a prosthesis or ingredient in prostheses
for many parts of the skeletal system; as a tissue expander; as a
cosmetic agent for treatment of scars and wrinkles; in the
urogenital tract, including penile prostheses; and in many other
applications.

This bibliography updates and includes all the citations from an
earlier bibliography of the same name* published in 1992.  It
contains selected references to English and foreign language
publications on silicone implants, including articles on
technique as well as articles on adverse effects, and is limited
to human studies.  Journal articles, conference papers,
editorials, letters to the editor, books, and audiovisuals are
included.  Arrangement of the bibliography is in two parts.  Part
I is a reprint of the 1992 publication and contains citations
from January 1989 through July 1992; Part II covers August 1992
through August 1994.  Within each part the arrangement is
primarily by body system affected, with an introductory section
on silicone in general.  Citations are listed in only one
section; those that cover more than one area are in the general
or miscellaneous categories.

SEARCH  STRATEGY


A variety of online databases are usually searched in preparing
bibliographies in the CBM series.  To assist you in updating or
otherwise manipulating the material in this search, the strategy
used for the NLM's MEDLINE database is given below.  Please note
that the search strategies presented here differ from individual
demand searches in that they are generally broadly formulated and
irrelevant citations edited out prior to printing.




SS 1 = EXP BREAST DISEASES OR ALL BREAST: OR 
       MAMMAPLASTY

SS 2 = SILICONE ELASTOMERS OR SILICON OR SILICONES OR 
       SILOXANES

SS 3 = EXP IMPLANTS, ARTIFICIAL OR EXP PROSTHESES

SS 4 = 2 AND 1 OR 3 AND 1

SS 5 = 2 AND 3

SS 6 = BIOCOMPATIBLE MATERIALS

SS 7 = 6 AND 1 OR 6 AND 2 OR 6 AND 3

SS 8 = 4 OR 5 OR 7

SS 9 = 8 AND HUMAN




GRATEFUL MED

To make online searching easier and more efficient, the Library
offers GRATEFUL MED, microcomputer-based software that provides a
user-friendly interface to most NLM databases.  This software was
specifically developed for health professionals and features
multiple choice menus and "fill in the blank" screens for easy
search preparation.  GRATEFUL MED runs on an IBM PC (or
IBM-compatible) with DOS 2.0 or a Macintosh, and requires a Hayes
(or Hayes-compatible) modem.  It may be purchased from the
National Technical Information Service in Springfield, Virginia,
for $29.95 (plus $3.00 per order for shipping).  For your
convenience, an order blank has been enclosed at the back of this
bibliography.




SAMPLE  CITATIONS


Citations in this bibliographic series are formatted according to
the rules established for  Index Medicus*.  Sample journal and
monograph citations appear below.  For journal articles written
in a foreign language, the English translation of the title is
placed in brackets; for monographs, the title is given in the
original language.  In both cases the language of publication is
shown by a three letter abbreviation appearing at the end of the citation.  
Note also that a colon (:) may appear within an
author's name or article title.  The NLM computer system
automatically inserts this symbol in the place of a diacritical
mark.
