Get Articles (How To): January 1999 >Could you recommend the best ways to get the articles cited in >the Index to the CSR (CSRINDX) that is posted every month?

I frequently get inquiries like this one, from new listmembers unfamiliar with the postings, because I don't like to clutter the list any further with the same long explanation every month. So, let's try this short one: The cited articles are from professional journals usually kept on file in medical libraries. The journal names are abbreviated, so that each citation will fit on one line, but the librarian should be able to decipher. University libraries generally are open, short of borrowing privilege, to the public. If you need only an abstract, many are available from the U.S. government PubMed website at http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov. To decide quickly whether to go that far, you can look up my very brief review in the Current Science Reviews for the month indicated (back to 1995), which are in the archives of this forum as well as in my own files.
