Clinical and Experimental Medicine

There is a filing issue online for the journal : Clinical and Experimental Medicine.
http://www.springerlink.com/content/108234/


When you go to the home page of the title, where you will get the most recent issue,
you find in this instance, the volumes and issues for 1945.
The e-journal platform has misfiled and corrupted the current issues,
sending them to the beginning of the title.
When you are at the home page --
look for the pulldown menu opposite the phrase "93 volumes"

In this pull down menu,
look for 13-4 and 3-1 to find the most recent volumes.
The ones that have not corrupted have green squares,
and the corrupted ones have dropped off the platform!!


When in 2001, this title became Clinical and Experimental Medicine,
the publisher began numbering again with volume 1
instead of continuing the volume numbering of REM - Research in Experimental Medicine
- (dating back to 1908)--
also known as : Zeitschrift für die gesamte experimentelle Medizin einschliesslich experimenteller Chirurgie
The computer has misfiled volume 1 of CEM with volume 1 of Research in Experimental Medicine
( Zeitschrift für die gesamte experimentelle Medizin einschliesslich experimenteller Chirurgie ) (dating back to 1908)
This is a direct result of the e-journal platform ignoring several title changes
and mergers and lumping all this content together under the most recent title….

I have sent a note to the e-journal platform and
I do hope that they will resolve this corruption shortly.
