Subscribers to DSM Premium and DSM Premium Plus at PsychiatryOnline.com get access to a free PDF version of a featured book EVERY MONTH from the APPI Bookstore.
January brings Brain Stimulation Therapies for Clinicians by Edmund S. Higgins, M.D., and Mark S. George, M.D.
Brain stimulation—focally applying electricity to the brain—is a field with a rapidly expanding and promising array of techniques, which already have proven efficacy in treating conditions ranging from Parkinson's disease to chronic and acute pain to depression. Comprehensively surveying the landscape of current practice, Brain Stimulation Therapies for Clinicians provides a clear and straightforward analysis of the many therapeutic applications, along with the technologies and techniques involved in each.
The book begins with a thoughtful, and occasionally macabre, history of electrical stimulation of the brain. The authors then provide an accessible and concise overview of electricity and its effects on the brain. The essence of the book, though, is its thorough exploration of the clinical applications of electrical stimulation. Brain Stimulation Therapies for Clinicians covers the wide range of existing electrical stimulation therapies, including electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), vagus nerve stimulation (VNS), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), deep brain stimulation (DBS), and a host of other clinical applications. Each chapter examines a particular therapy, including its history, an overview of the techniques involved, its clinical indications, side effects, and a critical review of the literature surrounding its efficacy. Designed as an approachable and thorough reference for the practicing clinician, the book includes many features to assist in evaluating the variety of stimulation therapies.
* The book as a whole is an excellent quick-start guide to help practitioners make informed choices about brain stimulation therapies. The background on the basics of electricity is useful for those not intimately familiar with these concepts.
* A thorough glossary helps the clinician navigate the jargon and decode the alphabet soup surrounding current practice.
* Clear and useful diagrams and schematics illustrate all essential points
* Interesting sidebars highlight fascinating and occasionally amusing potential applications of brain stimulation techniques—and offer a glimpse into the sometimes grim history of human brain experimentation.
* The authors' careful attention to evidence-based literature helps clinicians determine which techniques have proven efficacy and which claims are unsupported.
* Each chapter features a comprehensive bibliography of references for further reading.
Brain Stimulation Therapies for Clinicians is an essential reference for any clinician, or even potential patient, interested in understanding electrical stimulation as therapy.
You can access the Book of the Month from the home page, at PsychiatryOnline.com. You'll have access to Stimulation Therapies for Clinicians as a PDF download for the month of January.

PubMed® Redesign
[Editor's note: Preview information is available in the article, Preview of PubMed Redesign Coming. Please also see LinkOut in the PubMed Redesign.]
graphical image of the letter N
N LM® is pleased to announce a redesign of the PubMed interface. While retaining the robust functionality, the interface was simplified to make it easier to use while promoting scientific discovery.
The changes to PubMed are outlined below. Please note that search processing, including Automatic Term Mapping, has not changed.
PubMed Homepage
The PubMed homepage has been streamlined, requiring less effort to find resources. The new homepage includes an NCBI Header, Search Bar, and Footer that are common to all PubMed pages (see Figure 1).
The NCBI Header includes an NCBI Resources pull-down menu categorized by topic, a How To menu, and the Sign In for My NCBI.
The Search Bar retains the database selection menu, and includes a link to Advanced search and Help. Additional Search bar selections, RSS and Save search, display after running a PubMed search.
The Go button is now the Search button.
Access to the popular tools and resources previously found on the PubMed homepage sidebar may be found under PubMed Tools (e.g., the Single Citation Matcher and Clinical Queries) and More Resources (e.g., New and Noteworthy and the PubMed Tutorials).
The Footer includes links to many NCBI resources.

WiserWiki is now offline.
WiserWiki is no longer operational. It was undertaken by Elsevier as one of many early-stage experimentations with new editorial publishing models, specifically with a goal of understanding aspects of what is involved to maintain pre-existing book content that was going out of press via a voluntary community. As such WiserWiki has served its purpose but has been decommissioned. We sincerely appreciate the contributions of those who contributed to our project.
For further inquiries, please contact:
Tom Reller, Director, Corporate Relations
WiserWiki used the Textbook of primary care medicine / editor-in-chief, John Noble.
as its base.
WiserWiki is in BETA..........a wiki that allows board-certified physicians to collaboratively contribute and update medical information online..........
No longer in print, the textbook seeding WiserWiki contains in-depth information on a full-range of medical problems, conditions and diseases encountered in the practices of family physicians, general internists, medical and surgical subspecialists, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants

Opera Unite reinvents the Web Cloud computing and Web-based applications will never be the same
Opera Unite reinvents the Web
Cloud computing and Web-based applications will never be the same
June 16, 2009 — Oslo, Norway
http://www.opera.com/press/releases/2009/06/16/
Opera today unveiled Opera Unite, a new technology that shakes up the old client-server computing model of the Web. Opera Unite turns any computer into both a client and a server, allowing it to interact with and serve content to other computers directly across the Web, without the need for third-party servers.
Opera Unite makes serving data as simple and easy as browsing the Web. For consumers, Opera Unite services give greater control of private data and make it easy to share data with any device equipped with a modern Web browser.
For Web developers, Opera Unite services are based on the same open Web standards as Web sites today. This dramatically simplifies the complexity of authoring cutting-edge Web services. With Opera Unite, creating a full Web service is now as easy as coding a Web page.
Opera Unite is available in a special version of the Opera 10 desktop browser from Opera Labs. Opera Unite services run directly in the browser.
It is easy to use Opera Unite
1. Download the Opera Unite build from http://labs.opera.com/.
2. To start Opera Unite, click the Opera Unite logo in the lower left-hand corner of the browser and log in with your existing Opera ID — the same Opera ID used for other Opera services such as My Opera and Opera Link. Opera Unite will prompt you to register an Opera ID if you do not have one.
3. Now you are ready to use Opera Unite. Simply access your Opera Unite services from the Opera Unite panel of the browser. New services can be installed from http://unite.opera.com/.
4. Running a service will give you a direct Web address to the Opera Unite service on your device, for example: http://notebook.jondoe.operaunite.com/photo_sharing/, where “notebook” is the name of the local device serving content, “jondoe” is your username, and “photo_sharing” is the Web service being accessed. That link will also allow others to access the same Web service from your computer through their Web browser.
5. You may also see which friends are using Opera Unite services on your My Opera Unite home page.
Current Opera Unite services are as follows:
*
File Sharing
Securely share a file from your personal computer without waiting to upload it. First select the folder from which you would like to share files. Opera Unite then generates a direct URL to that folder. By giving that link to your friends, you can share files without routing through a third-party Web service.
*
Web Server

These six services represent the beginning of what is possible. Web developers can unleash their creativity to design unique Web services and, in doing so, unlock the full potential of Opera Unite.
What our CEO says
“Today, we are opening the full potential of the Web for everyone,” said Jon von Tetzchner, CEO, Opera. “Technology moves in distinct cycles. PCs decentralized computing away from large mainframes. Opera Unite now decentralizes and democratizes the cloud. With server capability in the browser, Web developers can create Web applications with profound ease. Consumers have the flexibility to choose private and efficient ways of sharing information. We believe Opera Unite is one of our most significant innovations yet, because it changes forever the fundamental fabric of the Web.”
One Web developer to another
“What interests me about Opera Unite is how current technology and the social world are now interconnected,” said Molly E. Holzschlag, Web evangelist, Opera. “Using open standards including HTML, CSS and JavaScript, developers and even enthusiasts with a little standards savvy can make their own Opera Unite service. Opera Unite allows people the ability to be imaginative with their skills and create a wide range of technical and social applications using the same open standards used today.”

Cloud computing and Web-based applications will never be the same
June 16, 2009 — Oslo, Norway
http://www.opera.com/press/releases/2009/06/16/
Opera today unveiled Opera Unite, a new technology that shakes up the old client-server computing model of the Web. Opera Unite turns any computer into both a client and a server, allowing it to interact with and serve content to other computers directly across the Web, without the need for third-party servers.
Opera Unite makes serving data as simple and easy as browsing the Web. For consumers, Opera Unite services give greater control of private data and make it easy to share data with any device equipped with a modern Web browser.
For Web developers, Opera Unite services are based on the same open Web standards as Web sites today. This dramatically simplifies the complexity of authoring cutting-edge Web services. With Opera Unite, creating a full Web service is now as easy as coding a Web page.
Opera Unite is available in a special version of the Opera 10 desktop browser from Opera Labs. Opera Unite services run directly in the browser.
It is easy to use Opera Unite
1. Download the Opera Unite build from http://labs.opera.com/.
2. To start Opera Unite, click the Opera Unite logo in the lower left-hand corner of the browser and log in with your existing Opera ID — the same Opera ID used for other Opera services such as My Opera and Opera Link. Opera Unite will prompt you to register an Opera ID if you do not have one.
3. Now you are ready to use Opera Unite. Simply access your Opera Unite services from the Opera Unite panel of the browser. New services can be installed from http://unite.opera.com/.
4. Running a service will give you a direct Web address to the Opera Unite service on your device, for example: http://notebook.jondoe.operaunite.com/photo_sharing/, where “notebook” is the name of the local device serving content, “jondoe” is your username, and “photo_sharing” is the Web service being accessed. That link will also allow others to access the same Web service from your computer through their Web browser.
5. You may also see which friends are using Opera Unite services on your My Opera Unite home page.
Current Opera Unite services are as follows:
*
File Sharing
Securely share a file from your personal computer without waiting to upload it. First select the folder from which you would like to share files. Opera Unite then generates a direct URL to that folder. By giving that link to your friends, you can share files without routing through a third-party Web service.
*
Web Server
Run entire Web sites from your local computer with the Opera Unite Web Server. After selecting the folder containing your Web site, you can share and host it from the given Opera Unite URL. Opera Unite will automatically recognize index files and create the Web site as you designed it.
*
Media Player
Rock out wherever you are by accessing your MP3s and playlists from any machine. After selecting the folder containing your playlist, use the Opera Unite direct link to play your tracks directly in any modern Web browser.
*
Photo Sharing
Share your photos direct from your PC, without uploading them online. Once you select your photo folder, the photo-sharing service will create a thumbnail image gallery of your photos. Clicking the thumbnail will present the photo in its original resolution.

Open medicine tries 'wiki-publishing'
-----Original Message-----
From: Canadian Medical Libraries List [mailto:CANMEDLIB@CLIFFY.UCS.MUN.CA] On Behalf Of Dean Giustini

Subject: [CANMEDLIB] Open medicine tries 'wiki-publishing'
Hi all,
I wanted to draw your attention to an exciting new project started today by Open Medicine, the open-access, peer-reviewed creative commons medical journal. The editors want to push the boundaries of medical publishing in a new direction and this project aims to explore the use of a wiki to improve and update articles such as narrative and peer-reviewed reviews (including systematic reviews - meta-articles that collate many other articles' data and information).
At the heart of this project is a peer-reviewed published article on the effectiveness of asynchronous telehealth, a form of health care that uses common digital devices to transmit data from clinician to clinician in order to serve remote and underserved communities.
In addition to the usual posted formats of PDF
( http://www.openmedicine.ca/article/view/262/239 )
and HTML
( http://www.openmedicine.ca/article/view/262/238 ),
the article has been posted to a wiki ( http://wikisr.openmedicine.ca ),
where readers are invited to edit the article by adding, deleting or modifying its contents. For example, relevant new studies could be added to this "living" article and the results reinterpreted as they become available.
As an open access journal, the editorial team at Open Medicine is committed to pushing the boundaries of making medical information available to anyone who needs it.

ticTOCs makes it easy to keep up with STM journal content
ticTOCs makes it easy to keep up with STM journal content
www.tictocs.ac.uk
What service allows you to select from thousands of STM journal titles and tick the ones you’re interested in, so you can receive from one source freely available tables of contents from your favorite journals? The answer is ticTOCs — Journal Tables of Contents Service, which provides TOCs from about half the currently published STM journals.
By providing access to the most recent TOCs of over 11,000 scholarly journals from more than 400 publishers, including Elsevier, ticTOCs helps users stay current with the most recent issues of journals covering a wide range of subjects.
Using ticTOCs, you can:
* Find journals of interest by title, subject or publisher,
* View the latest TOCs,
* Link through (where institutional or personal subscriptions, or open access, allow) to the fulltext of over 250,000 articles, and
* Save selected journals to MyTOCs so you can view future TOCs.
The ticTOCs service aggregates TOC RSS (Really Simple Syndication) feeds produced by journal publishers. The content of the TOCs displayed within ticTOCs depends on the information contained in the publishers’ RSS feeds. RSS feeds exported via ticTOCs are the publishers’ own feeds. Using ticTOCs, you can export selected TOC RSS feeds to popular readers such as Google Reader and Bloglines, and import article citations into RefWorks (where institutional or personal subscriptions allow).
ticTOCs' links to articles are to the fulltext or landing pages on publishers’ websites. Besides Elsevier journals, ticTOCs' content covers journals from Cambridge University Press, Emerald, IEEE, John Wiley and Sons, Inderscience Publishers, Informa (Taylor and Francis), Institute of Physics, Nature Publishing Group, Oxford University Press, Sage Publications, Springer-Verlag, Wolters Kluwer and over 400 other publishers.
The JISC Users & Innovations Programme has funded ticTOCs. The service has been developed by an international consortium, headed by the University of Liverpool Library and also including CrossRef, Cranfield University, DOAJ (Directory of Open Access Journals), Emerald, Heriot-Watt University, Inderscience Publishers, Institute of Physics, Intute, MIMAS, Open J-Gate, ProQuest, RefWorks and SAGE Publishers. end of article
