With the increasing use of mobile devices in health care settings and

by health care professionals, we would like to invite you to complete

a short questionnaire on your mobile phone and mobile device usage, as

well as provide some scenarios concerning mobile device security and

privacy use.

For these reasons, we are nursing and medical students and medical residents at Indiana University and the University of Pittsburgh and ask them to complete a brief

(approximately 10 minutes) questionnaire.  There are background

questions (e.g. race, age, and gender), questions about mobile phone

usage, and questions about privacy and security for mobile devices.

There are no foreseeable risks and no direct financial benefits for

your assistance.

The questionnaire is entirely anonymous so your responses will not be

identifiable in any way.  All responses are confidential and the paper

questionnaires will be kept under lock and key.  Your participation is

voluntary, and you may quit answering questions on the questionnaire

at any time.

The study is being conducted by Elizabeth Whipple, Elizabeth LaRue,

and Kacy Allgood. Ms. Whipple can be reached at 317.278.6179, and Dr.

LaRue can be reached at 412.624.2416, if you have any questions.

Your consideration of this request is greatly appreciated.

The link to the survey can be found at http://bit.ly/8ylKNk. 

For EndNote X3 or later, the year data is imported correctly.

For questions contact IUSM librarian Carole Gall, 317.274.1411 or cfgall@iupui.edu or EndNote specialist Doug Bartlow, 317.274.5077 jbartlo@iupui.edu .

Automatic export of PubMed references can be done using Internet Explorer (IE) or Mozilla Firefox browsers. Both browsers are available for Windows/Vista and Macintosh platforms. IE is the default Internet browser for Microsoft (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/Internet-explorer/default.aspx). Mozilla Firefox, reputed more secure than IE, is widely used on both Windows/Vista and Macintosh platforms. Since Firefox versions 3.0 and above are already configured for automatic export. Note that these instructions apply to EndNote X2/X3 only.

The key to this automatic export process is in the browser setup. IE 7/8 require an adjustment to their default settings. The necessary adjustment is unavailable in older versions of IE.  

To configure IE for PubMed auto export to EndNote. To configure IE version 7:

·         Open IE 7

·         Click Tools

·         Click Internet Options

·         Select the Program Tab

·         On the lower right side click Set Program

·         Select “Associate a file type or protocol with a program” See Figure 1

·         Select .txt

·         Click Change Program

·         Select EndNote

·         Click OK, and EndNote should open.

·         Select the EndNote Library wanted

·         Highlight PubMed as the Import Filter, and click Choose

For those using IE 8, the settings are somewhat different.

·         Locate any text file (.txt) file on the computer, or create a brief test file (.txt)

·         Right click on txt file icon

·         Select Open With

·         Go to Choose Program

·         Highlight EndNote

·         Check box (Always use selected program to open file)

·         Click on Okay

·         Now any text file will be opened by EndNote

Note: if Notepad is needed, reverse the steps to make Notepad the default to open text files. If Notepad is used regularly for other applications, this option is not recommended.

If the user has administrative rights to the computer, there is another method of using IE8 in XP:

·         Go to Start

·         Choose Control Panel                                                                   

·         Choose Folder Options

·         Select File Types tab                                                                                                      

·         Under Registered File Types scroll down and choose txt

·         Choose Advanced at the bottom of the page

·         In Edit File Type menu choose Open and then Edit

·         Under Application Used to Perform Action, browse to Programs Folder on hard drive

·         Find the EndNote folder and choose EndNote.exe

·         (It will look something like this… “C:\Program Files\EndNote X2\EndNote.exe” )

·         Click Okay

In PubMed do the following:

·         Select references

·         Click Send To

·         Choose Destination File

·         Change the Format to MEDLINE

·         Click Create File

·         Choose Open

·         When EndNote opens, choose the PubMed filter

If the user has administrative rights to the computer, there is another method of using IE8 in Vista:

·         Go to Start

·         Choose Default Programs

·         Choose “Associate a file type or protocol with a program”

·         Highlight txt in the menu window

·         Click Change Program

·         Choose EndNote

·         Click Okay

Upon evaluation, these questions were not sufficiently of a high yield nature, nor were they clinically oriented in many cases. This revision makes both of these question banks more pertinent to your studies. Our USMLE Step 1 Board Review question bank now includes over 3200 high quality questions. Our Step 1 Medical Subjects Question bank will now contain a more focused 6,000+ questions organized into the most relevant basic science medical subjects.

The 2000+ questions that were removed from the USMLE Step 1 question banks are available in our Medical Subject Review set of question banks, comprising over 11,400 questions. You will still find these questions useful for general studies or as a basic sciences refresher. Both the USMLE Step 1 and the Medical Subject Review resources are available on your institution’s Exam Master OnLine gateway.
