National Library of Medicine (U.S.). Reference Section III. Title IV. Series 02NLM: ZW 1 N272 no.94-8 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: Karen Patrias, Editor Current Bibliographies in Medicine Reference Section National Library of Medicine Bethesda, MD 20894 Phone: 301-496-6097 Fax: 301-402-1384 Internet: patrias@nlm.nih.gov Ordering Information: Current Bibliographies in Medicine is sold by the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office, P.O. 371954, Pittsburgh, PA 15250-7954.

Use of funds for printing this periodical has been approved by the Director of the Office of Management and Budget through September 30, 1994. 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. * Hunt, Jennie P.; van de Kamp, Jacqueline, compilers.

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. Journal Article: Authors Article Title Claman HN, Robertson AD.
