The AskMEDLINE is irksome. You select a publication, return to your search and you begin again at the first item.

1. In the browse articles it would be nice to be able to save the journals I want for easy repeated access. 2. There should be an option to display the abstract instead of TBL. Otherwise, great app!

This is a major upgrade to the previous version. It does not point you to a web link. Instead, you can now put in your clinical or biomedical literature queries inside each of the app's subsections. When you see the TBL, it then provides you links to the journal's abstract and full-text. I also like the inclusion of the Clinical Queries and Journal Browser functions. Kudos!

Invaluable for those who are employed in the medical/surgical field.
