PMJ publishes important papers covering the whole field of clinical medicine, emphasizing common clinical disorders. PMJ Online contains the full content of each issue of the journal, including all figures and tables. In addition, the full text is searchable by keyword, and the cited references include hyperlinks to Medline and to the online full text of many other frequently cited journals. Online fulltext content begins with the January 1999 issue, and will expand with each month's new issue. Abstracts are online beginning with 1976 issues, and online tables of contents begin with 1965 issues.
All online content is searchable.
The November 1999 issue is the most recent issue online. The December 1999 issue is scheduled to be online on 19 November 1999. In addition, the site includes a 'Coming soon from PMJ' page that lists titles and authors of full papers in production for future issues. Online readers may want to sign up for the 'eTOCs' service, which will deliver each issue's new table of contents via email. In addition, a personalised alerting service, similar to the eBMJ's 'Customised Alerts' will soon be available to keep readers informed of specific articles in their areas of specialisation.
