The Full Record page displays information contained in the ISI database about an article, with search terms highlighted. For example, if a record was located by entering MAD COW DISEASE in the Topic field on the General Search page, this phrase will be highlighted wherever it appears in the record. Information Available in Full Record Note that the ISI database does not contain the complete text of the article. Instead it contains a summary record for each article that includes some or all of the following fields, depending on the database you have selected. Article title, source title, ISSN, volume, issue, publication date, page range, publisher, publisher's address, publisher's World Wide Web address, complete list of authors, authors' addresses, reprint address, document type, language, references, abstract, author-provided keyword list, additional keyword list (KeyWords Plus®), and ISI document delivery number. Because the Web of Science supports links, the full record may contain additional buttons at the top-right of the page. If your institution subscribes to electronic journals there may be full text links. Links to other ISI products or an OPAC can also be present. See the ISI Web site for more information about ISI Links. Use the options on this page to:

The Related Records page displays a list of articles whose cited reference lists include at least one of the sources cited by the original (parent) article, whose title appears at the top of the page. Articles that share the largest number of sources with the original article are listed first. The assumption behind related record searching is that articles whose reference lists include some of the same sources have a subject relationship, regardless of whether their titles, abstracts, or keywords contain the same terms. The more sources two articles have in common, the closer this subject relationship is presumed to be. Related Records are sorted from most relevant to least relevant. You can access Related Records from either the Full Record or Cited References pages.
