摘要

A new application to the US National Library of Medicine for inclusion of Fluoride in MEDLINE and its rejection are reported. After reviewing the explanation offered for the continued exclusion from MEDLINE of peer-reviewed reports published in Fluoride by well-qualified researchers, the editor and managing editor of Fluoride conclude that this negative decision appears to stem more from the unyielding endorsement of water fluoridation and dental fluoride use as completely safe by the US Department of Health & Human Services than from any appropriate objective criteria.
