This study examines Chemical Abstracts (CA) coverage of the journal literature cited by researchers from preclinical science departments affiliated with medical schools. Using references from 70 dissertations written between 1973 and 1977 in the fields of anatomy, biochemistry, immunology, microbiology, pathology, pharmacology, and physiology, coverage of journal articles was studied. Approximately 57% of the cited literature was covered. Biochemistry (83.5%), pharmacology (80.4%), and microbiology (76.2%) were covered the best while pathology (27.8%) was covered the worst. Coverage of anatomy (55.4%), immunology (40.1%), and physiology (42.4%) was dependent upon the research being conducted. With the advent of multidata base searching, Chemical Abstracts should be considered as a source of references for preclinical science researchers.
本研究调查了医学院基础科学系研究人员所引用期刊文献的《化学文摘》（CA）收录情况。利用1973年至1977年间撰写的70篇解剖学、生物化学、免疫学、微生物学、病理学、药理学和生理学领域的博士论文中的参考文献，对期刊文章的收录情况进行了研究。约57%的被引文献被收录。生物化学（83.5%）、药理学（80.4%）和微生物学（76.2%）的收录情况最佳，而病理学（27.8%）的收录情况最差。解剖学（55.4%）、免疫学（40.1%）和生理学（42.4%）的收录情况取决于所开展的研究。随着多数据库检索的出现，《化学文摘》应被视为基础科学研究人员的参考文献来源。
