Hey, I know there are a few posters around ADD who have access to some full texts of studies, and I thought it might be useful to have a thread in which people who are dying to have a peek at the full text of a certain study can post it and hopefully get access from a fellow poster :D (Mods let me know if there is some sort of legal issue with this.)

I myself have access to some full texts, so I might be able to help a few people out.

Currently I'd love to get a look at these two:
"Young Adult Outcome of Hyperactive Children Who Received Long-term Stimulant Treatment"
http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S000271380960501X
"Protection against methamphetamine-induced neurotoxicity to neostriatal dopaminergic neurons by adenosine receptor activation."
http://jpet.aspetjournals.org/content/271/3/1320.short
 
I have the full text pdfs for both of these but no idea how to post them. Copy paste would be stupidly long, and I'm still a greenlighter so I can't PM you either. Any suggestions?
 
I can't say I approve of posting copyrighted material, but so long as the links don't get posted publicly I won't do anything.
Its an interesting moral line copyrighting scientific findings, but I feel it is needed right now to fund future research. Ya feel me brah?

I agree that it is necessary. However I doubt that I nor anyone else on this board would pay 50+ bucks for a study anyway :P

Also I wonder whether the financial incentive of publishing a study (the studies being paid for mostly by institutions at the request of their researchers, I presume) sometimes promotes research into what is currently in vogue, i.e. whatever novel copyrightable drug, at the expense of research into that which is likely beneficial but not currently the focus of most scientific inquiry, things like ibogaine.

Yeah, a file sharing site would be great. Thanks.
If you manage to remember, take down the link afterward, otherwise I'm sure EA can do it for you.
 
I'd be happy to post zshare links if I have a go ahead from the mods, but if EA says they can't be posted publicly then it doesn't sound like I do.

As far as free access to journal articles hurting science, I think that point is debatable. It cetaintly hurt the journals that publish scientific findings, but I think in this day and age peer review can survive just fine whether or not there are large journals to facilitate it.

That being said, I'll post the links as soon as I get a go ahead from a mod.
 
Well I'll just say that I'll delete the post 24 hours after you make it, hopefully it works out for everyone.
I won't infract or anything, I'll just delete the post.
 
Thanks for the clarification epsilon. Here's the links:

This is the first time I've used zshare so please let me know if these aren't working, and hopefully you see this in time troll :)

Zshare is down so lets try this:

Er the pdfs aren't downloading properly, it gives me a 1 kb pdf file (so probably the file without any content) which won't open. I bookmarked the zshare links though in case its the site. Mind trying another file sharing site? I appreciate your help, by the way :D

Got it, thanks! :)
The hyperactive kids study in particular is extremely interesting. None of the emotional impairments seen in rats treated with ritalin in childhood seem to translate to humans... it's the opposite, if anything. Rats aren't always useful :P

Anyone else have any studies they're interested in? I have access to some studies so I might be able to help out.
 
Ok I have a request now:

"Relationship between rgs2 gene expression level and anxiety and depression-like behavior in a mutant mouse model: serotonergic involvement"

journals.cambridge.org/action/displayAbstract?fromPage=online&aid=8419813

Can anyone help me out?
 
I have scholar access to the literature search engine of my local university library, so I can get the full text of most publications. Note that I will delete all shared files within 24 hours to avoid getting sued for copyright violation. If anyone needs some article, just ask.
