Hi there,
I am running some search querries on FRANCIS. I have 3 options to export the readings: refwork; endnote or text file. I've chosen the latter, but when trying to convert it into RIS format here, I get an error display as follows: "No references were imported. Please check the correct filter was used".
See below for the whole Text File export. The Start Tag is 'Database:' the end Tag is "Database:" not 'EOR:' or 'EOR:-".
Grateful if anyone can help troubleshoot why I'm getting the error display.
Cheers,
M

Abstract: Arsenic poisoning of tubeweil water, which constitutes the primary source of drinking water, has become the greatest health threat to the people of rural Bangladesh. Somewhere
between 35 to 57 million people in the country are now suspected of being affected by drinking water contaminated with arsenic. While the Bangladesh government, non-government organizations (NGOs),
and bilateral and multilateral assistance agencies are involved in combating this dreadful problem, all of their efforts to date have proceeded without having grassroots information about arsenic
poisoning. The objectives of this study are to investigate the level of knowledge rural residents have regarding arsenic poisoning and to identify the correlates of that knowledge. Questionnaire
surveys administered among residents of four rural areas in Bangladesh provided the major data source for this study. Twenty villages were selected from moderate and low arsenic risk regions and a
total of 356 respondents, 177 from medium risk regions and 179 from low risk regions, were interviewed. Analysis of the survey data reveals that arsenic awareness is currently not widespread in the
study villages, particularly in the low arsenic risk region. There are also gaps in arsenic knowledge regarding the diseases caused by arsenic poisoning and mitigating measures available to prevent
contamination. This study identified arsenic risk region, level of education, gender, and age as important determinants of arsenic knowledge. The findings of this study will aid in making existing
health education programs more effective and in reducing the risk of developing arsenic-related illnesses.
