If the name are entered as (for example):
van Houtte, Andre, Jr.

Instead of:
Andre van Houtte Jr.

in the Author field, your database will not be messed up. Look in your
EndNote manual for more informations.  But, I do not know if, when you
import data from Medline, there is a way to instruct the software to enter
the data as: Last_Name, First_Name, Title.
