In this section about searching PubMed we have learnt that:
 |
Searching
for Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) is done in the MeSH database.
Selecting subheadings or exploding MeSH is possible. |
|
To
see the searches you have done, click on History |
|
Limiting your search results can be done by selecting a Publication Type, or by combining your search with a textword or MeSH to retrieve particular study designs. Using the Clinical Queries feature can also help to obtain relevant types of study design. |
|
PubMed
has a Clipboard to store references, and a Related Article feature to
help identify other useful articles. |
|
|
PubMed
provides abstracts, but for some full text access NHS staff need to
register for ejournal access |
