PubMed: Building a Search

Publicado 2020-06-30
In this lecture you'll learn a systematic approach to find relevant articles on a given topic in PubMed. You'll learn how to use a combination of keywords and controlled vocabulary; incorporate Boolean operators, truncation, and field tags; and run your search in PubMed. While this lecture demonstrates how to search PubMed, strategies presented are applicable for other biomedical databases such as Embase, APA PsycInfo, and CINAHL.

  • I have watched over 15 SMR/MA videos. This is the best ever. Thank you so much for your effort and time.

    This is SO exceptionally helpful and I don't know why it's not mentioned in curriculum (least at my school). I remember when I had to conduct a meta-analysis, I was doing searches so blindly. If I had seen this video, I'd have had an easier time.

    Wow! This was/is SO helpful!!!! I had no idea where to start with creating a proper search term for PubMed for my research and this has answered many of my questions. This was extremely thorough and I appreciate the "mistakes" you made to explain why you do things a certain way (building blocks method, spelling errors, etc). Thank you for making this video. With the recent updates to PubMed I struggled finding relevant/recent tutorial videos. You're like the Osmosis, Najeeb, Boards & Beyond of research lol.

  • This is a fantastic 'What to do First' video for starting our search. Very systematic, easy to follow, and very very applicable. All should use when doing systematic review. I am definitely sharing this video with my post grad students and juniours! 👍👍👍
