National Library of Medicine’s Medline: PubMed comprises over 21 million citations for biomedical literature from MEDLINE, life science journals, and online books. PubMed citations and abstracts include the fields of biomedicine and health, covering portions of the life sciences, behavioral sciences, chemical sciences, and bioengineering. PubMed also provides access to additional relevant web sites and links to the other NCBI molecular biology resources.
PubMed is a free resource that is developed and maintained by the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), at the U.S. National Library of Medicine (NLM), located at the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
Publishers of journals can submit their citations to NCBI and then provide access to the full-text of articles at journal web sites using LinkOut.

The direct link is here: PubMed This link is configured to connect you with journal subscriptions from Pratt Library and UC Libraries. This will allow you to see buttons with the library logos that will take you to the full-text article or to the Pratt Library journal list. The public version of PubMed won’t display these buttons for you and you will not be able to access full-text as easily.

clinical filters for evidence-based literature searches
This specialized search is intended for clinicians and has built-in search “filters.” Four study categories–therapy, diagnosis, etiology, prognosis–are provided, and you may indicate whether you wish your search to be more sensitive (i.e., include most relevant articles but probably including some less relevant ones) or more specific (i.e. including mostly relevant articles but probably omit a few). There is also a PubMed Clinical Queries Filter Table which describes the details of filtering.
PubMed Clinical Queries and Evidence-Based Medicine
The PubMed Clinical Queries page provides three specialized searches:
Publisher Created Tutorials
Clinical Studies: uses pre-set research methodology filters that enable the searcher to quickly locate relevant literature on etiology, diagnosis, therapy, prognosis, and clinical prevention guides.
Systematic Reviews finds citations for systematic reviews, meta-analyses, reviews of clinical trials, evidence-based medicine, consensus development conferences, and guidelines.
Medical Genetics: uses a pre-set medical genetics search filters that enable the search to quickly locate relevant literature on various topics in medical genetics.
Search Tip: Your search in Clinical Studies will only work if you select the appropriate search category.
