In this session•What is PubMed?
•Database overlap and coverage
•Embase, the “European Medline”
•BIOSIS: biology, life sciences
•Other biomedical databases
![Page 3: Beyond PubMed: exploring other biomedical databases](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020308/56814474550346895db10a5e/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
What is PubMed?
• A way of searching MEDLINE: • U.S. National Library of Medicine (NLM) bibliographic database
• biomedicine and life sciences, bioengineering, public health, clinical care,
and plant and animal science .
![Page 4: Beyond PubMed: exploring other biomedical databases](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020308/56814474550346895db10a5e/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Medline• Over 19 million references to journal articles, including reviews and clinical trials.
• Gathered from 4,600 biomedical journals published in the USA and 70 other countries.
• 1950 - present.

PubMed with Oxford links
• Use this version to get authenticated access to Oxford's full-text (via the "Find it @ Oxford" icon which appears in each record).
•www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?myncbishare=Oxford_HCL
• This is the link used on SOLO, Oxlip+ and our library pages.

EMBASEEMBASE differs from Medline in a couple of ways• EMBASE has a particular focus on drugs &
pharmacology• EMBASE covers a wider range of non- English
language journals• To get the advantages of both Medline and
EMBASE use SCOPUS
![Page 7: Beyond PubMed: exploring other biomedical databases](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020308/56814474550346895db10a5e/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
SCOPUS• Good coverage- especially in Medicine as it
covers both Medline and EMBASE• It is a very large database covering 18,000 +
journal titles as well as some book series and conferences
• Also links to Scientific web sites through SCIRUS• It has an easy-to-use interface with useful add-
ons such as citation tracker & journal analyzer

BIOSIS Previews• Life sciences & biomedical research covering
pre-clinical & experimental research, methods and instrumentation, animal studies, & more.
• 5000 journals• Plus conferences, patents, and books • 1926 - present• Updated weekly

Clinical databases
• TRIP (Turning Research into Practice)• evidence for clinical practice
• UpToDate• authoritative answers to clinical questions
![Page 12: Beyond PubMed: exploring other biomedical databases](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020308/56814474550346895db10a5e/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Cochrane Library
• a collection of databases that contain high-quality, independent evidence to inform healthcare decision-making.
• Cochrane reviews represent the highest level of evidence on which to base clinical treatment decisions
• Systematic reviews
