      • Mar. 29: Advanced PubMed (Productivity & Efficiency) (TODAY)
      • Apr. 3: Getting Articles: Loansome Doc Etc.
      • Apr. 5: Finding the Clinical Internet
    3. Handouts for Today
      • These slides
      • FRIAR form
    4. Advanced PubMed - Productivity & Efficiency
      • Using the History function
      • Using parentheses to structure a search
      • Saving a search
        • Details - URL
        • MyNCBI
      • Create an RSS feed
    5. PubMed
    6. PubMed: History
      • Search one term or concept.
      • Search another term or concept.
      • Click History tab.
      • Combine the two (or more) searches by using the search number with boolean operators.
      • The boolean operators (AND, OR or NOT) must be capitalized.
    7. PubMed: History: What It Can and Can’t Do
      • History display may seem a little confusing until you get used to it.
      • Search History lost after 8 hours
      • All searches shown in reverse chronological order, can use numbers that are not adjacent or in sequence
      • Save searches by clicking on #
      • Combine searches by number (#) and operator (AND, OR, NOT)
    8. PubMed: History
    9. PubMed: History
      • Concept: BBTD
        • Bbtd
        • Baby bottle tooth decay
        • Early childhood caries
        • Nursing caries
        • Infant tooth decay
        • Bottle caries
        • Milk caries
        • Milk bottle caries
        • Etc. …
    10. PubMed: History
      • Concept: BBTD
        • Repeated terms:
          • Tooth decay
          • Caries
        • Terms combined with repeated terms:
          • Baby bottle
          • Early childhood
          • Nursing
          • Infant
          • Milk
          • Bottle
        • Unique ‘terms’ representing complete concept
          • BBTD
          • ECC
    11. PubMed: History: Example
    12. PubMed: History: Example
      • Be sure to capitalize AND, OR when combining set numbers.
      • Be sure to use the number sign (#) before the numeral.
    13. PubMed: History: Example
      • Screenshots show search statements and how they are combined to make a complete search.
    14. PubMed: History
      • PROS:
        • Allows constructing a complex search by chunking concepts
        • Allows mixing and matching concepts to find what works
        • Final result can be searched in My NCBI
      • CONS:
        • Only works in the current search session
        • Cannot be saved as a bookmark
    15. PubMed: Using Parentheses
      • Same search done as a single line search statement by using parentheses to group the same terms or concepts
      • Remember groupings for this concept:
        • Repeated terms
        • Combined terms with repeated terms
        • Unique terms
        • For example: ( ( (repeated terms) AND (combined terms) ) OR unique terms)
    16. PubMed: Using Parentheses
      • For example:
        • ( (repeated terms) AND (combined terms) ) OR (unique terms)

    17. PubMed: Using Parentheses
      • For example:
        • ( ( (repeated terms) AND (combined terms) ) OR unique term)
        • ( (repeated terms) AND (combined terms) ) OR (unique terms)
      • For example:
        • ((caries OR tooth decay) AND ("early childhood" OR "baby bottle" OR nursing OR "milk bottle" OR infant)) OR (ecc OR bbtd)
        • ((caries OR tooth decay) AND ("baby bottle" OR nursing OR "milk bottle" OR infant)) OR (“early childhood caries” OR bbtd)
    18. PubMed: Using Parentheses
      • For example:
        • ( (repeated terms) AND (combined terms) ) OR (unique terms)
      • For example:
        • ((caries OR tooth decay) AND ("early childhood" OR "baby bottle" OR nursing OR "milk bottle" OR infant)) OR (ecc OR bbtd)
    19. PubMed: Using Parentheses
      • For example:
        • ((caries OR tooth decay) AND ("early childhood" OR "baby bottle" OR nursing OR "milk bottle" OR infant)) OR (ecc OR bbtd)
      • What did PubMed think this said:
    20. PubMed: Saving Searches: Details
    21. PubMed: Saving Searches: URL
