LEARNING OBJECTIVES
1. Descrihe what is meant by "primary literature" in the
health sciences.
2. Discuss the characteristics of the major primary and
summarizing databases used by health professionals.
3. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of searching
the Internet for professional health information.
4. Illustrate how popular Internet search engines can be
used to find unique information in the health sciences.
The primary literature in the health sciences consists of re-
ports of original research generally published in the form of
articles in scholarly/academic journals. Ihe articles in these
journals are indexed by searchable databases such as MED-
LINE, CINAHL, and EMBASE, which function as an aid
to finding articles on a desired topic. The primary literature
has the advantage of being a direct communication from the
researchers who performed the inv.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

5. Types of citations
First, you need to determine what the item is, ie. a book or a journal article.
Usually you look for what is in italics. Book citations have publisher and place
of publication. Journal articles usually have a volume and issue number.
Book
Journal Article

6. Library search options
Search – use keywords to search all collections
Catalogue – to find books and reserve materials
Journals – specific journal title searching
Databases – subject based journal searching
Google Scholar – change your preferences on your home computer
to identify and have access to La Trobe titles. Instructions are
available via the Google scholar tab.

8. Types of Databases….
Citation databases:
entries have the citation, subject headings and often an abstract, sometimes they link to
full text .Examples: Cinahl, Embase, Medline
Full Text databases:
entries have the citation and abstract and in most cases the full text of an article
available for output. Examples: Expanded Academic, Meditext, Proquest
Pre-appraised evidence databases:
Clinical Evidence - summarises the current state of knowledge and uncertainty about
the prevention and treatment of clinical conditions, based on thorough searches and
appraisal of the literature.
The Cochrane Library is a multi-database resource which varies in output e.g. the
Cochrane Database for Systematic Reviews contains complete systematic reviews
Peer-reviewed:
Scopus - Scopus is the world's largest abstract and citation database of peer-reviewed
literature.
PubMed – PubMed has access to over 22 million references, including MEDLINE databases

9. Formulating a question
Before you begin your search, you will need to understand what you are looking
for.
Compile a list of Keywords for the concepts, including as many synonyms as
necessary.
The concept map helps with articulating your research question and with
maintaining the logic of the search (where to use AND, where to use OR - the
Boolean linking terms for your keywords). Use truncation, * to search for
variables of a word, prevent* will return prevent, preventative and prevention.
Or quotation marks for a “term search”.

Exercise
Prevention

11. PubMed - ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed
PubMed comprises over 22 million citations for biomedical literature from MEDLINE, life science journals, in-process
citations and online books. PubMed citations and abstracts include the fields of medicine, nursing, dentistry,
veterinary medicine, the health care system, and preclinical sciences. PubMed also provides access to additional
relevant websites 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).
PubMed indexes articles using controlled vocabulary called Medical Subject Headings (MeSH). This enables all
articles about a certain subject to be retrieved, even if different terms for the concept are used in the article, such
as myocardial infarction or heart attack.
The PubMed search engine uses "automatic term mapping" to map your search to the appropriate MeSH term. You
can display the MeSH terms for a citation in Abstract View as shown below

12. Scopus
Scopus is a comprehensive scientific, medical, technical and social science
database containing all relevant literature. Scopus covers subject areas:
chemistry, physics, mathematics and engineering, life and health sciences,
social science, psychology and economics, biological, agricultural and
environmental sciences, and general sciences.
