E-Resources News

PubMed

  • Searches now lead to additional citations.  The Automatic Term Mapping (ATM) feature, which previously mapped search input only to MeSH heading and Text Word fields, was augmented to include “All Fields” searching.  Why is this important? 


    • ‘Burns’ was searched only as a MeSH heading or Text Word, and not also as an author or journal title, in the old ATM.  In the new ATM, articles by and published in the journal Burns will also be retrieved.
    • ‘Gene therapy’ and other multi-word terms, previous were searched only as MeSH headings or Text Words, are now ANDed together so articles with phrases, such as “clinical applications of gene silencing therapy…,” are also retrieved.
  • Related Reviews section added to AbstractPlus, PubMed’s discovery display format that leads searchers to other information resources.  Now, in addition to Related Articles, those related articles indexed with the Publication Type ‘Review” appear in a separate section.  


  • Summary Results page now includes results from other high-quality sources, such as the Drug Sensor.
