International Bibliographic Information on Dietary Supplements (IBIDS)

ods.od.nih.gov/databases/ibids.html

 

The IBIDS database contains citations published in international scientific

peer-reviewed journals on the topic of dietary supplements from 1986 to the

present. These citations were gleaned from the following databases: AGRICOLA,

AMED, BIOSIS, CAB Abstracts, EMBASE, ExtraMED, FSTA, IPA, MANTIS, MEDLINE, and

PsycINFO. Citations for articles in foreign languages are included only if the

abstract is in English. Using the IBIDS database requires a Java-enabled

browser. One can refine one's search in a variety of ways. The result is a list

of citations that can be both displayed on the browser and sent to the viewer as

email.

 

HealthWorld Online's Medline Database Search

www.healthy.net/library/search/medline.htm

 

A database search of medical literature going back to 1966, in many languages,

throughout the world. This site makes it easy to search for specific substances

(such as Vitamin C, folic acid, zinc, echinacea, glucosamine) in the title or

abstract. The search can be limited to specific languages, ages of people, or

humans only (no animal research). The search returns both the citation

information and an abstract.

 

PubMed Search of MEDLINE Database

www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/PubMed

 

PubMed searches a database of biomedical literature (MEDLINE) at the National

journal publishers. The MEDLINE database contains 9 million citations, dating

back to 1966. Coverage is worldwide, but most of the articles or their abstracts

are in English. The Clinical Query portion of the search engine narrows the

search to several varieties of clinical trials.
