PubMed is a free web-based interface for searching MEDLINE.
- PubMed is created by the National Library of Medicine, and contains the MEDLINE database.
- It covers journal articles in medicine, nursing, dentistry, veterinary medicine, and the health care system.
- PubMed has information about journal articles(currently over 24 million) published in 5,600 journals in 30 languages dating back to 1946.
- It does not include information about meeting abstracts, conference proceedings, dissertations, patents, or websites.
- NLM indexers add words called Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) to the information about each article. Searching with MeSH words helps you find more relevant articles.
