**cross-posted**
Hello. Here's the promised summary for the CINAHL filters. From the truncation symbols, it appears that these **CINAHL** filters are for the Ovid interface. Although some of these sites list Ovid MEDLINE filters, there are other Ovid MEDLINE filters out there. (That's another posting!) I haven't listed which one gets the best results-you'll need to do that. I have listed what makes them different, however. Please feel free to forward this email.
