Hello, everyone. I wanted to point
out that PubMed’s Sensitive/Broad Therapy Clinical Query filter is
outdated—when one does a search, an error message says:
The following term was not found: clinical trials[MeSH Terms].
When I look up Clinical Trials in the MeSH
Database, it maps to a couple likely candidates, including “Clinical
Trials as Topic” or “Clinical Trial [Publication Type]”—both
were introduced this year.
I called NLM and reported this, but I have
a feeling that if they get more calls and emails, they’ll act quicker.
The phone number for NLM is: (888) 346-3656; their email is: [log in to unmask] and their
online form is at: http://apps.nlm.nih.gov/mainweb/siebel/nlm/index.cfm
(Here’s what the Sensitive/Broad
Therapy Clinical Query filter currently looks like: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query/static/clinicaltable.html)
Take care,
