Kelly L et al. - Are all medical databases the same? The authors looked at how 7 major databases differed in the number of articles covered. The authors concluded that databases treat their articles in unique ways. Awareness of available databases and of the scope and organization of MeSH terms in these databases will help researchers choose the best ways to define search parameters that will adequately cover the desired topic. Creating search strategies specific to each database and its organization of MeSH terms will lead to more comprehensive results.
