Abstract : | [Introduction] More than 500,000 Medline-indexed articles have been published in each of the last five years. In dental journals alone, more than 10,000 articles were published in 2004. Limited time and a lack of knowledge about how to search for appropriate information often become barriers for practitioners who would like to find the best current research relating to the treatment of their patients. Finding the best article through PubMed may no longer be the best strategy for acquiring the most useful information. There is no single place we can go to get the best answer to all our questions. In addition, it is difficult to extract high quality clinical studies from the mass of information in large journal databases. Thus, the movement is toward using easily accessed "secondary" sources to provide the clinician with already validated and summarized answers to clinical questions. We describe below the advantage of using secondary information sources, and we give major examples of secondary resources and briefly describe their features in this paper. |
