Using filters
Search filters are designed to help you find clinically relevant research from health databases. They are usually methodological (finding specific publication types or study designs) or subject based (finding articles within specific areas of study). Using filters for a particular topic or methodology may improve your search sensitivity or decrease the number of irrelevant results. Filters are also useful for identifying additional search terms.
