| Description: |
The Bioethics subset of PubMed restricts the search to bioethics/medical
ethics literature.
PubMed provides access to bibliographic information, which is
drawn primarily from MEDLINE, PreMEDLINE, HealthSTAR, as well
as Publisher-Supplied citations. In addition, for electronically
supplied journals that are indexed selectively for MEDLINE, and
include articles unrelated to medicine or the life sciences, PubMed
includes all articles from that journal, not just those that are
included in MEDLINE. It is expected that access to additional
NLM databases will be added in the future.
MEDLINE is the NLM's premier bibliographic database covering
the fields of medicine, nursing, dentistry, veterinary medicine,
the health care system, and the preclinical sciences. MEDLINE
contains bibliographic citations and author abstracts from more
than 4,000 biomedical journals published in the United States
and 70 other countries. The file contains over 10 million citations
dating back to 1966 to the present. Coverage is worldwide, but
most records are from English-language sources or have English
abstracts.
