    Clinical Queries and Systematic Reviews Tutorial


    I recommend this tutorial developed by the University of Florida. This
    link will take you to the section on Clinical Queries and Systematic Reviews.
    You should be able to breeze through the section in ten minutes. Why bother?
    PubMed's Clinical Queries was is intended for clinicians looking for 'evidence'
    ; it's a good place to start looking. Also note the History button
    on PubMed. This will give you the search history you need for your assignment.
