This is an amazing example! Brain CT. Never thought of this :) Thank you Jean. May I have permission to share this in classes I teach, telling them that I have got this from you via the medlib list? One example that I use while teaching is if someone searches the single word CIRRHOSIS, it maps to fibrosis as a mesh term. In case they expect it to map tp liver cirrhosis, then they are mistaken. Of course, this is a good example while teaching mesh, but not as direct as Brain CT :) Another example I give is that if you search for Asthma and COPD, while you may get relevant results you also get some like this: Small airways diseases, *excluding* asthma and COPD: an overview. <https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23728867> PMID: 23728867 If either of the above two is good for you, do use them Jean Vasumathi Sriganesh QMed Knowledge Foundation Mumbai 400099, India Tel: 91-22-40054474 Mob: +919867292230 Email: [log in to unmask] Web:www.qmed.ngo MMC Speaker Code - MMC/MASS/00030/2016 ​Member: Academy of Health Professions Education <http://www.qmed.ngo/donate/> On Sat, Jun 2, 2018 at 1:10 AM, Jenkins, Jean <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > I'll be orienting new residents to our hospital library and teaching them > to search PubMed in a few weeks.
