==How to Run a Search in PubMed==
PubMed is an ideal way to find technical, scientific articles that will qualify as professional sourcing for medical claims. To run a search in PubMed:
# Go to the [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/advanced advanced search feature].
# If seeking secondary sources, set Publication Type to 'review.'
# If you'd prefer recent articles within the past 5 years, set Date-Publication accordingly.
# Simply enter search terms you are looking for as 'All Fields' although you can restrict the search to 'Title', 'Text Word', or 'Text/Abstract' if you wish.
==PubMed Identifier==
