PubMed Filters
From the initial (HINARI) PubMed page,
we will run the HIV and pregnancy
search and then apply various Filters.
After completion of a search, the default
Filters are displayed in a left-column
frame. We will apply different Filters to
the results of the HIV and pregnancy
search - a total of 14628 citations.
Initially we will apply the Publication dates filter.
We have clicked on the 5 years option. This
limits the search results to 3549. Note the check
mark next to Publication Dates section. Also note
clear icon. There is a Clear all option at the
bottom of the page. If you do not clear your
options, they will be applied to future searches.
In the Specify Custom Date Range
filter, we have entered the first date of
2014 range to date (2014/01/01 to
blank) and clicked on the Apply icon.
By using a 2014 01 01 Specify Custom
Date Range filter, we have 286 citations
for HIV AND pregnancy search. Below
the results, there is the Filters activated
line that includes the Clear all option.
The specific Filters Activated is noted
with a check mark. We will click on the
Clear option to remove this . You also
can click on the specific filter.
We have cleared all the Filters and the
results of the HIV and pregnancy search
are the initial number of 14628 citations.
We have clicked on the Show
additional filters link and now
will check the Languages box
and click on Show.
Displayed is the drop down
menu for Languages filters.
Note that English is the
default language and more
than one can be checked.
We now will investigate the Article
types filters. The default types are
displayed. By clicking on more…,
you can display other options.
We have clicked on the more…
option for Article types and opened
the drop down menu. We will add
Review and Practice Guidelines
article types and click on Show.
In the Article types, we have clicked on
the Practice Guidelines and Review
options. The results of the HIV and
pregnancy search are 2348 citations.
Remember to clear these filters.
We have clicked on Show additional filters
and the drop down menu has been
displayed. We will add the Ages option by
checking the box and clicking on Show.
By clicking on more… in the Ages
filters, all the options are displayed.
For the HIV and pregnancy search, we
will check the Adolescent: 13-18 years
and Young Adult:19-24 years boxes
and click on Show. Once displayed,
we will click on the new Ages filters.
The two Ages filters are checked
and highlighted and HIV and
pregnancy search is reduced to
3681 citations. Below the results,
there is the Filters activated line
that includes the Clear all option.
We will view one final additional
set of filters by clicking the
Search fields box and Show.
A new drop down menu is
displayed. We will highlight the
Affiliation option and click on Apply.
After this filter is activated, we will
type WHO in the PubMed search
box and click on Search.
The results of the WHO affiliation
search are 7571 citations. In the
Abstract display option, we have
clicked on the Author information link.
Note the World Health Organization
affiliation of the authors.
We now will activate the journal
Search field filter, enter emerging
infectious diseases in the PubMed
search box and click on Apply.
The results of the emerging infectious
diseases journal affiliation search are
6630 citations. This search lists the
total number of articles from this
journal in PubMed. Remember to
clear this Journal search field filter.
We now will activate the Author Search
field filter, enter ribeiro in the PubMed
search box and click on Apply.
The results of the ribeiro author
search are 11063 citations. This
search lists the total number of
articles by all authors named
ribeiro in PubMed.
To further filter this search,
add the author’s initial(s). The
results of the Ribeiro e author
search are 484 citations.
The original HIV and pregnancy
search has been displayed. We will
discuss the Text availability filters.
In this example the Free full text
available filter has been activated. The
search results are 3578 citations. This
lower number includes 2077 HINARI
citations but these are HINARI/Free Full
Text articles only. Therefore, we
recommend not using these filters.
• Reminder: While working with Filters, you
probably noticed the line that Text availability
Filter that has the Abstract, Free full text, Full
text available options. By clicking on these
options, you would filter your search to include
all articles with abstracts or full text articles or
those articles that are available as free full text
by various publishers or those citations that
have abstracts.
• Note: if you click only on Free full text and NOT
Full text, your HINARI tab will be limited to only
articles that are both free full text and HINARI –
a significantly less #.
This is the end of the HINARI Basic Course
