Abstract

Ichushi-Web is a medical bibliographic database which has 15 million records from 7,800 journals in the fields of medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, nursing and more in Japan. It is widely used in educational institutions, hospitals, companies, etc. In order to search articles effectively from a large amount of data, Medical Term Thesaurus and Subheadings are useful. It is also possible to select research design tags (meta-analysis, randomized controlled trials, etc.) to narrow down to articles with high level evidence. This article introduces the outline of Ichushi-Web and its search method.
