Overview of Online Resources • Research and Clinical Databases • e-Journals • e-Books • Consumer Health • Evidence-Based Summaries
Journal Article Databases • CINAHL Complete, MEDLINE, and Science Direct are most frequently used resources to find journal articles on dietetics and nutrition topics. • Search this section when you need articles on subjects, e.g., child nutrition disorders, diet therapy, etc. • Databases in this section provide links to full text journal articles and other resources • You must start at the library’s Nutritional Sciences web page to access our subscribed full text http://library.nsuok.edu/collegesh/healthpr/dn/index.html

Databases – Ovid MEDLINE • Premier biomedical database from the National Library of Medicine • Provides journal articles in over 5,000 journals from 1946 to present in medicine, nursing, health care system, and allied health care practice, education, and research • Useful to find articles on the relation of nutrition disorders to medical problems, e.g. “intake of fruits and vegetables to prevent cardiovascular diseases”
Use MEDLINE to locate • Articles that report results of primary (original) studies • Conclusions supported by data and reproducible methodology • Hints: • Search the Daily Update, and In-Process segments simultaneously with desired range of years • Search keywords along with subject headings
