This blog has been created to share PubMed search strategies. Search strategies posted here are not perfect. They are posted in the hope that others will benefit from the work already put into their creation and/or will offer suggestions for improvements. Librarians who wish to post comments on this blog or who wish to become authors are invited to e-mail me (Cindy Schmidt). I'm not posting my unmc.edu e-mail address here, but it's easy to find on the web : - ).

Peri-operative Period, EMTREE and keywords, for EMBASE
This strategy was created to cover the "peri-operative" portion of a routine (non-exhaustive) search for articles with a major focus on peri-operative pain management. It's just an initial stab at the peri-operative concept. Additional procedure names could be added to the yellow highlighted section; the proximity operators could be handled differently; terms for operating room personnel, anesthetists, surgeons, etc could be added, etc, etc.

Sexual and gender minorities
This is an update of a 2010 search strategy on LGBT-terms, using recently introduced MeSH-terms and with more extensive free text terms.
Due to the amount of noise they generate, intersex and non-binary are not included, but are mostly covered by other terms in the search strategy.
The original search strategy also included terms related to homophobia.
