The National Library of
Medicine (NLM) recently added new terminology about systematic reviews to the
Medical Subject Headings (MeSH). In addition, the PubMed search filter for
systematic reviews has been updated. To learn more about these and related
changes to MeSH, MEDLINE, and PubMed, please see:
· "2019 MeSH Highlights": In
this webinar, presented in January 2019, NLM explained the changes in MeSH for
2019, including the introduction of the publication type "Systematic
Review" and subject heading "Systematic Reviews as Topic." A
recording of the webinar is available at https://www.nlm.nih.gov/bsd/disted/clinics/mesh_2019.html.
· MEDLINE Data Changes—2019: In this article, we detailed the MEDLINE data changes implemented
with the 2019 MeSH. We added the publication type "Systematic Review"
retrospectively to appropriate existing MEDLINE citations. With this
re-indexing, you can retrieve all MEDLINE citations for systematic reviews and
identify systematic reviews with high precision.
· PubMed Updates February 2019: NLM updated the search strategy for the Systematic Reviews filter to
focus retrieval on citations to systematic reviews. The Systematic Reviews
filter was originally introduced in PubMed in 2002 (New PubMed Filter: Systematic Reviews).
