 NIF Data Spotlight: PubMedHealth-Drug  

NIF Data Spotlight: PubMedHealth-Drug



In previous blog post, we have looked at NCBI's Entrez: Gene. This week we will be take a look at another component of NCBI, PubMedHealth: Drug. PubMed Health offers up-to-date information on diseases, conditions, drugs, treatment options, and healthy living, with a special focus on comparative effectiveness research from institutions around the world. We will be focusing on the drug portion and how it can be accessed through the NIF.

Drug title, questions regarding the drug and its answers can be searched through the NIF. For example, if you need more information on oxycodone, a strong pain reliever, try searching NIF for "oxycodone use". PubMedHealth: Drug can be navigated by Data Type > Drugs > PubMedHealth: Drug (shown below).

The results will show the drug name, title (which is a question), and text (which is an answer to the question). Clicking the drug title will take you to the PubMed Health page with more detailed information about the drug.






The NIF Data Spotlight is a weekly blog post highlighting the databases, information, and resources curated by the Neuroscience Information Framework. For comments, questions or concerns feel free to drop us a line at curation@neuinfo.org.
