New Product: Casemaker Medical

Sue Altmeyer, Electronic Services Librarian, sue.altmeyer@law.csuohio.edu | April 02, 2008 - 18:10

Those interested in medical research may want to sign up for a thirty day free trial of Casemaker Medical . Unlike regular Casemaker, the product is not free with an Ohio bar membership. (Regular Casemaker is available at the two public access terminals in the law library. See our prior post.)

Casemaker Medical offers an advanced way to look for medical articles from MEDLINE and Cochrane. You can search by using all or part of a document as a search criteria, such as an expert's report; patient's medical summary; or deposition transcript. The user can choose which concepts in the document will receive greater weight in the search results. Additionally, Casemaker Medical suggests search terms and conceptual categories. Expert profiles are generated for each retrieved author.

Casemaker Medical only provides full text articles if they are offered for free on Medline. If you have a Lonesome Doc account, you can order articles right from Casemaker Medical.

Thanks to Laura Ray for her input.
