258 Alternative Cardiovascular Medicine CATEGORIZED INFORMATION RESOURCES ON CAM FOR CVD ON THE WEB Most organizations now have Web sites that can be accessed for updating and finding new data; this is an advantage over print information that may date quickly. For clarity, the following resources are presented and categorized separately, in Tables 1–9. The URL is provided, along with a brief description of how the resource can be used to find CAM information pertinent to heart disease. Almost all of these Web-based resources are free and available without paid subscription. News and journal sites usually require free registration, and the health-information portals usually require paid subscription. This information is provided with the description. Already familiar information on conventional cardiology professional journals and professional associations has not been included. Finally, a quick guide, especially targeted for your patients, is provided.
Chapter 16 / A Guide for Physicians 259 Table 1 Major Databases Major Databases for Published Research PubMed http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi PubMed is a service of the National Library of Medicine, providing access to more than 12 million MEDLINE and additional life science journal articles. A new feature, CAM on PubMed, developed in partnership with the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine at NIH, provides a subset of more than 220,000 articles relevant to CAM. Go to PubMed and click on the “Limits” function (underneath the search box). From the Subsets pull-down menu, select “Complementary Medicine,” and then search from within this subset by typing in relevant keywords, such as “heart” or “cardiovascular.” Limit your search further with additional keywords and limits. IBIDS http://ods.od.nih.gov/databases/ibids.html International Bibliographic Information on Dietary Supplements (IBIDS) is a database of published, international, scientific literature on dietary supplements, including vitamins, minerals, and botanicals, produced by the Office of Dietary Supplements at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). You can select from peer-reviewed and non-peer-reviewed literature for searches. HerbMed http://www.herbmed.org HerbMed is a project of the nonprofit Alternative Medicine Foundation and presents categorized information on more than 160 medicinal herbs, compiled by pharmacologists and pharmacognosists. There is a dynamic updating feature that automatically generates live PubMed updates for each category of information. Search on heart AND cardiovascular and any other choice of keyword. Phytochemical and Ethnobotanical Databases http://www.ars-grin.gov/duke/ This site links to Dr. James Duke’s US Department of Agruculture (USDA) databases, as well as other related databases. Ongoing Clinical Research and Trials CRISP http://www.crisp.cit.nih.gov/ Computer Retrieval of Information on Scientific Projects (CRISP) is a searchable database of NIH-funded research and intramural research projects. It covers mainly conventional biomedicine but contains a growing proportion of CAM projects and clinical trials. The best search strategy may be to initially confine your search to the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute.
