A few of the titles in Locatorplus look promising, but I have to follow-up with the video producers as the descriptions are not specific enough to tell me what I need to know about the video contents.

Summary: Natural Medicines Comprehensive Database April 06

Angela Murrell — 2006-04-20T16:08:18

Thanks to everyone who responded about the Natural Medicines database, and to the 2 or 3 people who reminded me to search the list archives. Being new to medical libraries and the list, I had no idea the database was around for so long. I am pasting the comments I received this time around, as I feel you can never have too much ammo to support a product purchase. I also included the information about the previous summary. -Angela You need to search the Medlib Archives. I posted a long summary of answers to a similar question on January 18, 2006. My subject line read: Ref Q: Electronic resources for herbs, supplements SUMMARY *** Be sure to carefully read the license agreement and be very clear with the publisher about what your users expect. We have had problems with this publisher and unwritten rules about usage. For example, they have shut off access to all of our users because someone downloaded more than 10 documents at one time. It was legitimate clinical use but the publisher made it clear that this would happen anytime more than 10 documents were downloaded. The info in the database is good, it's the publisher who is a problem. *** I don't have the e version, only the print, but it's considered the 'gold standard' in herbal med. *** We've had Natural Medicines for quite some time and our pharmacists as well as physicians and nurses use it and like it very much. Its been a while since I checked statistics but last time I did--it had a very high usage rate. Much higher than I had expected. Pharmacists at our primary care clinic love it. We don't have any other herbal/supplement resources--our other electronic pharmacy database is Micromedex. *** It's an excellent tool, but a library site license is not cheap; I believe the last quote I had for our school was in the $1200 range. There is also a print version which is a great deal--I think about $95. *** We had a brief subscription to this database and it was very comprehensive and informative. It cited evidence-based studies, drug interactions and much more information including pictures of the plants if necessary, common names, etc. It is very expensive though and we could not justify the cost with such limited usage as our doctors gave it. Our cost was $1400/year It would have been a great consumer education tool. *** We have had a subscription to this database for 3 years. It really is a good resource because so many patients take all kinds of non-prescription "remedies". It supplies information on any drug interactions and more. *** I purchased this one year (2003), but I don't believe it got much use. I still have the book format that we received with our online subscription. I like it, but like I mentioned, it did not get much use. This doesn't help much! *** I work in a public library and we originally had the Natural Medicines Professional database. As a librarian, I loved it. It was extremely comprehensive and the user is able to link to the references in PubMed. They have an extensive list of brand name products, which has been helpful. There is also an interaction cheker which allows you to check interactions between natural products and prescription & OTC medications. However, the information provided was too complex for most of our patrons. I switched to the Consumer version which does not provide as in-depth information, but is much easier for the general public to use (in terms of readability). The Consumer version still offers the same features as the Professional. When I teach classes on using the health databases (which are attended mostly by seniors) everyone is very excited about the information here. However, there are a lot of options on the search page which I feel poses some difficulty for people who are not as comfortable using a computer. This database is very expensive, but I feel it is money well spent: the information is evidence-based, easy to read and I have been able to find obscure natural products for patrons. *** Our Pharmacists say this is the best source for herbals - especially good for herb-herb, drug-herb, lab-test-herb interactions and the brand names the herb could be sold under... *** One of our physicians, an Alternative specialist, prefers this one over Natural Standards. If you click into the Medlib-l archives, you will find a summary and some comparisons. There is an article in MRSQ on Natural Standards - have not as yet checked for the Natural Database (I think it is produced by Harvard). *** We have used it for two or three years and we like it very much. I like the clear organization of the monographs and the copious references to studies in the literature. It seems easier to use than the Review of Natural Products from Facts and Comparisons, though I really do like eFacts for most other things. *** And finally a comment from one of my own Physicians: I have used the database for some time and find it a good balance of evidence based and clinician friendly. I am familiar with the resources you have mentioned (for HDIs as well as the IBIDS) through my directorship of the Scripps Clinic Natural Supplements An Evidence Based Update yearly conference as well as being a member of the NIH ODS review committee for significant advances in Dietary Supplement research. I find the IBIDS helpful for literature review, but not as helpful in providing the immediate answers regarding safety, efficacy for a said supplement or combination of med/herb. I have also utilized a number of HDI searchable databases (micromedix, up to date, facts and comparisons, etc) and find the natural database the most comprehensive and frequently updated.

REF: stumped on cancer query

Bonnie Rosen — 2006-04-20T15:36:12

Dear Medlibbers, My patron is sure there must be something on postoperative chemoradiation (chemoradiotherapy, radiochemotherapy) for esophageal cancer. I have found every other combination, including a meta-analysis (BMC Medicine 2004) which lists every other possible combination of therapies. There is postoperative chemoradiation for gastric cancer, but he wants something specific to esophageal cancer. I have mainly searched PubMed, also Google, ASCO abstracts and clinical trials.gov. Any thoughts from those who do a lot of cancer searches? Maybe it is not really there...
