1) You are interested in researching smoking cessation and the literature discussing pharmacologic versus behavioral strategies. You have been told that the appropriate MeSH heading is “smoking cessation,” but you want to use the MeSH database in PubMed to verify this term. You also know that you only want articles that meet the following criteria: English-language, have an abstract, no older than 5 years, exclusively from nursing journals, and are systematic reviews; thus, you limit your search by using the “Limits” functions found on the PubMed search screen. Execute your search, and examine the results. (This exercise was adapted from a practice case by Wilkinson and Real (2017), Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center.)

2) To gain a greater understanding of evidence-based nursing, conduct a search for published literature on how aspirin is used for prevention of myocardial infarction. Choose the CINAHL Plus with Full Text database produced by EBSCOhost. Develop a search strategy for this topic. Review your results.
