Articles are selected from regular searches of CINAHL, PsycINFO, OVID Medline and EMBASE databases.
Please note:
- To find the GGC contributor, you need to view the full text of the article.
- Articles are included according to the month they were found in the database(s) - not necessarily the same month as they were originally published.
