This tool searches across several of our subscription databases and journals simultaneously.

1. The tag [tiab] shows results where the searched term(s) appear in the title or abstract. The tag [majr] shows results where the searched MeSH term(s) is a major topic of the article.

2. Combine one of the starters above with a specific problem: Ex. social determinants of health[majr] AND food insecurity

The Healthy People 2030 objectives have been published and can be found on https://health.gov/healthypeople

At this time, premade PubMed queries have not yet been created for each objective. But where objectives remain the same from 2020 to 2030, you can use the resource below to get the latest articles that relate to each objective.
