1. PubMed, a bibliographic database dating back to early 1900, indexes:
   around 5600 international journals of medicine & medical sciences.
   around 2500 international journals of medicine & medical sciences.
   around 15000 international journals of medicine & medical sciences.
   none of the above
2. PubMed now also contains:
   around 800 e-books and reports that are free to everyone.

4. Typing antibiotics at the PubMed search box retrieves:
   articles talking about antibiotics or containing the text-word antibiotics in the indexed part of the article (title, abstract, subject…)
   articles talking about any antibiotic (such as penicillins, cephalosporins, tetracyclines etc….) even if they do not contain the word antibiotics in the indexed part of the article (title, abstract, subject…)
   all of the above
   none of the above
5. You searched PubMed and found an important article, but going through the links it does not open the full-text.
   This means that AUB does not subscribe to this journal.
   your next step should be to search "Journal Finder" to see if AUB subscribes to this journal.
   You should disregard this article.

8. You are interested in a topic, and want PubMed to directly send you an e-mail whenever new content about your topic is added (create e-mail alert), you have to use:
   Save Search and register My NCBI.
   This cannot be done on PubMed.
   You have to pay for this service.
