Abstract

In February 2020, the Association of Anaesthetists was delighted to announce that Anaesthesia Reports would be indexed on the PubMed database. This is the result of the tireless work performed by the Editors and staff of both the Journal and our publisher John Wiley & Sons, and reflects the excellent quality of the case reports submitted to us by our authors. But why is PubMed indexing such a cause for celebration?

This may be as part of a literature search or systematic review, for example, and is used in the calculation of bibliometrics. A number of databases are available, usually with a subject‐specific focus. In medicine, the most prominent databases include PubMed, the Excerpta Medicine Database (EMBASE), and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials.
