Hi,

I am a second year student of physiotherapy (2009). We do a lot of work on evidence-based-practice, and therefore have to work quite a bit with research engines on scientific articles.

For a group work in which we assessed the efficacy of lachman, anterior drawer and pivot shift test to diagnose an ACL injury (vs MRI), we had the best-by-far results using google scholar

Apparently, this engine scams through a lot of different databases (pubmed, etc.). If you order the articles by date (most recent ones first), it might be even more helpful.

Some other factors can be settled in the advanced search.

type in GOOGLE SCHOLAR in google and you will find the engine. I cannot post links here (because I dont have enough posts), so you can bookmark it then if you want.

Cheers,
Kai
