Answer to Question 1

A
The Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews is one of the most popular databases in the Cochrane Library. It evaluates individual clinical trials and condenses systematic reviews from more than 100 medical journals. The database provides an efficient method of interpreting the results of many studies.

Answer to Question 2

C
Medline is the largest biomedical research literature database (more than 10 million references) for general information. Medline compiles information from Index Medicus, Index to Dental Li-terature, and International Nursing Index. Because of its large size, it is challenging to find a specific topic.
