    Good to see this coming out. It’s not new or unique, though. OSTMED was jointly developed in 1997 as a bibliographic database by University of North Texas & Kirksville College of Osteopathic Medicine, & OSTMED.DR with full-text capability was introduced 15 years ago n 2006 by Edward Via College of Osteopathic Medicine & VTLS. OSTMED.DR is still available online & includes all PubMed osteopathic citations as well as from JAOA & other journals.
