text only; however, this will severely limit your search results. Since you have access 
to a library that can provide the full text to you, no matter where it may be housed 
outside of the CINAHL database, we suggest that you DO NOT limit your search to 
full text only.

Cochrane Logo illustrates a systematic review of data from 7 randomized 
controlled trials (RCT) comparing one health care treatment with a placebo.
Each horizontal line represents results of one trial.

between the treatments.
