PILOTS Trial Database
We have a trial to the database PILOTS (Published International Literature on Traumatic Stress). This is a bibliographic database produced at the headquarters of the National Center for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder in White River Junction, Vermont, and is sponsored by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. Its goal is to include citations to all literature on post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other mental-health conditions of traumatic events. Please follow the link to the Trials Databases page to try the database. Trial ends March 31, 2007.
