Featured Resource: MANTIS
In case you've been wondering, the MANTIS™ database has nothing to do with large green insects. Its name is an acronym that stands for Manual, Alternative, and Natural Therapy Index System. It is billed as the "largest source of osteopathic, chiropractic, and manual medical literature in the world," and it's produced right here in North Texas by Action Potential, Inc.
MANTIS™ is a primary healthcare database that emphasizes health promotion, prevention, and conservative care. It contains more than 400,000 references from more than 1,000 journals, including all of the peer-reviewed osteopathic and chiropractic journals. Approximately 70% of the references include abstracts, but the database does not include the full text of articles at this time. It is updated weekly, with more than 3,500 new records added each year. Coverage is from 1900 to the present.
