+===== How to write a ClinicalTrials.gov query =====
 Use AND/OR/NOT, in combination with keywords to narrow in on trials of interest. [[https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/results?cond=&term=dizziness+AND+NOT+exhaustion+AND+stroke&cntry=&state=&city=&dist=|For example]]:

Use parentheses if the logical operators become numerous and ambiguous, and use quotes if your keywords contain spaces.

+===== Alternative Option: Copy Query from ClinicalTrials.gov =====
+If you have already performed a search in ClinicalTrials.gov, and simply want to copy that query into Literature Search so it continues updating on your schedule, follow these steps:
+  - Input search terms as normal and click "Search"
+{{  :undefined:ctgov.png?nolink&  }}
+  - In the search bars at the top click "Advanced Search"
+{{  :undefined:advaned.png?nolink&  }}
+  - Then click "Expert Search" in the top right
+{{  :undefined:expertsearch.png?nolink&  }}
+  - Your query will then be displayed in the correct format. Copy and paste this into the automatic search in NK.

 ===== Integration with NK =====
-You can conduct searches of clinicaltrials.gov on the [[wiki:autolit:search:execute|search]] module of the NK platform. Results from this search will automatically mark papers as [[:wiki.nested-knowledge.com:doku.php?id=wiki:autolit:screening:relatedreports|related reports]].
