A good complementary method to find relevant literature is to start from one good publication. It could be that you have found one relevant paper but are having trouble finding much else. Starting with this publication, you can either look in the reference list to look at the cited publications, or use a database that register citations to find out which newer publications have cited your chosen publication.
Reviews in particular are useful to start from since they have a long reference list but are also often cited a lot.
