The ATLA CD-ROM is a great place to begin searching for current
bibliography. I don't recall the exact search string, and I'm not sure of
the transliteration--the search program is very idiosyncratic, I think it's
proprietary to the ATLA--but you would browse the subject index under "Greek
terms--AMJN", and the program will produce a list of everything written over
the last few decades that has extensive enough a discussion of AMHN to be
indexed.
I don't know how many libraries have this tool. I use the heck out of the
one at Baylor, and I've seen it at Dallas Theological Seminary, Southwestern
Baptist, etc. If you don't have access to one, perhaps you can find someone
who does who is willing to do the legwork for you.
