New in Embase – Simplify your searches using MULTIPLE concatenated proximity operators (NEAR, NEXT)
With the latest Embase release, you can now use combinations of MULTIPLE proximity operators (NEAR, NEXT) in a single search query without separating the searches using AND or OR, allowing for more precise searching and simplified search strategies.
Proximity operators let you search for words or phrases at any specified distance from each other. NEAR/n requests terms that are within 'n' words of each other in either direction, while NEXT/n requests terms that are within 'n' words of each other in the order specified. For example:
cancer* NEXT/4 cell* NEXT/6 therapy retrieves:
"Interplay between ROS and autophagy in cancer cells, from tumor initiation to cancer therapy"
blood NEXT/2 cardio* NEAR/5 system* retrieves:
"…and vegetative nervous system, disorders of blood coagulation, cardio haemodynamics…"
pneumonia NEXT/2 outcome* NEXT/2 research NEXT/2 team* retrieves:
"pneumonia severity index ≥91, Pneumonia Patient Outcomes Research Team score IV-V or bacteraemic pneumonia…"
(clinical NEXT/2 (application* OR trial) NEXT/10 biomarker* NEXT/10 (treatment OR disease)):ab,ti retrieves:
"studies suggest that MPs may have clinical applications including utility as biomarkers, use in improving cardiovascular disease risk prediction"
