21. content + tools + services Slide 21 of 26 http://ovidsp.ovid.com Basic Search Basic Search on OvidSP The Basic Search or in German „Freitextsuche“ is one of the OvidSP search options. Based on natural language processing (NLP) technologies, the search algorithem operates differently to the Advanced Search and other search options. Using the Basic Search option searches can be conducted using abbreviations, single terms, complete phrases or sentences. 4 ¾. How does Basic Search really work?

22. content + tools + services Slide 22 of 26 Step 1. Validation of search terms: When a query has been entered as a natural language search, OvidSP filters the terms of the query, eliminating irrelevant noise words and tightening word choices into valid search terms and phrases. Step 2. Expansion of search terms: OvidSP then utilizes proprietary lexicons to expand validated terms to include:  Word variations  Strong synonyms (e.g. alternernate names of drugs or diseases)  Acronyms  Alternative spellings (e.g. between British and American English) The lexicon mostly used used for OvidSP draws from the Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) Meta-thesaurus, medical dictionaries and thesauri, medical acronyms, drug and disease names, and standard American and British English dictionaries. OvidSP analyzes the original query to identify concepts (the nouns, noun phrases, and adjectives that shape the topics of the query), including them within an overall, expanded search strategy.
