organizations, and Thomson. The breath and depth of information on Dialog guarantees you will

find relevant information for almost any topic imaginable.

This Database Selection Guide is intended to

> help you identify Dialog databases that are relevant to a particular research topic

> illustrate how to use the time-saving, pre-selected subject groupings of databases known

as OneSearch categories

> introduce the Alias feature, a tool for creating your own, customized OneSearch categories

> provide step-by-step instructions for using the DIALINDEX finding tool in Dialog Command

Language (DialogClassic) and DialogLink 5

About Dialog

Dialog is the premier online retrieval service with the most comprehensive content collection

and most powerful search language available. From concept testing, to clinical trials, to product

launches, to patent protection, Dialog delivers accurate, relevant, trustworthy results with amazing

speed. Choose web, text or customized interfaces, or integrate just the content you need into your

own applications. Thomson Scientific has developed a comprehensive suite of online search tools for

Dialog to fit the needs of any researcher or information user, regardless of research focus, skill level

or preferred interface. Combining flexible pricing options and up-to-date Web Services tools, you

can also create your own content set and interface derived from the entire Dialog collection.

Integrate content with Web Tools for Dialog

Content can be integrated into portals and other tools using the Dialog Application Programming

Interface (Dialog API), an XML-based web service that enables Dialog’s extensive content collection

and renowned search engine to be integrated transparently into websites, enterprise portals,

corporate intranets and extranets, software applications and other interactive services. Dialog API

supports Web Services Description Language (WSDL) and Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP)

for integrating Dialog content into compatible platforms.

Applications created using the Dialog API can utilize the entire Dialog content set, enabling

the creation of comprehensive information solutions. And, since the Dialog API interfaces with

the powerful Dialog search engine, applications can be created for novice users and expert

searchers alike.

A database or file is a collection of information on a particular subject and contains a number of

separate documents all with the same structure. Each database on Dialog is identified by a number

(e.g., U.S. Patents Fulltext is “File 654”).The content in a database may be an online version of

something previously published in print, entirely new material or a compilation of information

appearing in many different publications. Databases are sometimes divided up into several file

segments. Each file segment, most commonly divided by dates of coverage, contains a different

piece of the database. An example is EMBASE®: File 72 covers 1993 to the present; File 73 covers

1974 to the present; File 772 covers 1947 to 1973. Available databases are described more fully

in the Dialog • DataStar Database Catalog.

Kinds of databases

Each unit in a database is referred to as a record or document. Exactly what makes up a record

differs from database to database. There are four general types of databases: Bibliographic,

Numeric, Directories and Complete text.

> Bibliographic databases. Each record in a bibliographic database is a reference or citation (many

also include a summary or an abstract) to a publication, magazine or journal article, news story,

patent, conference paper, etc. (e.g., MEDLINE® [File 154], Inspec® [File 2], Derwent World Patents

Index® [File 351]).

> Numeric databases. Each record in a numeric database is a table of statistical data, often

with text added (e.g., TableBase™ [File 93]).

> Directory databases. Each record gives factual information about companies, organizations,

products, chemical compounds, etc. (e.g., D&B—European Financial Records [File 523],

(TRADEMARKSCAN®—U.S. State [File 246], Merck Index OnlineSM [File 304]).

> Complete text databases. Each record includes the complete text of magazine articles,

newswire stories, patents, etc. (e.g., The San Jose Mercury News [File 634], U.S. Patents

Fulltext [File 654]).

In addition, some databases contain a mix of several different kinds of data, such as bibliographic

and fulltext records (e.g., Business & Industry™ [File 9] and Gale Group PROMT® [File 16]); graphics

(e.g, chemical structures in Beilstein Database—Facts [File 390], drawings in Derwent World Patents

Index® [File 351] ); and links to original source documents (e.g., in Frost & Sullivan Market

Engineering [File 767]).

Database updates

Databases are updated regularly, usually according to a fixed schedule, such as daily, weekly or

monthly. Some databases are updated annually, or whenever there is a new version produced.

Update frequencies are sometimes different from when articles appear in print versus online. A

database noted as having an Update Frequency of “Archive” contains backfiles covering a specific

time period. Current upates are added to a different file segment. For example, Dialog NewsRoom

(NE04) is listed as “Archive” with data from 2004. Other databases are listed as “Closed” in that

they contain a finite time period and are no longer updating.

Most databases update cumulatively, that is new records are added to the existing contents of

the database. News databases are common examples of cumulative updates. Updates to some

databases, however, replace some or all of the database contents. Company and other types

of directories are examples of replacement updates.

Page 9: Dialog Database Selection Guide - Rutgers University · 2008. 11. 12. · 3 DIALOG DATABASE SELECTION GUIDE More than 600 databases are available on the Dialog service. Each database

Dialog Databases

A few databases are reloaded on a regular basis. A database reload means that the entire contents

of the database are replaced with revised content. MEDLINE® is a database that is reloaded each

year to reflect revised medical terminology applied by the National Library of Medicine to all the

records in the database.

Database sources

Dialog databases come from many sources, including publishers, professional societies, research

centers, government agencies, and from sources within Thomson. Thomson Scientific licenses the

data from these providers for redistribution though its online services. The copyright usually belongs

to the provider, and each provider may impose some conditions for how their data is used. For this

reason, some data may be available only via an annual subscription (e.g., Elsevier’s EMBASE Classic

[File 772]) or may be available in certain geographic areas (e.g., the U.S. Government’s World News

Connection [File 985]).

Choosing the right database

The success of an online search depends in large part on the database(s) chosen. The following

Database Selection Checklist will help you in determining the appropriate database.

> What is the general subject? (e.g., business, science, environmental, etc.)

> What is the perspective of the question? (e.g., technical, consumer-oriented, academic, etc.)

> How much information is desirable? (e.g., overview, comprehensive, etc.)

> What type of database is needed? (e.g., directory, complete text, etc.)

Several tools are avilable to help you identify the best database(s) for your research, including this

Guide. In particular, DIALINDEX is highly recommended as the best online tool for discerning the

most relevant databases for a given topic. Additional online and print tools are available and are

described in the Dialog Command Language Pocket Guide.

Dialog Bluesheets

While many databases are focused on similar subjects, each database is unique. Differences may

result from types of publications covered, data included, indexing standards, the presence of a

thesaurus, or special formatting options. Details of each database are documented in its Bluesheet.

A Dialog Bluesheet contains a description of the database content, provider contact information,

terms of use, specific data available for searching, tagging, output formats, and other important

features specific to the database. Bluesheets are available in PDF format online at library.dialog.com,

or as searchable text online in Dialog File 415.

D I A L O G D A T A B A S E S E L E C T I O N G U I D E

Databases with related content are grouped into predefined subject categories and given a four-

to eight-character identifier. The identifier, or OneSearch category, may then be used in Dialog

Command Language searches as a shortcut to open all of the databases in the OneSearch category

with a single BEGIN command. Any search entered will execute in all of the databases in the

category. The OneSearch categories may also be used with the DIALINDEX finding tool. See

the DIALINDEX section for more details.

The list below includes most of the available OneSearch categories. You are not limited to these

categories: use SET ALIAS to create your own database groups. SET ALIAS is explained and

illustrated on page 12.

Dialog OneSearch Categories

The titles or names of Dialog OneSearch categories appear below in alphabetical order followed by

its OneSearch category identifier or mnemonic. Use the identifier as a shortcut rather than individual

file numbers. Variant names for the same category are included in the list. The list of databases

included in OneSearch Categories may be found in the explanded list of Categories beginning

on page 23.

Dialog OneSearch: Database Subject Categories

Create your own Dialog OneSearch Category with Alias

If you have identified a set of databases that meet your needs, you can define your OneSearch

category by creating an Alias. The Alias must be a single alphanumeric word, up to 15 characters

in length. You may then save your new Category to your account profile in order to make it a

permanent part of your Dialog account. The methods for creating an Alias in Dialog Command

Language (DialogWeb—Command, DialogClassic Web) and DialogLink 5 are illustrated below.

In the examples, a new OneSearch category name — an Alias — is created for the biomedical

databases MEDLINE®, EMBASE®, BIOSIS® and SciSearch®. The database numbers are 154, 73, 5,

434, respectively, and “meddbs” is the name assigned to the Alias.

DialogLink 5: Searcher Preferences - Alias

To Create an Alias in DialogLink 5 and save it to your account

Dialog Command Language: SET ALIAS Command

If using the DialogClassic Web or DialogWeb—Command interface, the command format

is as follows:

Command Alias File Numbers

set alias meddbs 154,73,5,434

When connected to the Dialog service, enter:

?set alias meddbs 154,73,5,434

[system response] meddbs is set On as an alias for 154,73,5,434

To use all the databases in a search, enter:

?begin meddbs

From the menu bar,click Configuration >

Settings. On the Searchers,Projects and Clients screen, clickthe user ID where you want to setthe Alias and click Edit underSearcher.

DIALINDEX (File 411) is a unique database that contains in a single file the indexing for most of

the databases on Dialog. By entering a search query in DIALINDEX, the Dialog system will report

how many matching records or “hits” are found, and in which databases. DIALINDEX is a tool for

determining which databases have relevant content based on your search query. Using DIALINDEX

before conducting a database search you can

> be certain which databases have relevant content

> choose only the database(s) that have the most coverage for your topic

> avoid wasted time searching irrelevant databases

> scan the Dialog collection when the topic is obscure or does not fit into a well-defined

subject area

> refine your search strategy by testing and comparing the number of hits

When you’re not sure which database(s) might have the most data on your topic, use DIALINDEX

as the first step in your online research. You can scan several databases, a OneSearch category of

databases, or create your own category using the Alias feature, or use a “Supercategory” unique

to DIALINDEX. An example of a Supercategory is ALL which is used to scan every database on the

Dialog service. Available Supercategories are listed on page 22.

It is important to note that DIALINDEX does not actually retrieve the records resulting from the

search. You must BEGIN the desired databases to retrieve and view the results.

Once you have identified the relevant database(s), use OneSearch to conduct a comprehensive

search in those files. In OneSearch you can search up to 60 databases, browse the indexes using

the EXPAND command, display records, or use any of the available system features, such as

Duplicate Detection and RANK. For more information on using OneSearch or DIALINDEX, refer

to the Dialog Pocket Guide, online at support.dialog.com/searchaids/dialog/pocketguide.

Step-by-step examples of complete search sessions using DIALINDEX appear below. The first

example illustrates DIALINDEX using Dialog Command Language (DialogWeb—Command,

DialogClassic Web). The second example illustrates DIALINDEX on DialogLink 5.

Cystic fibrosis is caused by a defective gene encoding a proteincalled the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), andis characterised by chronic lung infection resulting in inflammation andprogressive lung damage that results in a reduced life expectancy.

. . . .Main results

Three randomised controlled trials met the inclusion criteria forthis review, involving a total of 155 participants. Thirteen studies wereexcluded. The included studies differed in terms of CFTR gene replacementagent and study design, which limited the meta-analysis.

Authors' conclusions

There is currently no evidence to support the use of CFTR gene trans-fer reagents as a treatment for lung disease in people with cystic fibro-sis. Future studies need to investigate clinically important outcome meas-ures.
