Although there is no guarantee that searching a wider range of databases increases the percentage of relevant papers identified, failing to consider the breadth and geographical representativeness of the databases selected raises concerns about evidence that could have been missed.
All of these products support a wide range of database vendors, including DB2 UDB, DB2 zOS, Informix Data Server (IDS), Oracle, SQL Server, and many others through ODBC support.
Not Only SQL (NoSQL) databases provide a comprehensive solution for a wide range of database issues, characterized by basically available, soft state, eventually consistent (BASE) in lieu of relational models of atomicity, consistency, isolation, and durability (ACID) [1].
Like its counterparts across the country, my Seattle Public Library offers Net access to an increasingly wide range of databases that don't exist on the open Web and, because they reside behind a fee-based gate, don't get indexed by the likes of Google (exception:the academic and scientific works uncovered by the new Google Scholar project).
A wide range of databases was used to maximise the number of articles captured.
This review identified a large number of potential studies obtained from literature searches in a wide range of databases.
By searching a wide range of databases up to early 2013, my review identified 90 studies, of which only 394343%) were identified in previous reviews.
To characterize the Vps25 family, we used Basic Local Alignment Search Tool BLASTT) and keyword searches of a wide range of databases to identify sequences homologous to yeast and human Vps25.
Second, we collected human metabolites from a wide range of databases, including KEGG [ 2], HMDB [ 17], Reactome [ 3], MSEA [ 9], and SMPDB [ 23].
Our search strategy was not very specific -proportion of retrieved studies that were relevant-, buthehe search terms and the wide range of databases used probably have enabled high levels of sensitivity to retrieve relevant articles.
