The publisher offers options for those who wish to search in Chinese, Spanish, or French.EMBASE is available through OVID or as a stand-alone subscription database. EMBASE includes additional journals not accessed by MEDLINE or OLDMEDLINE and retrieves references for conference abstracts.
Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Published in Ching-Yu Cheng, Tien Yin Wong, Ophthalmic Epidemiology, 2022
Gianni Virgili, Jennifer Evans, Tianjing Li
Systematic review authors generally search multiple electronic databases, usually starting with MEDLINE. The strategy is then adapted at least to EMBASE, but content-specific databases may be needed, such as PSYCHINFO.

Embase contains more than 31 million indexed records and over 8,500 currently indexed peer-reviewed journals. Embase is a highly versatile, multi-purpose, and up-to-date database covering the most important international biomedical literature from 1947 to the present day (http://www.embase.com/info/what-embase).

The review was conducted according to protocols delineated in the scoping review extension of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA-ScR) (Tricco et al., 2018). The search protocol was not registered before conducting the search. We have included the full search strings for each database in Table 1 to increase transparency of our methods. The research team partnered with University of Washington librarian, Lynly Beard, to conduct a search of English-language literature on December 15th, 2022 using three databases: PubMed, Embase, and PsycINFO. PubMed is a free search engine that broadly includes biomedical and life sciences literature. Embase covers an international collection of biomedical and clinical services research. PsycINFO includes academic and practice research in behavioral health disciplines. The team reasoned that these three databases would identify relevant literature published domestically and internationally in biomedical and behavioral health journals, including open access sources.

We performed a comprehensive literature search between December 2019 and February 2020 using three electronic databases: PubMed, ProQuest, and Embase Scopus databases. We searched again in September 2020 to obtain more recent publications. We considered all literature from the databases until September 2020. PubMed covers the area of medicine, nursing, health care systems, preclinical sciences, and biomedical and life sciences. ProQuest covers the area of public health information and research. Embase covers a wide range of core and niche scientific, medical, and healthcare disciplines. Keywords such as ‘asthma’, ‘wheeze’, ‘machine learning’, ‘human’, ‘cluster’, ‘hierarchical’, ‘artificial intelligence’, ‘naive Bayes’, ‘k nearest neighbor’, ‘k means clustering’, ‘decision tree’, ‘support vector machine’, ‘principal component analysis’, ‘hidden Markov model’, ‘Bayesian network’, ‘random forest’, ‘gradient boosting model’, ‘regression’, ‘artificial neural network’, and ‘deep learning’ were used to search for literature in all three databases. All citations were imported into Mendeley reference manager to create a single Research Information Systems (RIS) file. The RIS file was then imported into the Web-based systematic review software DistillerSR (Evidence Partners, Ottawa, ON) to remove duplicates and help screen titles and abstracts.
A systemic review and meta-analysis on the efficacy and safety of ferumoxytol for anemia in chronic kidney disease patients
Published in Renal Failure, 2022

Articles published between January 1950 to October 2020 in six academic databases were searched (MEDLINE, CENTRAL, EMBASE, PubMed, Web of sciences, and Scopus). A sample search strategy for the EMBASE database has been provided in Supplementary file. Furthermore, the reference/bibliography sections of included studies were screened manually to identify additional relevant studies. The screening procedure adhered to the following inclusion criteria:Studies must have evaluated hemoglobin levels, ferritin levels (i.e., measures the level of protein ferritin that stores iron in the cells), and treatment related TEAEs incidence in chronic kidney disease patients receiving ferumoxytol.Studies must involve human subjects.Studies must be either randomized controlled trials, quasi-randomized controlled trials, controlled clinical trials, prospective observational trials with control groups, or retrospective trials.Studies must have been published in peer-reviewed academic journals or as part of scientific conference proceedings.Studies must have been published in the English language.
