Database Description

EMBASE®, a bibliographic database in the area of biomedicine, is the most current biomedical database available today. Articles appear in the database, on average, within two weeks of receipt of the original journal. Each record contains the full bibliographic citation, indexing terms, and other information about the original article; 80% of all citations in EMBASE include author-written abstracts.

About 580,000 abstracts and citations are added annually and each record is classified and indexed by medical research specialists who assign terms in accordance with EMTREE. EMTREE is Elsevier's Life Science thesaurus consisting of more than 50,000 terms and nearly 210,000 synonyms.
