EMBASE update

The Embase (EMED) Database is being reloaded to implement the 2024.01 Thesaurus Tool.
We expect it to be live on Monday July 15, 2024. Alerts will be run on the weekend of July 13, 2024, prior to the reload.

Changes in the new thesaurus
Release notes

3 Deleted Fields:

  • arXiv Identifier (AV)
  • Related Item Information (RI)
  • Grant Information (GI)

Elsevier, the publisher of Embase, is going to change the data feed for Embase later this year. In the new feed, the “Grant Information” (GI) and “Related Item Information” (RI) data will no longer be available. Therefore the GI/RI field-sets will no longer display with the upcoming reload and supporting details will also be removed from the Ovid Embase database guide.
