Looking beyond article abstracts

Full-text literature has been shown to provide richer data for a more complete research picture. If your data pipeline pulls only from abstracts, you will miss co-occurrences that only appear in the full text. It can often take years for co-occurrences to appear in the abstracts of other articles, which means you could be missin­g crucial insights in your data.

The scientific data making a real-world impact

Using data from open-source scientific literature for your R&D or AI projects can lead to gaps in your data pipeline and hamper these projects during development. In most industries, the majority of relevant scientific literature is not open source or available through free channels. This includes some of the most frequently cited scientific research being published today.

What percentage of full-text scientific literature is not open-source in your industry?*

  • Pharmaceuticals: 63%

  • Medical Devices: 69%

  • Chemicals and Materials: 77%

  • Energy and Natural Resources: 74%

*Source: Scopus. These numbers represent relevant published scientific literature between 2017-2021.
