Abstract
AbstractThis study seeks to develop and test the recall of two search hedges for One Health articles. CAB Abstracts was searched, and the first 100 relevance-ranked results were downloaded. The most frequent co-occurrences of CAB descriptors were used to develop a hedge. A second hedge was developed using the descriptors and related natural language keywords. The natural language hedge had better recall (100% and 95%, respectively) than the co-occurrence hedge (24% and 86%, respectively). When searching a broad-based topic area like One Health, there is a need for expansive language to incorporate multiple expressions of a concept.Keywords: CAB abstracts descriptorsOne Healthsearch filterssearch hedges Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the authors.
