Getting started with Dimensions L&C

In this video learn how to run semantic search in Dimensions L&C to get a list of precise and comprehensive results. We will also explore the ontological tree within Dimensions L&C, which contains over 40 million concepts related to life sciences and chemistry, and finally we will see a quick overview of the analytical and search tools Dimensions L&C has to offer.

Generate insights quicker using Co-occurrence Analysis

In this video learn how to run a Co-occurrence Analysis in Dimensions L&C, a powerful tool which enables you to generate insights from millions of scientific documents within seconds. We will explore general and specific use cases for this function to enable you to get the most out of Dimensions L&C.

Understand disease mechanisms

In this video learn how to use “co-occurrence analysis” in Dimensions L&C to get a better understanding of disease mechanisms. We will generate insights from hundreds of millions of scientific documents by correlating a disease with semantic concepts – such as signalling pathways, genes & proteins and pathophysiological processes – to quickly generate hypotheses on disease mechanisms, which is an important first step in drug target identification and the drug development process in general.

Understand drug candidate mechanisms of action

In this video learn how to use “chemistry search” to discover chemical compounds similar to your drug candidate or containing a specific chemical substructure of your interest. We will run a comprehensive search to identify documents, such as patents, publications, grants and clinical trials, that mention relevant compounds and apply a powerful semantic concepts extraction analysis to generate insights on the compounds’ mechanisms of action and therapeutic applications.

Clarify the mechanism of action

To select the best therapeutic application for repositioning a known drug or avoid undesirable adverse events for novel compounds, it is critical to have a clear understanding how the drug or compound works.  

To uncover these insights, you need to find and analyze all information available on a drug/compound or those similar to it. The powerful semantic search of Dimensions L&C allows you to search through 40 million concepts, including new compounds, approved drugs, genes, and proteins alongside chemistry search and co-occurrence analysis.  This enables you to identify more relevant documents and gain deeper insights about drug and compound connections to proteins, disease, signalling pathways, pathophysiology, and toxicities.

Analyze disease mechanisms

Understanding target and disease biology is crucial for success when bringing a new drug to market. However, the data supporting this understanding is spread across hundreds of thousands and millions of scientific documents, including publications, patents, grants, and clinical trials.  Dimensions L&C provides a powerful semantic search with up to 40 million concepts that incorporate genes,  proteins and diseases, derived from hundreds of millions of scientific documents, together with co-occurrence analysis.

This enables you to quickly discover more relevant documents and gain deeper insights regarding disease mechanisms and the connections between diseases, proteins, signalling pathways, and biological processes in a real-time.

Identify drug targets

Identification of a “right” drug target is a critical step in drug development that helps to avoid later stage failures of drug candidates in clinical trials. To make an evidence-based decision on drug targets, a compilation and analysis of multiple scientific documents are required.

Dimensions L&C provides a powerful semantic search of up to 40 million concepts, including genes & proteins, diseases and corporate information, together with co-occurrence analysis. This enables you to rapidly discover more relevant documents and gain deeper insights as to potential drug targets and their connections to diseases, drugs, biological and pathological processes, and commercial potential in a real time.

Navigating Networks Of Oncology Biomarkers 

Using large-scale analytics of published literature, biomarkers across six cancer types were successfully characterized in terms of their emergence in the published literature and the context in which they are described.

This novel approach could help identify biomarkers and biomarker panels, which may be otherwise missed through traditional search methods, for expert review and exploration in a clinical setting.

Landscape analysis 

Research is continually evolving and dynamics within and between fields change constantly. Landscape assessments ensure you understand the lay of the land and are prepared to adapt to change. Our analysts use Dimensions to help you:

• Identify major global research areas.
• Understand how scientific fields are changing. 
• Assess emerging trends within a specific field of study. 
• Recognize the experts in these fields.

Enhancing your Gap Analysis with Machine Enhanced Literature Retrieval

Dimensions data can be used to enhance your literature gap analysis. Dimensions is particularly suitable for performing literature gap analyses on a large scale, combining standard abstract searches with high precision full-text queries and subsequent aggregation. This allows creating heat maps on numbers of publications for combinations of terms, e.g., drugs versus adverse events, with the option to directly view the set of publications for a particular combination. Such an approach takes minutes to run and can be repeated to track changes over time.

Real word databases identification 

While real-world databases are of increasing interest to researchers, there is no comprehensive dataset listing all real-world databases. We have created an algorithm which finds publications presenting real-world databases:

• Several search methods were applied to select articles which present research using real world databases
• Publications were identified which were frequently cited by the above articles, to arrive at the initial publications announcing real world databases
• With this approach the number of known real world databases could be doubled
