The ‘Query Builder’ (formerly Search Form), where users can build a search query, is by default collapsed on first opening the Emtree Tool page. But it may be expanded by clicking on the + sign or selecting ‘Add to Query Builder’, once you have selected a term in Emtree.

The Query Builder at the top of the Emtree Tool screen allows you to add multiple Emtree terms and commands – such as Boolean operators (AND, OR, NOT, NEAR or NEXT), individual field labels, limits and subheadings – using command-line search syntax.

Click 'Take this query to Advanced Search' to choose more options and limits available on the Advanced Search page, such as specific publication years, human/animal subject, priority journals, English or other languages, evidence-based medicine headings, age groups, etc.

Or, click the Search button to view the retrieved records immediately in the Session History box..
