One box for the whole site: the journal published between 2012 and 2015 in English, and the clinical pages written in Italian. The editorial platform used to keep four separate indexes — authors, title, full text, supplementary files — and asked you to choose one before typing. That choice is gone, and a query now runs across all of them at once.
What is in the index
- Eight tables of contents, with every article title, its authors and its page range.
- The two papers reproduced here in full, abstract and reference list included.
- The title index and the author index, which between them hold everything the journal published.
- The Italian half of the site: the drug sheets of the farmacopea and the condition pages, with their dosages, interactions and prices.
How the search behaves
- Part of a word
- : works. urolog brings back urologist, urologica and urologici in the same list.
- Two or more words
- : all of them have to appear on the page. stone bladder returns only the pages carrying both.
- Quotation marks
- : hold a phrase together. "urinary stone" looks for the two words side by side.
- OR, NOT, brackets, asterisks
- : are read as ordinary characters, not as operators. The syntax the old platform accepted no longer applies here.
- Capital letters
- : make no difference. Accents do: perché and più have to be typed as they are spelled, or the word is not found.
When the indexes beat the search box
A search needs a word you already have. To see the whole picture instead, walk the journal by issue, by author or by title; the site map puts every page of the site on one screen.
If nothing comes back
Three things explain most empty results. The query is too long — a surname or a single keyword works where a full title does not. The spelling of a name differs from the one printed in the issue, where accents and double surnames follow each author's own usage. Or the word lives in the other half of the site: the journal is in English, the clinical pages are in Italian, and nothing is translated between the two. The name of a molecule is the safest bridge, because sildenafil, tadalafil and aciclovir are spelled the same in both.
