The difference between structured abstract and unstructured abstract

Difference:

Structured abstracts are not only rich in information and high in quality, but also complete in structure, distinct in levels, clear in items, eye-catching and standardized in arrangement, which is beneficial to reading and retrieval.

Unstructured abstracts have little information, low information quality and incomplete structure.

The following is an introduction to the abstract:

Also known as summary and content summary, it means to extract or extract the main points. It is a short article, which concisely and accurately describes the important contents of the literature, without comments or supplementary explanations.

Its basic elements include research objectives, methods, results and conclusions. Specifically, it is the main object and scope of research work, the means and methods adopted, the achievements and important conclusions obtained, and sometimes other important information with intelligence value.

An application for a patent for invention or utility model shall specify the summary of the disclosure, that is, the name of the invention or utility model, its technical field, technical problems to be solved, main technical features and uses. The written part generally does not exceed 300 words, but the specific number of words needs to be determined according to the content of the article, and it can exceed 300 words when necessary.
