Write commentsWhile this news may seem to be good at first sight, the truth is that the Colombian Database is not a reliable source of information, at least patently speaking. Priority numbers and dates were updated, until not long ago, in a disorderly manner; And searches by keywords can only be done in the title and abstract, which needless to say, is simply not enough. On the other hand, the information is only updated -to some extent- as from 1992.
