02:08 AMXYZ15I get the following results but when I search for XYZ15 clinical, I only get the first result? I'm searching the same field, the only thing is this additional keyword that also appears in the text. I can't make sense of it at all

04:15 AMXYZ15 that word is treated as prefix, but in XYZ15 clinical the word clinical is treated as prefix. So this can change the results that are fetched. Can you try with prefix: false just to see what happens to both the queries?Yuhong
