Full-text search across the World Health Organization Global Health Observatory (WHO GHO) indicator catalog. The query string is forwarded to OData contains(IndicatorName, q) on upstream and matched case-sensitively. Each hit is returned with its stable indicator code, English-language name, and a Sugra-derived theme_hint based on the code-prefix taxonomy.
