主权项 1. A computer-implemented method, comprising: receiving, by a computing device, a search query that includes one or more search query terms; determining a set of search results in response to the received search query; identifying a name of an entity among the one or more search query terms; determining that data stored in an entity information repository corresponds to the entity whose name is identified among the one or more search query terms; identifying, using the data stored in the entity information repository that corresponds to the entity whose name is identified among the one or more search query terms, an attribute for the entity; determining, using the set of search results, a value of the attribute for the entity, the value of the attribute identified in at least a particular search result in the set of search results; generating, in response to determining the value of the attribute for the entity, instructions for presentation of the set of search results in a user interface that includes, for the particular search result, an emphasis of the value of the attribute; and providing the instructions to a user device to cause the user device to present the user interface.
