Staff reporter(wp/bbc):::
The parents of missing Libby Squire have urged their daughter to "get in touch" in an emotional appeal to her.
Hundreds of people have been involved in a four-day search to find the 21-year-old, who was last seen in Hull on Thursday.
Her mother Lisa Squire said: "Libby, my darling pie, we just want to know that you are safe."
Police have ruled out from their inquiry three items found near Beverley Road, where she was last seen.
In a video appeal tweeted by Humberside Police, Mrs Squire urged her daughter to "get in touch with us any way you can".
"The whole family is missing you, especially me and your dad, your sisters and brother," she said.
"I miss you so much, it is breaking my heart not knowing where you are. I love you more."
Miss Squire was last seen getting into a taxi outside the Welly Club music venue in Beverley Road at about 23:00 GMT. She is believed to have been dropped off a short while later, close to where she lived in Wellesley Avenue.
She was then helped by another motorist who pulled over after seeing her sitting on a bench in the street.
He subsequently made contact with police and "really helped out" with the search, officers said.
Miss Squire, from High Wycombe in Buckinghamshire, was last spotted on CCTV in Beverley Road, near the junction with Haworth Street, some 45 minutes later.
A screwdriver, hammer and lip gloss were retrieved by forensic officers close to the spot where she was last seen.
But Humberside Police said they were not "connected with the inquiry into her disappearance" and the items were "part of another investigation".
Appealing to the public earlier, her father Russell Squire said "we just want Libby home".
He added: "Libby is our kind, thoughtful, beautiful girl who is loved by so many people.
"As you can appreciate this is a very difficult time for us both."
Mr Squire thanked "everyone for their help and support" before asking anyone with information to contact the force.
Officers have been searching in drains and wheelie bins along the street, while detectives conducted door-to-door inquiries.
Nearby, officers from the police marine unit travelled along a length of the frozen Beverley and Barmston Drain in inflatable rafts, breaking the ice and searching the water.
About 200 students were also involved in a search of the university premises.
The family previously said Miss Squire's disappearance was "very out of character" and they were "broken without her".
Police are keen to speak to anyone who was on Haworth Street between 23:30 and 00:30 on the night she disappeared.
Miss Squire, who is 5ft 7in tall and has long dark brown hair, had been wearing a black leather jacket, black long-sleeved top and a black denim skirt with lace.
The University of Hull has said it was "deeply concerned" about the missing student and was working closely with police.
