PubMed / Search biomedical papers

Search PubMed's 37+ million biomedical citations with full PubMed query syntax (field tags like [ti], [au], [mh], [dp], boolean AND OR NOT). Returns the total count and a list of PubMed ids (PMIDs) plus how PubMed translated the query. Pass the ids to pubmed-summary for titles, authors and journals, or to pubmed-abstract for abstracts. Up to 100 ids per call. A malformed or empty query fails at $0. Free. Courtesy of the U.S. National Library of Medicine (PubMed). Abstracts may be under the publisher's copyright: quote them, do not republish them in bulk. NLM does not endorse looot.
