Citation Sensor

The Citation Sensor is a feature that assists searchers looking for a specific article.

  • It looks for combinations of search terms that are characteristic of citation searching, e.g., volume/issue numbers, author names, journal titles, publication dates.
  • Whenever possible the Citation Sensor matches the search with citations in PubMed.
  • If your search invokes the Citation Sensor, you will see a yellow area above the default retrieval with links to one or more citations for your consideration:[Show Me]

  • To view additional Citation Sensor matches, click on the link for the number of articles: [Show Me]
