Related Articles (continued)

Let's see what happens if we initiate a query for wrestling and crash diets. [Show Me]

Only one citation was found. Note that in the AbstractPlus display, the first five (most relevant) articles appear to the right of the abstract. [Show Me] If we click on See all Related Articles, PubMed will display the full list of citations that are related to the original citation. [Show Me]

The Related Articles citations display is in rank order from most to least relevant. The citation you linked from is displayed first.

You can refine the Related Articles retrieval set by selecting History from the Features Bar, then using the search statement number in combination with another concept.

Demonstration
Click the Steps to run the demonstration.

To refine the Related Articles retrieval set:

  • Step 1: Click on History to find the search # for the results of the Related Articles link. Notice that this query is shown as "Related Articles for PubMed (Select [PubMed Unique Identifier Number])."
  • Step 2: Type the search # in the query box or click on the search number to add the search to the search box.
  • Step 3: Click on Limits.
  • Step 4: Select English from the Languages menu and click Go.

Note: Refining your Related Articles retrieval set will remove the ranking by relevancy.
