Results Screen
Once you enter
search terms and click Go or press the Enter key,
PubMed will automatically:
- Run the search.
- Retrieve
and display citations.
- Provide an
option to Save Search.
Now let's take
a quick look at how PubMed displays the results of the search:
- The retrieved
citations are displayed in the Summary format. This
includes the author, title, and source information. [Show Me]
Note: Retrieval of a single citation is displayed in AbstractPlus format, or the format chosen in your My NCBI User Preferences.
- Results are displayed in batches of 20. [Show Me]
- The
total number of citations retrieved by the search will appear
in an "All" tab. [Show Me]
- The total
number of citations from search results that have been assigned
the Publication Type, Review will appear in the Review tab.[Show
Me]
- The tool
symbol (hammer and wrench) to the right of the filter tabs
links you to My NCBI where users who are signed in can add
or modify their Filter selections. See
My NCBI section for
further information. [Show
Me]
This is how PubMed initially displays the
retrieval. You can modify the display in various ways, using
selections from the Action Bar. Click Next to learn about the display formats.
