cit2pmid - find candidate NCBI PubMed identifiers for a citation
SYNOPSIS
cit2pmid [-debug] [-strict] [-remote|-eutils|-local|-exact|-verify] [-asn file|-cit file] [-title|-TITL str] [-author|-FAUT|-LAUT str] [-journal|-JOUR str] [-year|-YEAR|-PDAT str] [-volume|-VOL str] [-issue|-ISS str] [-page[s]|-PAGE str]
DESCRIPTION
cit2pmid tries to identify NCBI PubMed identifiers corresponding to a supplied citation. Some modes search an indexed local NCBI PubMed archive (as prepared by index-pubmed(1)).
OPTIONS
-debug |
Trace some aspects of execution. |
-strict
Perform stricter matching (only in -local mode, at least for now).
-remote
Use nquire -citmatch remote service (default).
-eutils
Use esearch remote service.
-local |
Use transmute -r2p (ref2pmid) for relaxed search with local archive. | ||
-exact |
Use phrase-search for strict matching with local archive. |
-verify
Query against local archive with strict (but not -exact) matching then confirm positive candidates via citmatch.
-asn file
Read NCBI Pub ASN.1 from file (- for standard input). Must be the only query specification.
-cit file
Read CITATION XML from file (- for standard input). Must be the only query specification.
-title|-TITL str
Article title; may need other fields to disambiguate, especially if incomplete.
-author str
Author name (last name, optionally followed by initials); may appear twice, for first and last authors. (Otherwise, taken to be first author only.)
-FAUT str
Explicitly name first author.
-LAUT str
Explicitly name last author.
-journal|-JOUR str
Journal name.
-year|-YEAR|-PDAT str
Publication year.
-volume|-VOL str
Journal volume.
-issue|-ISS str
Journal issue.
-page[s]|-PAGE str
Journal page, or hyphenated range.
ENVIRONMENT
EDIRECT_PUBMED_MASTER
Local archive directory to use. Expected to hold an absolute path; mandatory for any mode besides -remote and -eutils.
