Managing Results

As you browse and gather relevant citations you will want to:

  • View the full display of a PubMed record, or change Display settings
  • Save citations to a Destination (the Clipboard is PubMed's "shopping cart") or Email, save to File, etc.
  • Save search strategies for re-running later
