OBJECTIVE: PubMed's provision of MEDLINE and other National Library of Medicine (NLM) resources has made it one of the most widely accessible biomedical resources globally. The growth of PubMed Central (PMC) and public access mandates have affected PubMed's composition. The authors tested recent claims that content in…

LitSense 2.0 (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/research/litsense2/) is an advanced biomedical search system enhanced with dense vector semantic retrieval, designed for accessing literature on sentence and paragraph levels. It provides unified access to 38 million PubMed abstracts and 6.6 million full-length articles in the…

The auditory system consists of the ear located in the periphery, in which a conversion of the sound into an electrical signal takes place, and neurons, which perform central processing based on action potentials. The most important anatomical and functional features of the auditory system are explained. For this…

Medication doses, one of the determining factors in medication safety and effectiveness, are present in the literature, but only in free-text form. We set out to determine if the systems developed for extracting drug prescription information from clinical text would yield comparable results on scientific literature and…

BACKGROUND: The application of nanotechnology in medicine encompasses an interdisciplinary field of sciences for the diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of medical conditions. This study aims to systematically review and summarize the advances of nanotechnology applicable to neurosurgery. METHODS: We performed a PubM…

Involvement of the central nervous system (CNS) in multiple myeloma (MM) is very uncommon; it has been observed in approximately 1% of the MM patients. This review summarizes the clinical and laboratory characteristics and treatment modalities of 109 patients with CNS myelomatosis (CNS MM) reported in the literature. C…

BACKGROUND: Peripherally inserted central catheters (PICC) are being increasingly used in critical care setting. However, PICCs are associated with a number of complications, particularly upper extremity venous thrombosis (UEVT), leading to post-thrombotic syndrome, pulmonary embolism and increased risk of catheter-rel…

Previous reviews and clinical guidelines have identified 10-20 genetic syndromes associated with diabetes, but no systematic review has been conducted to date. We provide the first comprehensive catalog for syndromes with diabetes mellitus. We conducted a systematic review of MEDLINE, Embase, CENTRAL, PubMed, OMIM, and…

BACKGROUND: Linking registered clinical trials with their published results continues to be a challenge. A variety of natural language processing (NLP)-based and machine learning-based models have been developed to assist users in identifying these connections. To date, however, no system has attempted to detect mentio…

Erroneous conversion of gene names into other dates and other data types has been a frustration for computational biologists for years. We hypothesized that such errors in supplementary files might diminish after a report in 2016 highlighting the extent of the problem. To assess this, we performed a scan of supplementa…

Clinical Scenario: Plantar heel pain is a common condition frequently associated with persistent symptoms and functional limitations affecting both the athletic and nonathletic populations. Common interventions target impairments at the foot and ankle and local drivers of symptoms. If symptoms are predominantly perpetu…

This systematic review aimed to document and describe how and when to assess patients' expectancies to acupuncture and the relationship between patients' expectancies and clinical effects.Three English databases, including PubMed, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and EMBASE, and four Chinese databases, i…

SUMMARY: Figures in biomedical articles present visual evidence for research facts and help readers understand the article better. However, when figures are taken out of context, it is difficult to understand their content. We developed a summarization algorithm to summarize the content of figures and used it in our fi…

Open biomedical repositories, such as PubMed Central (PMC), are a means to make research discoverable and permanently accessible. Assessing the potential interest of key stakeholders in an Australasia PubMed Central was the objective of this research. The investigation is novel, assisting in the development of open sci…

OBJECTIVES: To examine the frequency of central nervous system (CNS) disease in primary Sjogrens syndrome (pSS) and indicate ways in which cerebral magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may help determine the significance of CNS involvement. METHODS: The current review was based on a Medline (Pubmed) literature search thro…

BACKGROUND: The scientific literature contains millions of microbial gene identifiers within the full text and tables, but these annotations rarely get incorporated into public sequence databases. We propose to utilize the Open Access (OA) subset of PubMed Central (PMC) as a gene annotation database and have developed…

Odontogenic lesions have been described in several syndromes. Despite multiple reports of ameloblastoma's association with various syndromes, it has not been added to the diagnostic criteria for any syndrome. Thus, the aim of this systematic review was gathering such cases' data. An electronic search in PubMed Central'…

In the "Policy on enhancing public access to archived publications resulting from NIH-funded research," the NIH requests that all publications resulting from primary research supported by NIH grants be deposited in PubMed Central (PMC), the online repository of the National Library of Medicine. The NIH requests that al…
