New Search Syntax: Structured Abstracts Now Searchable in PubMed

Filed by on August 1, 2012

From the PubMed Technical Bulletin:

A new PubMed search feature is now available that allows a search for structured abstracts in PubMed.

In a PubMed search box, type:

hasstructuredabstract

This search retrieves over two million citations. (Note: This search does not include citations with the status of publisher, i.e., publisher [sb].)

This structured abstract retrieval set is a subset of this search:

hasabstract
