  • compare_labelsread-only

    Compare US FDA Prescribing Information vs UK/EU SmPC for a drug side-by-side. Maps equivalent sections (e.g., US Indications ↔ UK 4.1) and returns paired content.

  • find_relatedread-only

    Find related articles for a given PubMed article. Returns similar papers ranked by relevance score using PubMed's neighbor algorithm.

  • format_citationread-only

    Format a citation for a PubMed article in APA, Vancouver, Harvard, or BibTeX style.

  • get_abstractread-only

    Get the full structured abstract and metadata for a PubMed article. Returns abstract sections (background, methods, results, conclusions), keywords, MeSH terms, and PMC ID.

  • get_full_textread-only

    Get the full text of an open-access article from PubMed Central. Returns article sections, figure/table captions, and reference count. Only works for articles available in PMC.

  • get_smpcread-only

    Get UK/EU Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC) for a drug from eMC (medicines.org.uk). Returns structured labelling sections.

  • search_europepmcread-only

    Search Europe PMC — a broader biomedical corpus than PubMed that also indexes preprints (bioRxiv, medRxiv), patents, and agricultural/biomedical databases. Unlike search_pubmed, each result includes an abstract snippet, citation count, open-access status, and whether a preprint. Use preprintsOnly to surface work ahead of formal publication.

  • search_pubmedread-only

    Search PubMed for biomedical literature. Returns article summaries with PMIDs, titles, authors, journals, and DOIs.

  • search_trialsread-only

    Search ClinicalTrials.gov for clinical trials. Filter by condition, intervention, status, and phase. Returns trial summaries with NCT IDs, status, sponsors, and enrollment info.

  • trending_papersread-only
