A MyNCBI account allows you to customize parts of the interface in PubMed.
Use this section of the guide to have PubMed highlight your search terms. You also have the ability to display the full article abstract in the search results and view up to 200 citations per page.
Once you have entered search terms, you can sort them 3 different ways:
To change how your results are sorted, click on Display Options and choose from the "Sort by" dropdown menu.
Additionally, you can also change the number of items displayed per page and showing the entire abstract (as opposed to just the record summary).
You can customize your search results in PubMed using your MyNCBI account. One particularly useful feature is the ability to highlight your search terms.
Sign in with your MyNCBI account and click on NCBI Site Preferences:
Under the Common Preferences section, you can change the highlighting color.
In the PubMed Preferences section, you can change how many search results are displayed on a single page, as well as what is actually displayed for each result and how the results are sorted.
When viewing an article record, you can see that the journal title and author names are displayed with blue text:
The blue text is hyperlinked to actions in PubMed.
To retrieve all citations from the displayed journal, click the journal's name and the select Search in PubMed from the dropdown menu.
When you click on an author's name, a PubMed search will be run automatically. Keep in mind that the results might include other authors with similar names, or that an author might be credited using other variations of their name.
