Procedure:

1. Add a new bookmark to Firefox or IE, for example "PubMed".
2. Highlight the new bookmark, click the right mouse button, and select "Properties".
3. The "Properties" window opens. Copy the following text into the field "URL" ("Location" in Firefox):

   javascript:(function(){var url = location.href;var pmid = url.match(/TermToSearch\=(\d+)/);if( pmid ) w=open('http://www.freemedicalinformation.com/uid_bm.php?amedeo=0&getuid=Create+References&pmidlist=' + pmid[1],'add','width=800,height=700,scrollbars,resizable');})();

4. Now open a single article in PubMed (see example).
5. Click on your new "PubMed" bookmark.
6. In a separate window, the reference appears.
7. Copy and paste it.
8. For each subsequent reference, repeat steps 4 to 7.

B. Amedeo Reference Generator

We have created another small piece of software to generate multiple references. You just need to submit the "PMID numbers" of the articles.

First, collect the PMID numbers of your articles from the PubMed website. To obtain multiple PMID numbers, perform one or more searches and group the articles you need.

Then select "UI List" from the display menu and "Text" from the 'Send to' Menu.



A list of PMID numbers will appear on your screen, for example

17065000
16374211
16504964

We welcome your comments and suggestions.
