Verify/Find a Citation
Both Ovid and
PubMed
offer a way to verify or find a full citation if you only have part of
that citation information.
NOTE:
Sometimes pieces of the citation you have may be faulty, so you may need
to try a few times, using different combinations of your information or
putting in less pieces of information.
1. Within Ovid, click on the Find Citation tab.
2. Fill in the pieces of information you have.
Sometimes pieces of the citation you have may be faulty, so you may need
to try a few times, using different combinations of your information or
putting in less pieces of information.
3. Based on the criteria you entered, either a list of citations will come
up or the one citation that matches these pieces of information will come
up.
If you did not have any information come up, try putting in less pieces of
information into the "Find Citation" tool before searching.
To use Single Citation Matcher in PubMed

citation you have may be faulty, so you may need to try a few times, using
different combinations of your information or putting in less pieces of

3. Based on the criteria you entered, either a list of citations will come
up
or the one citation that matches these pieces of information will come up.
