description

A plugin that enhances your PubMed search experience by integrating additional sources of information related to journals, institutions, and authors.

Overview
Works automatically on PubMed — no setup required

  • Journal metrics — Impact Factor, Scimago quartile, CAS tier

  • Co-First author visibility

  • Institution rankings 

  • Citation count — Europe PMC's "cited by" count, hover to see the
    source.

  • Relative Citation Ratio (RCR) — NIH iCite's field-normalized influence
    score. 1.0 = NIH median for the same field/year.

  • GEO dataset detection — a dedicated GEO chip appears whenever a
    paper deposits sequencing data. Click to expand a panel listing
    every accession (GSE/GDS/GSM) with one-click copy and open-on-NCBI.
    v1.5 scans the FULL TEXT in PMC (data-availability statements,
    methods, supplementary refs) 

  • Other repository chips — SRA, BioProject, dbGaP, PRIDE, ClinVar,
    PDB, and more, color-coded by repository.

  • Funding intelligence — Hover any author for their full
    active-grant profile from NIH RePORTER, with IC color codes, total
    active funding, and HII (>$5M) flag. 

  • Retraction & erratum detection — flagged inline on every result.

  • Predatory journal flag

  • Self-citation rate — the senior author's prior work as a percentage
    of references. >30% reads as a quality smell.
