*The View PubMed Abstract option displays the abstract/s in PubMed. If you wish you could check “Related articles” to know more about the topic that the article you choose discusses.

Do note however that the “Related articles” feature works best after the article is indexed, or has been assigned MeSH terms. If it is not indexed with MeSH, it will display [PubMed - in process]. If it is indexed with MeSH, then it will display [PubMed - indexed for MEDLINE]. For those that are “in process”, do check out after a few days interval. Once the indexing is complete, then the “Related articles” feature will retrieve more relevant articles.
