| - | Be sure that you don't mix pubmed ID searches with full text searches (described below) if for example you search for "10391924 DIABETES" (combining a pubmed and a full text term) our search will simply ignore the full text term and search exclusively for the pubmed id, potentially returning a result you were not interested in. Also, pubmed IDs can contain only numbers 0-9, so any alpha characters will result in an invalid pubmed id. | + | Be sure that you don't mix pubmed ID searches with full text searches (described below) if for example you search for "10391924 DIABETES" (combining a pubmed and a full text term) our search will simply ignore the full text term and search exclusively for the pubmed id, potentially returning a result you were not interested in.
