findEuropePmcPassages

Free

Find the passages of one or more open-access full texts (up to 5 articles or preprints) that best match a question, ranked by keyword relevance (BM25). Use it to answer questions whose answer sits in the methods, results, tables or figure legends rather than the abstract. Matching is lexical: phrase the question with the terms the paper would use (gene, drug, assay, cell line, numbers). Fails for articles that are not open access.
