# Send PubMed to your agent
Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
## Fast path
- Download the package from Yavira.
- Extract it into a folder your agent can access.
- Paste one of the prompts below and point your agent at the extracted folder.
## Suggested prompts
### New install

```text
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
```
### Upgrade existing

```text
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
```

## Documentation

### Query Construction

Use MeSH terms for precise searching — controlled vocabulary ensures you find related concepts regardless of wording
Boolean operators must be uppercase: AND, OR, NOT — lowercase is ignored
Phrase searching with quotes: "heart failure" not heart failure — unquoted searches terms separately
Field tags narrow searches: [Title], [Author], [MeSH Terms] — example: aspirin[Title] AND prevention[MeSH]
Truncation with asterisk: therap* finds therapy, therapies, therapeutic

### Essential Filters

Article type matters: Clinical Trial, Systematic Review, Meta-Analysis — filter by study design
Publication date for recent evidence — older studies may be superseded
Free full text filter if access is limited — but don't ignore paywalled high-quality studies
Humans filter excludes animal studies — relevant for clinical questions
Language filter if translation isn't feasible

### Study Hierarchy

Systematic reviews and meta-analyses synthesize multiple studies — start here for established topics
Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are gold standard for interventions — but not all questions are answerable by RCT
Cohort studies for long-term outcomes and rare exposures
Case-control for rare diseases
Case reports are lowest evidence — interesting but not generalizable
Guidelines synthesize evidence into recommendations — check who wrote them and when

### Critical Appraisal

Sample size matters — small studies may show effects that don't replicate
Check confidence intervals, not just p-values — narrow CI with meaningful effect size beats p<0.05
Funding source and conflicts of interest affect interpretation — industry-funded studies favor sponsors
Primary vs secondary outcomes — cherry-picking significant secondary outcomes is common
Intention-to-treat vs per-protocol analysis — ITT is more conservative and realistic

### Common Traps

Abstract conclusions may oversell results — read methods and results sections
Single studies rarely settle questions — look for replication and systematic reviews
Statistical significance isn't clinical significance — 1% improvement may not matter to patients
Retracted papers still appear in searches — check Retraction Watch for controversial papers
Predatory journals publish low-quality research — verify journal reputation
Preprints haven't been peer-reviewed — useful for speed but not vetted

### Search Strategy

PICO framework: Patient/Population, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome — structures clinical questions
Start broad, then narrow with filters — missing relevant papers worse than sorting through extras
Save searches for ongoing monitoring — PubMed can email when new papers match
Related Articles feature finds similar papers — useful after finding one good paper
Citation tracking: who cited this paper? — follow research forward in time

### Evaluating Sources

Impact factor indicates journal prestige, not individual paper quality
First and last authors typically did the work and led the project
Corresponding author handles questions — contact for clarifications
Check author affiliations — institutional reputation matters
Methods section determines if results are trustworthy — results are only as good as methods

### For Specific Questions

Treatment efficacy: RCTs and systematic reviews first
Diagnosis accuracy: sensitivity/specificity studies
Prognosis: cohort studies with long follow-up
Etiology/harm: cohort or case-control studies
Prevention: RCTs when available, cohort otherwise

### Practical Tips

PubMed is free but full text often isn't — check institutional access, Unpaywall, or request from authors
PMID is the unique identifier — use it for precise citations
Export to reference manager (EndNote, Zotero) — manual citation is error-prone
Clinical Queries filter pre-filters for clinical relevance — therapy, diagnosis, prognosis, etiology
Similar Articles and Cited By expand discovery — algorithm finds related work

### Red Flags in Papers

No control group for intervention studies
Conclusions not supported by data presented
Missing or inadequate statistical analysis
Selective reporting of outcomes
Conflicts of interest not disclosed
Extraordinary claims without extraordinary evidence
