How to use PubMed to get the latest research articles?

PubMed provides current research articles primarily via email alerts ("My NCBI") and RSS feeds. Users establish saved searches specifying keywords, MeSH terms, or filters relevant to their topic. These saved searches automatically monitor PubMed's daily updates, delivering new results matching the criteria either to an email inbox or via an RSS reader. Essential conditions include a free My NCBI account and accurately defining the search strategy to balance comprehensiveness with relevance. Email/RSS frequency should be chosen based on update volume needs. Create or refine a search query in PubMed, ensuring it accurately captures the desired literature. Log into your "My NCBI" account and save the search. Configure the alert settings by selecting either email updates or RSS feed generation. Specify the alert frequency (e.g., daily, weekly). Consistently reviewing these alerts ensures researchers, clinicians, and scholars promptly access new findings applicable to evidence-based practice and scientific discovery within their field.
