searchPublications_and_MapAffil (1)

• Download

This is a workflow for spatiotemporal analysis of literature indexed in PubMed. The workflow takes an arbitrary Europe PMC search query, calls the Europe PMC Web service searchPublications and extracts the publication year and PubMed ID from the results. The first author affiliation is then geoparsed by the MapAffil Web server to get latitude and longitudes. The coordinates are then concatenated together with the publication year, to produce a single list of publication years, latitudes and ...

Author Publications and Citations by Year ... (1)

• Download

This workflow demonstrates how to connect to and use Europe PMC (http://europepmc.org/RestfulWebService) to count the number of publications and citations per year for one author. Two Web service calls are made. First, we searchPublications to retrieve the bibliographic records for all published work of a single author. Then, we getCitations to extract the year of all articles citing the work of this author. The pubYear fields is extracted from the raw Web service results and fed to an Rshel...

UniProt Protein Protein Network (1)

• Download

This workflow uses the Europe PMC Web Services searchPublications and getDatabaseLinks to reconstruct a protein-protein network based on co-occurence in the scientific literature, arbitrary filtered by a PubMed query, e.g. the word "complex" appearing in the title or abstract. The workflow also looks up the second degree connections, i.e. proteins co-occuring with proteins co-occuring with the protein given as input, but not with this protein itself. The output is a (1) Pajek graph file, a GM...

Author Citation Network (1)

• Download

Map citation/reference network for one author using Europe PMC Web services. This workflow is intended to show the integration of several Web services, XPath XML parsing and use of the igraph package in R. Although the workflow is functional, the information in PubMed is incomplete. This means the results may be a subset of the correct citation graph.

Author to Wordcloud (3)

• Download

This small workflow demonstrates how to connect to and use Europe PMC (http://europepmc.org/RestfulWebService). The workflow searches the publications of an author, extracts the abstracts, counts the word frequencies and plot a wordcloud using the R package of the same name. The Rshell plot_wordcloud also applies text mining operations (transformation to lower case, removing punctuation, stripping whitespace and removing English stopwords) using the R package tm.

Get ENSEMBL cross-references for UniProt IDs (1)

• Download

This small workflow uses the PICR (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/Tools/picr/) WDSL Web Service to look up ENSEMBL (ENSP) cross-references for UniProt IDs. The input is a list of UniProt IDs and the output a corresponding list of ENSEMBL IDs. This instance of the workflow specifically uses the ENSEMBL_HUMAN database and taxonID 9606 (Homo sapiens).

Get article titles from Europe PMC for sin... (2)

• Download

This small workflow demonstrates how to connect to the new (August 2015) version of Europe PMC (http://europepmc.org/RestfulWebService). Changes from previous versions include the addition of a pageSize parameter, allowing the client to request up to 1,000 records at once. If this would still not be sufficient, the offSet paremeter can be used to retrieve data in chunks of 1,000 records and the Flatten List service used to concatenate the results.

Online PubMed author search and geographic... (2)

• Download

This workflow retrieves bibliographic data for a single author using the PMC Europe RESTful Web service and visualizes the geographic distribution of this author's and their co-authors' geographic distribution using the rworldmap package. This is version 2.0 of this workflow, incorporating changes to the Web service allowing up to 1,000 records to be retrieved at once, using the pageSize parameter.
