Step 2 of 9

PubMed Query Builder

Define the PICO question once. The prompt asks the LLM for a sensitive Boolean query with synonym expansion, field tags and a structured breakdown you can audit.

PICO inputs

Leave a block empty if it is open-ended. Use [ tiab ] for title and abstract, [ all area ] for full text, [ none ] when there is no entry.

Population (P)
Intervention (I)
Comparison (C)
Outcome (O)

Then

  1. Copy the generated prompt and paste it into your LLM.
  2. Copy the full PubMed query it returns.
  3. Open PubMed Advanced Search, paste and search.
  4. Export the results (abstract format) for Step 3.
Generated prompt

The prompt is copied to your clipboard, ready to paste into your LLM. Nothing is shown on screen or sent anywhere.
