Best Practices for Writing a Publishable Manuscript
If you have any “Expert Additions” (Studies that were not found by AutoLit, but should be included in screening and subsequent steps), that are indexed on PubMed, you can manually add them to your Nest. There are three ways to add individual references
We recommend using PMID or DOI to ensure accuracy of all bibliographic data.
From the Nest menu, select “Other Sources”
In a separate tab, search for the study copy the DOI or PMID.
Return to Nested Knowledge, insert the PMIDs or DOIs and click on the plus sign.
You can add multiple studies at once by listing the DOIs or PMID separated by commas.
Your reference will appear at the top of the page.
For clinical trials, news articles, and other data sources that lack a PMID, you can enter information manually.
To fill in the study manually, you have fill in the title, at least one author, and a link.
Uploading full texts in bulk can be found under “Add by Full Text”.
This process can take up to 10 minutes, since the software will strip the citation data from the underlying PDF. Upon completion, the records added via full text will be listed under Add Individual References.
