What it does
- Full PubMed query syntax plus filters (author, journal, MeSH, publication type, language, species, abstract, free full text) and publication/modification/Entrez date ranges
- query is optional. with an author, journal, MeSH, or publication-type filter, the filters alone make the search (a journal's output over a date range, for example)
- Up to 1,000 results per page and offsets up to 9,998, or maxResults: 0 for the match count alone; summaryCount adds briefs for up to 50 hits. A larger page size is served at the cap with a notice naming where to continue
- Reports totalCount, the effectiveQuery PubMed ran, and the appliedFilters
- Rejects blank filter values, impossible dates, and reversed date ranges before PubMed is called
