Are There Apis Supplied By Web Of Knowledge

Question

[xiaoronglv]

dear guys,

As a developer, we can use open platform from twitter, Facebook, and github. We can also use eutility of PubMed. Does Web of Knowledge supply some APIs for developer?

title:The ubiquitin-proteasome system and the autophagic-lysosomal system in Alzheimer disease. doi: 10.1101/cshperspect.a006361.

If you have one paper, how to acquire the information that which paper cite it?

Thanks a lot !

I'm not sure if that has changed recently, but the last time I've checked WoK's API was limited to fields such as article title, authors, source data, author supplied keywords (see: http://wokinfo.com/products_tools/products/related/webservices/ ). You can try to query Google Scholar, although I'm not sure how to do that programmatically - there's no API (on the other hand a software such as Publish or Perish exists and provides the citation metrics automatically).

EDIT: To make things clear: there are probably several automated and free ways (other than WoK and GS) of obtaining citations for some papers. WoK and GS are probably the most complete databases.

as u said, WOS only return five fields( Authors,Article Title,Source,Keywords,UT ). The wos is so mean. ^_^

You'll probably be interested in the answers to this question: http://www.biostars.org/post/show/4266/importing-a-large-number-of-references-from-text/

Short answer - you can do this with Pubmed, or with Scopus, if your institution has access.

Maybe I got the question wrong, but did the original poster asked about references in the paper or its citations (manuscripts that cite the paper)?

[xiaoronglv]

hi, thanks for your answer, but it's not the right answer. I really need some api . If I get one DOI, I could fetch the information that which paper cite it .

[Chris Miller]

Pubmed appears to contain information on papers that cite each other: http://plindenbaum.blogspot.com/2011/06/pubmed-sorting-articles-on-number-of.html. I'm fairly sure that there's a way to do it with the pubmed API if you dig a little

I found a doc from WOS，We can use ARM to acquire the following information：

• Article Match Retrieval Service allows a real-time lookup of bibliographic metadata such as DOI, author, source title, etc., against the Web of Science database (using the institution's subscription entitlements)

• If a match is found, the service will return:

– Times Cited information

– Link to the Full Record

– Link to Related Records

– Link to Citing Articles page

– Link to Journal Citation Reports 5-year Impact Factor trend graph
