## Map between PubMed Identifiers and Manufacturer Identifiers

### Description

rae230aPMID2PROBE is an R environment that provides mappings between PubMed ids and manufacturer ids.

### Details

Each PubMed id is mapped to a named vector of manufacturer ids. The name represents the PubMed id and the vector contains all manufacturer ids that are represented by that PubMed id. The length of the vector may be one or longer, depending on how many manufacturer ids are mapped to a given PubMed id.

Titles, abstracts, and possibly full texts of articles can be obtained from PubMed by providing a valid PubMed id. The pubmed function of annotate can also be used for the same purpose

Mappings were based on data provided by:

Entrez Gene:http://gopher5/compbio/annotationSourceData/ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/DATA/. Built: Source data downloaded from Entrez Gene on Tue May 17 18:00:57 2005

### Examples

        # Convert the environment to a list
        xx <- as.list(rae230aPMID2PROBE)
        if(length(xx) > 0){
            # The probe ids for the first two elements of XX
            xx[1:2]
            # Get the first one
            xx[[1]]
            if(interactive() && require(annotate)){
                # Gets article information as XML files for a PubMed id
                xmls <- pubmed(names(xx)[1], disp = "data")
                # Views article information using a browser
                pubmed(names(xx)[1], disp = "browser")
            }
        }
