# PubMed Database
Use this skill when a task needs biomedical literature from PubMed rather than
general web search.
## When to Use
- Searching MEDLINE or life-sciences literature.
- Building PubMed queries with MeSH terms, field tags, dates, or article types.
- Looking up PMIDs, abstracts, publication metadata, or related citations.
- Running systematic-review search passes that need repeatable search strings.
- Using NCBI E-utilities directly from Python, shell, or another HTTP client.
## Query Construction
