Dear Bioconductor group:
A few minutes ago, we downloaded and installed the annotation package
for hgu133a to ensure that we have the latest version. Thank you for
providing the PubMed identifiers.
We notice a redundancy for the following example:
> library(annotate)
> library("hgu133a")
> get("216572_at", env=hgu133aPMID)
[1] "95045392" "20530220" "11078474" "7957066"
When we go to PubMed, and type in the above identifiers, we find that
95045392 is the same document as 7957066, and 20530220 is the same
document as 11078474. If we choose the display format as XML, the tag
<ArticleIDList> shows that the first two identifiers above are medline
IDs and the last two are PubMed IDs.
As we would like to further analyze documents in batch mode, could you
kindly look at the possibility of removing this redundancy?
Best regards,
Lynn Young
