MEDLINE citation tool accuracy: an analysis in two platforms.

Published in: Journal of the Medical Library Association : JMLA (2024)

Zero of the 60 citations examined were 100% correct. Librarians should continue to advise students not to rely solely upon citation generators in these biomedical databases.
