EPMC Get Citations

Get articles that cite a specific paper from Europe PMC. Given a PubMed ID (PMID), returns a list of citing articles with their titles, authors, journals, publication years, and citation counts. This enables citation network traversal: find what papers cite a given study to track research impact, identify follow-up studies, and discover related work. Essential for systematic reviews and literature mapping. Use PMID from EuropePMC search results.
