SRDR 3. Uploading Article Citations – SHP Methodology and Statistics Support Team

You will enter the citations for your article under the Project / Citations link.

You will now be on the Citations page. There are a couple of ways to add citations. You can add citations one at a time or in bulk if you have the list of citations in a reference manager export file.

3.1. Adding Citations One at a Time

Click on the Create New Citation link. Note, don’t get confused by the the Add Citation link. That link does something else (which we’ll go over in another place).

When you click on the Create New Citation link, a dialogue box opens.

You now have a couple of options:

First, you can manually type the citation information into the fields. We recommend that you use this option only if the articles not not have a Pubmed ID number.

Second, you can enter the Pubmed ID number into the top Accession Number field, and click on the Fetch from Pubmed link.

When you click the Fetch link, SRDR+ will populate the citation fields automatically.

3.2. Adding Many Citations from a File

If you have collected your citations in a reference manager file or a comma delimited spreadsheet file, you can upload many citations at once.

It is important to know which types of files to upload (trying to upload the wrong type of file will not only NOT work, but may import junk into your citation list). So, be sure to look at which types of files you can upload.

Here are the types of files you can upload.

Note that clicking on any one of the file type links listed above will download a template into which you can enter information on your articles. Once you have entered the reference information into the file template, just save and drag and drop the file into the Drop Files Here to Upload box.

Alternatively, if you are using Rayyan QCR or Abstrakr screening tools, you can export the results into one of the above formats and drag and drop the file into the Drop Files Here to Upload box.

If you have a list of Pubmed IDs, you can save the list (one Pubmed ID on each line), save it as a .txt file, and drag and drop that file into the Drop Files Here to Upload box.
