This is a very nice extension. I've also found another extension that's similar, and you're welcome to use it https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/paperguard/ofpfjhecniaokgmlbjoenomjlpkllceh

It didn't work at all. Decent idea, although could just use a separate tab for that, too.

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

PubMed Genius does not require any sensitive permissions.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Chrome extension may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Chrome extension reputation on Chrome Web Store, the amount of time the Chrome extension has been around, and other signals about the Chrome extension. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Chrome extension.

PubMed Genius has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
