What is Pubmed Impact Factor?
PubMed Impact Factor is a practical Chrome extension designed to enhance research experience on PubMed. It integrates journal impact factors and Journal Citation Reports (JCR) quartile data on PubMed web pages, directly beside the journal titles. Not just a clickable display, the addon also allows filtering of the research results based on these parameters. Through this, researchers can quickly zero in on high-quality, highly relevant research articles, expediting their literature curation process. Furthermore, the extension enables users to expand, collapse, and hide abstract snippets, and implements frequent updates to provide the most recent impact factor databases and improved performance.

Impact factor是2020年的資料,已經過舊,每次到要到JCR重新確認,非常不便!希望impact factor可以每年更新,非常感謝! Thank you very much for making such a convenient extension originally. However, the impact factor data is from 2020 and it's out of date. Each time I have to go to JCR to check again. This is very inconvenient. I really hope it can be updated every year. Thank you so much.
