4. Sorting Results<br />
By default, the <strong>Europe</strong> PMC SOAP <strong>Web</strong> Service search results are sorted by relevance, with the most<br />
relevant result being presented first in the list. SOAP search results can be sorted in two other ways<br />
using the arguments: ‘sort_date:y’ and ‘sort_cited:y’ in the ‘queryString’ parameter of the methods<br />
that follow. Note that these sort arguments are only designed for programmatic use (i.e. in the<br />
<strong>Europe</strong> PMC <strong>Web</strong> <strong>Services</strong>).<br />
Examples:<br />
Sort by the number of citations, most cited being the first result presented:<br />
auth:“Simon Hubbard” sort_cited:y<br />
Sort by date of publication, the most recently published article being the first result given:<br />
auth:“Simon Hubbard” sort_date:y<br />
