ESummary: Retrieves document summaries from a list of primary IDs or from the user''s environment.
EFetch: Retrieves records in the requested format from a list of one or more primary IDs or from the user''s environment.
ELink: Checks for the existence of an external or Related Articles link from a list of one or more primary IDs. Retrieves primary IDs and relevancy scores for links to Entrez databases or Related Articles; creates a hyperlink to the primary LinkOut provider for a specific ID and database, or lists LinkOut URLs and Attributes for multiple IDs.
