description: In systematic reviews, we often want to obtain lists of references from across studies: forward citation chasing looks for all records citing one or more articles of known relevance; backward ciation chasing looks for all records referenced in one or more articles. This package contains functions to automate the process of forward and backward citation chasing by making use of the Lens.org API. An input article list can be used to return a list of all referenced records, and/or all citing records in the Lens.org database (consisting of PubMed, PubMed Central, CrossRef, Microsoft Academic Graph and CORE; 'https://www.lens.org').
