No MCP client? Call it directly: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/pubtator_relation_evidence for the schema, then POST the same URL with its arguments for the data.

The supporting passages behind one specific PubTator 3 relation — every paper whose text the model read the relation from, with the matched sentence, both entities’ mentions, PMID, journal and date. Give the relation type and both entities (ids or plain names); page through the results 10 at a time. Use after pubtator_relations to audit a predicted relation. Sourced from the PubTator 3 search index at NCBI/NLM; the relation itself is machine-extracted, not curated. Keyless.

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`type`	string	yes	Relation type, e.g. “treat”, “associate”, “inhibit”.
`entity1`	string	yes	First entity — PubTator id or plain name, e.g. “@CHEMICAL_Doxorubicin”.
`entity2`	string	yes	Second entity — PubTator id or plain name, e.g. “@DISEASE_Breast_Neoplasms”. Order does not matter.
`page`	number	no	Result page, 1-based (default 1). 10 passages per page.
