`extract_pdf`Extract a PDF to clean Markdown/LaTeX text via MinerU (great for papers behind no open-access full text — give the user's PDF and get readable text back).

Each hit lists which `sources` found it and an `ids` map ({source: id}) you can pass to get_paper / read_paper / the citation tools. Prefer this over search_papers for a broad lookup.

`search_medical`Evidence-graded MEDICAL literature search (PubMed + Europe PMC). Unlike search_all (generic, ranks high-cited reviews/guidelines above trials), this filters by research type via PubMed Publication-Type tags and re-ranks by the evidence pyramid (meta-analysis / systematic review > RCT > cohort > ...), so the actual clinical trials surface first. Open-access full text is pulled from Europe PMC by PMID. `query` should be English keyword/boolean text (PubMed maps it); do natural-language/multilingual understanding upstream. Returns hits with pmid/doi/study_type/evidence_level/citations/abstract and, when open-access, fulltext.	Evidence-graded MEDICAL literature search (PubMed + Europe PMC).
