To be clear, the problem is not the tool (Citation Chaser or Lens.org, where Citation Chaser gets its metadata from). The problem is the publishers that are withholding and preventing the abstracts from being openly available.
And the impact in this case, is on screening at the title-abstract level

Here's a scary example. Run the following in OpenAlex API where publisher is Elsevier AND has abstract AND excludes open access papers. api.openalex.org/works?filter...
You get ZERO! If you include OA you get about 20%+ . This figure was >75% when Bianca was doing her analysis in late 2024! (6)
