Daily Update Files (02/2020)
----------------------------
Each day, NLM produces update files that include new, revised and deleted
citations. The first Update file to be loaded after loading the complete
set of 2019 MEDLINE/PubMed Baseline files is pubmed20n1016.xml.
Usually, three files per update, e.g.:
* ftp://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/updatefiles/pubmed20n1016_stats.html
* ftp://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/updatefiles/pubmed20n1016.xml.gz
* ftp://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/updatefiles/pubmed20n1016.xml.gz.md5
Currently (02/2020) the HTML contains the date.
