I am looking to download this article: https://www.ajconline.org/article/S0002-9149(84)80171-X/abstract
- I know you can read the first page at sciencedirect.com. Unfortunately, I need the full article.
- I looked at Bypass Paywalls but it doesn’t list the American Journal of Cardiology as a supported site.
Any ideas?

If all else fails, see if you can find their email. Authors are willing to share their work more often than not.
This the order in which you should try to access papers:
- Normal Internet search including quotes to force the title and components like “pdf”
- Organizational/lab pages of the authors. Very many people will put either full papers or preprints on their personal professional pages.
- Preprint services like arXiv. The ones you look at will be determined by subject area. Preprints will usually only differ from the published work in formatting.
- Just email the authors. Most of us are so happy that virtually anyone wants to read the paper we spent months on that we will happily send a copy. Because people are busy you might need to hit them up a couple of times, but most will be more than happy to send you a copy, and most publications specifically carve out to allow authors to do that.
Try sci-hub?
Are you in college, or do you have a friend who is? Often you can sign in through your college’s library for access.
More and more universities cut down on subscriptions because the fees you pay for access are enormous.
sci-hub dot ru has it, just checked.
Thank you!!
sci-hub should have it
There’s a search bar specifically for DOI on annas-archive dot org. I found it immediately using the DOI.
