what prompt to give so that i get all important diagram to draw in my exam from original reference articles

Here's a prompt you can use to extract all important diagrams to draw from reference articles or textbooks for exam preparation:

Prompt Template:
You are an expert medical/scientific educator. Given the following topic or article content, identify and list ALL diagrams, figures, flowcharts, tables, and schematic illustrations that are commonly asked in exams or are important for understanding the subject.

For each diagram, provide:
1. **Name of the diagram** (e.g., "Lac operon model", "Cardiac action potential curve")
2. **What it shows** (brief 1-2 line description)
3. **Key labeled components** to include when drawing
4. **Why it is exam-important** (concept it tests)
5. **Step-by-step drawing instructions** (how to recreate it from scratch)

Topic / Article: [PASTE YOUR TOPIC, ARTICLE TITLE, OR TEXT HERE]

Focus on:
- Pathophysiology diagrams
- Mechanism of action flowcharts
- Anatomical cross-sections or labeled structures
- Graphs and curves (dose-response, pressure-volume, etc.)
- Classification trees or decision flowcharts
- Cycle diagrams (e.g., cell cycle, Krebs cycle)

Prioritize diagrams that appear in standard reference textbooks and are frequently asked in [MBBS / USMLE / NEET PG / MD exams - specify your exam].

Tips to sharpen results:
  • Replace [PASTE YOUR TOPIC...] with the actual article abstract, chapter name, or topic (e.g., "Cardiac Tamponade" or "Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System").
  • Specify your exam type so the AI calibrates importance correctly (USMLE, NEET PG, PLAB, FMGE, etc.).
  • If you have a PDF or article, paste the abstract or key sections directly into the prompt.
  • Add: "Cross-reference with Harrison's / Robbins / Guyton" if you want standard textbook alignment.
  • Add: "Flag diagrams that are frequently modified/MCQ-tricky" for high-yield exam prep.

Bonus - Follow-up prompt after getting the list:
Now take diagram #[X] from the list above and give me a detailed, exam-ready drawing guide with all labels, arrows, color-coding suggestions, and common examiner mistakes to avoid.
This workflow helps you go from a broad topic all the way down to a hand-drawn, exam-ready figure systematically.

what prompt to give so that i get all important diagram to draw in my exam Provide diagrams from original source that is its article from where it is printed in textbook

Here is the prompt you can use to get exam-important diagrams traced back to their original source articles (the papers from which textbooks reproduced them):

Master Prompt

You are a medical/scientific research librarian and exam coach.

For the topic: [TOPIC NAME - e.g., "Renin-Angiotensin System" / "Cell Cycle" / "Cardiac Action Potential"]

Do the following:

1. LIST all important diagrams/figures/flowcharts/graphs that appear in standard 
   textbooks (Harrison's, Robbins, Guyton, Gray's, Ganong, Sadler, etc.) for this topic.

2. For EACH diagram, trace it back to its ORIGINAL SOURCE:
   - Original research article or review paper (Author, Year, Journal)
   - PubMed ID (PMID) if available
   - DOI link if available
   - Figure number in the original paper (e.g., "Figure 3 in Smith et al., 2004")
   - Which textbook reproduced it and in which chapter/edition

3. For each diagram provide:
   - Diagram name
   - What it illustrates
   - All labeled components to draw
   - Any data/values on axes (for graphs)
   - Step-by-step drawing guide for exam

4. Flag:
   - Which diagrams are MOST frequently asked in [your exam: USMLE / NEET PG / MBBS / MD]
   - Which have been modified between the original article and textbook version
   - Any values or labels that differ between sources

Topic: [PASTE TOPIC HERE]
Exam: [YOUR EXAM TYPE]
Textbook reference: [e.g., Robbins 10th edition / Harrison's 21st edition]

Example - Filled In

Topic: Glomerular filtration barrier
Exam: USMLE Step 1
Textbook reference: Robbins Basic Pathology 10th edition

List all diagrams from this topic. For each, find the original journal article 
it was sourced from (PMID, DOI, author, year). Show me Figure number in 
original paper. Then give me a step-by-step drawing guide with all labels.

Follow-Up Prompt (to go deeper on one diagram)

Take diagram #[X] above.

Show me:
1. The exact figure from the original paper [Author, Year, Journal, Figure No.]
2. How the textbook version differs from the original (added labels, simplified, redrawn)
3. A precise drawing guide recreating the ORIGINAL version
4. What examiners test from this specific figure
5. PubMed search string I can use to find this paper myself

PubMed Search Prompt (use directly on PubMed or here)

Search PubMed for the original article containing the [DIAGRAM NAME] 
diagram for [TOPIC]. 

Give me:
- PMID
- Full citation (APA format)
- Which figure number contains the diagram
- Journal name and impact factor
- Whether full text is freely available (PMC link)

Pro Tips

TipWhat to do
Specify editionTextbooks update figures between editions - always name the edition
Check figure creditsMost textbook figures have a small citation below - search that author + year on PubMed
Use "Adapted from"Search inside the textbook for "Adapted from" or "Reproduced from" near each figure
PMC imagesGo to PubMed Central and search the original paper - figures are free to view
Google ScholarSearch: "diagram name" filetype:pdf site:pubmed to find open-access originals

This approach lets you see the original scientific data behind every textbook diagram, which is often higher quality, more detailed, and gives you the deeper understanding examiners reward in written/viva exams.
