Re^3: Download references list in pdf format with script

The OP seemed to think that his references would find a direct match; I said I wasn't convinced of this assumption. It would probably be more useful to convey your knowledge of paywalls, etc. to the OP rather than to me.

I just wrote some code based on the information provided. :-)

And a pretty decent start for him indeed. Unfortunately all of my experience dealing with papers behind paywalls is from hand searching, and having to go in to work to dl them. Some of them don't work when you're VPN'd into the network that has a license. There's enough information in all the refs to find them, and with any luck the OP is running inside a university or someplace that has a license and can constrain the search to PubMed or a similar archive.
