Python toolkit for NCBI metadata (via eutils) and pubmed article text mining -- official primary repo.

Python

AI Summary: Update the Metapub library's ClinVarFetcher to use the new NCBI ClinVar API (VCV format) instead of the deprecated format. This involves changing the `rettype` parameter in the API call and modifying the `ClinVarVariant` class to parse the new XML structure. The fix requires updating the code in `clinvarfetcher.py` and potentially other related files to handle the new XML schema.

Complexity: 4/5
