Hi, my method of choice for importing papers from Pubmed is to use the Medline websearch in Jabref. You then need the PMID that Pubmed lists for each paper after the keywords. If you save the pdfs such that their file name is the Bibtexkey of Jabref, the pdf can be linked to the Jabref entry easily by a click on the 'Auto' button next to the file field (given that file locations match).

Bibtex works nicely with Latex. When I have to write in word, I use http://sydney.edu.au/engineering/it/~tapted/bib2endnote.html to convert a bibtex-library with the references for the manuscript into an Endnote-library. Good luck!
