Growth in the Biomedical Literature, 1986–2005 Orange circles show the number of new articles indexed in MEDLINE with a publication date in each year. Blue squares show the total number of articles indexed at the end of each year. The light lines show exponential curves fitted to each series, and the corresponding formulae show growth rates and goodness of fit measures for both curves.

Some Levels of Linguistic Analysis The gene/protein layer contains LocusLink IDs. The ontology layer contains MeSH concepts. POS is part of speech. NN is a singular noun, IN is a preposition, VBZ is a third-person singular present-tense verb, JJ is an adjective, and CC is a coordinating conjunction. Adapted from Nakov et al. (2005).
