Figure 1.
Field-wide comparisons of oncofertility publications to female diseases that have basic and clinical components (endometriosis, fibroids, PCOS), a field of science and medicine that emerged at the same time as oncofertility (palliative care) and a rapidly growing basic science field (nanotechnology). The dots represent the yearly publication number in each discipline, and the lines show the exponential growth fitting with the growth rates shown in the caption. This figure is available in color at Biology of Reproduction online.
