On This Figure
Glutathione is a naturally occurring antioxidant studied across most of biology, so this figure describes a whole field rather than one product.
Publication history
How much work has been indexed each year, from Europe PMC. Momentum is measured over a trailing twelve months rather than calendar years, so a partial current year never reads as a decline.
Publications per year. The final bar is the current year, still in progress.
