Special Topic: Metabolic Syndrome> Time Series Graphs
Published July 2011
On the one-year time-series graph, papers increase over the decade at a fairly steady rate, indicating that research in metabolic syndrome is increasing year by year. Citations are higher for older papers, but show a peak in 2005, perhaps spurred by the AHA/NHLBI Scientific Statement written by Grundy et al. and published in Circulation, as well as other critical reviews and diagnostic papers. Citations per paper decline in a linear manner, as is generally expected.
On the five-year time-series graph, the paper increase corresponds to what is shown on the one-year graph. Similarly, the peaks in citations around 2005 can also be seen on the five-year citation graph, but this graph and the cites per paper graph are showing a steady upward trend, which indicates sustainable growth over the years.

General & Additional Information
Currently, we provide graphical representation by papers, cites, and cites/paper in both one- and five-year intervals. The graphs instantly show anomalies and trends: did one year have a higher or lower output than average?
