Quite a lot of people seem to like those graphs I sometimes make showing the number of papers published about a certain topic in any given year, based on the number of PubMed hits.
But how do I do it? Surely I don't sit there manually searching PubMed for each term, for each year, right? That would mean dozens, maybe hundreds, of manual searches. Well, unfortunately, that is exactly how I've done it in the past. I really am that cool, see.
