How these numbers are counted

PubMed query, searched in titles and abstracts by publication date:

"Phoenix sepsis"[tiab] OR (sepsis[tiab] AND (pediatric[tiab] OR paediatric[tiab] OR child*[tiab]) AND criteria[tiab])

Trials: ClinicalTrials.gov studies first submitted in each 12-month window that match the same terms. A query can miss synonyms or catch unrelated papers, so treat counts as approximate.
