How these numbers are counted

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

("sFlt-1"[tiab] OR PlGF[tiab] OR "placental growth factor"[tiab]) AND (preeclampsia[tiab] OR pre-eclampsia[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.
