How these numbers are counted

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

"tranexamic acid"[tiab] AND (arthroplast*[tiab] OR "spine surgery"[tiab] OR "hip fracture"[tiab] OR orthop*[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.
