Clicking a row in the chart also initiates a strict MeSH lookup on the PICO element; not all extracted PICOs will correspond to MeSHs, but expect approximately half of lookups to succeed. In the event of a failed lookup, MeSH and Google search linkouts are offered. | Clicking a row in the chart also initiates a strict MeSH lookup on the PICO element; not all extracted PICOs will correspond to MeSHs, but expect approximately half of lookups to succeed.

Explore the frequency of word combinations (n-grams) from abstracts or indexed descriptors (MeSH and/or journal keywords). While n-grams are presented in order of occurence in abstract text, descriptors are inherently unordered. Clicking a row shows unique references containing the combination. | Explore the frequency of word combinations (n-grams) from abstracts or indexed descriptors (MeSH and/or journal keywords).
