The study draws on metadata from more than five million scientific publications spanning 2000-2024 across 27 fields.
Notes on verification
Directly matches the paper's abstract in both preprint (arXiv) and peer-reviewed Scientific Reports version, corroborated across multiple independent postings. Not an independent verification of the underlying dataset count, but the descriptive claim about the study's scope is well-corroborated.
