Figure 2

Country-level fractional counts (scale: 0–1) against logarithmic annual citation counts (country-level cardiovascular research output) with color coding representing World Bank country income status. Fractional counts represent the proportion of each country's authors against the total number of authors on each publication. The size of each country's bubble represents the population size of that country. Average citation index (ACI) is calculated by dividing a publication's total citations five years post-publication by five.
