Graph shows the growth of scientific literature on second-generation antipsychotic drugs (SGAs; solid line) and total antipsychotic drugs (dashed line) in Singapore. Linear and exponential adjustments were applied for the data on articles regarding SGAs and total antipsychotic drugs. In both cases, there was no compliance with Price's Law.(18)
Linear adjustment (SGAs): y = 0.125x – 2.4 (r2 = 0.0458); exponential adjustment (SGAs): y = 2.4835e0.0102x (r2 = 0.0042); linear adjustment (total antipsychotics): y = 0.2607x – 3.8476 (r2 = 0.1432); exponential adjustment (total antipsychotics): y = 3.8528e0.04x (r2 = 0.1338)
