How these numbers were counted

  • PubMed search, run November 1, 2026: teriparatide[tiab] re-run it. Study types add PubMed’s own filters (review, clinical trial, animals not humans).
  • Topics: MeSH major-topic headings counted across up to 400 of the matching records; headings for study set-up (species, sex, age) are left out.
  • Citations: NIH iCite citation counts for the same records.
  • ClinicalTrials.gov search: teriparatide re-run it. Any phase, any status.

This page reports what has been published and what papers say they found, with each source linked. It gives no dosing or usage information, and nothing here is a reason to use Teriparatide outside a laboratory.
