  1. We related the total numbers of publications to the population number of high-income (HI), upper-middle (UMI) and lower-middle income (LMI) countries (publications/population-index(P/P Index): number of publications/population in millions). Also, the number of collaborative publications and the percentage of these among the total publications are listed
