It represents the ratio of the number of all types of articles on a particular drug in the top 20 journals relative to the number of articles in all (>5,000) biomedical journals covered by Medline over the 5 years since the drug¡¯s introduction. The TJSI can be an indicator of a drug¡¯s potential for sustained use: a higher score increases the probability of continuing success.
