How to read these numbers.

This pooled record aggregates the examiner's activity across one art unit. The allowance rate and application counts reflect historical dispositions—applications decided through allowance or abandonment. Aggregate figures describe the past record only and are not predictions about any specific application. Individual art-unit records, where available separately, may show variation within the pooled total.
