What this shows NB's Innovation Score is 39.3/100 (top 39% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for NB?

Each dot is one of NB’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). NB’s own 13.9 claims/patent is ABOVE the 12.9 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where NB's grants concentrate

NB Health Laboratory Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 8 CPC subclasses with 87.5% of grants classified under A61P (Specific Therapeutic Activity OF Chemical Compounds OR Medicinal Preparations). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, NB sits between National Cheng Kung University Hospital and NEC Engineering, Ltd..

NB's three-year grant acceleration

NB Health Laboratory Co., Ltd. shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
