| Abstract |
The gamma-amino-butyric acid (GABA) system is a critical mediator of fear extinction process. GABA can induce "phasic" or "tonic" inhibition in neurons through synaptic or extrasynaptic GABAA receptors, respectively. However, role of the thalamic "tonic GABA inhibition" in cognition has not been explored. We addressed this issue in extinction of conditioned fear in mice. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 30 September 2014.
All research outputs
#13,409,212
of 22,756,196 outputs
Outputs from Molecular Brain
#465
of 1,106 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#110,464
of 226,522 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Molecular Brain
#10
of 17 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,756,196 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 39th percentile – i.e., 39% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,106 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 7.1. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 55% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 226,522 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 49th percentile – i.e., 49% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 17 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 41st percentile – i.e., 41% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
