| Abstract |
Herein, we summarise the results of the most relevant studies presented at the 2017 ASCO Annual Meeting in the field of soft tissue sarcomas (STSs) and gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs). Innovations on the management of localised disease, highlights from the different experiences in the metastatic setting and large studies on rare histologies will be included. Special attention will be paid to results on immunotherapy, antiangiogenics use in histology with limited sensitivity to standard chemotherapy and new compounds. The preliminary results on the impact of the next generation sequencing in the everyday management of STS and GIST patients will be also discussed. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 7. 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 10 September 2017.
All research outputs
#4,505,346
of 22,889,074 outputs
Outputs from BMC Medicine
#2,094
of 3,441 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#79,049
of 316,781 outputs
Outputs of similar age from BMC Medicine
#29
of 51 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,889,074 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 80th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,441 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 43.6. This one is in the 39th percentile – i.e., 39% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
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 316,781 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 75% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 51 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 45th percentile – i.e., 45% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
