| Abstract |
The patient was a 27-year-old woman who was clinically diagnosed with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). She developed hypercalcemia and hypophosphatemia at age 23. In a detailed examination at age 26, she was diagnosed with primary hyperparathyroidism due to parathyroid adenoma. After undergoing parathyroidectomy, her hypercalcemia and hypophosphatemia rapidly normalized. Subsequent genetic testing revealed mutations of the TSC1 gene. TSC with concomitant parathyroid adenoma is extremely rare; only three cases have been reported worldwide. However, each of these cases was diagnosed clinically. Therefore, our case is the first to be diagnosed with genetic testing. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. 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 16 March 2015.
All research outputs
#19,942,887
of 25,371,288 outputs
Outputs from World Journal of Surgical Oncology
#948
of 2,145 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#191,859
of 276,641 outputs
Outputs of similar age from World Journal of Surgical Oncology
#47
of 116 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,371,288 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 18th percentile – i.e., 18% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,145 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.3. This one is in the 48th percentile – i.e., 48% 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 276,641 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 25th percentile – i.e., 25% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 116 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.
