Abstract

Signatures of mutagenesis provide a powerful tool for dissecting the role of somatic mutations in both normal and pathological processes. Significantly, cancer genomes are dominated by mutation signatures distinct from those that accumulate in normal tissues with age, with potentially important translational implications.

Attention Score in Context

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 25 March 2016.
All research outputs
#16,769,630
of 24,666,614 outputs
Outputs from Genome Medicine
#1,398
of 1,518 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#201,484
of 332,432 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Genome Medicine
#33
of 33 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,666,614 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,518 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 27.2. This one is in the 5th percentile – i.e., 5% 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 332,432 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 30th percentile – i.e., 30% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 33 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
