Abstract

We retrospectively analyzed the outcomes of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in 7 patients with primary immunodeficiency diseases treated at the National University Hospital, Singapore, over the period from December 1996 to January 2010. The primary immunodeficiency diseases managed were X-linked hyperimmunoglobulin M syndrome (n = 3), severe combined immunodeficiency (n = 1), leukocyte adhesion deficiency type 1 (n = 1), chronic granulomatous disease (n = 1), and Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (n = 1). The age of the patients ranged from 5 months to 17 years. Conditioning regimen depended on the type of immunodeficiency, whereas supportive treatment was tailored for differing pretransplant conditions. Eight stem cell transplantations were performed for 7 patients. Donors were HLA-matched sibling donors for 2 patients and unrelated donors for the rest. At the median follow-up of 8.6 years (range 2.2-15.0 years) as of December 2011, 6 patients were alive and cured of their primary diseases.

Attention Score in Context

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 27 December 2012.
All research outputs
#16,047,334
of 25,374,647 outputs
Outputs from World Allergy Organization Journal
#671
of 891 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#102,878
of 169,061 outputs
Outputs of similar age from World Allergy Organization Journal
#8
of 20 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,647 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 34th percentile – i.e., 34% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 891 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 10.2. This one is in the 23rd percentile – i.e., 23% 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 169,061 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 36th percentile – i.e., 36% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 20 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 50% of its contemporaries.
