| Abstract |
Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a rare cutaneous malignancy with a high rate of nodal metastasis. Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) is used in MCC and other cancers to identify regional node micrometastases in patients with clinically negative nodes; however, whether SLN status is associated with recurrence or prognosis in MCC is unclear. |

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 02 April 2014.
All research outputs
#15,298,293
of 22,751,628 outputs
Outputs from International Journal of Clinical Oncology
#389
of 908 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#133,012
of 226,111 outputs
Outputs of similar age from International Journal of Clinical Oncology
#6
of 10 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,751,628 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 908 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.7. This one is in the 49th percentile – i.e., 49% 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 226,111 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 31st percentile – i.e., 31% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 10 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 4 of them.
