| Abstract |
Myocardial infarction is the most common cause of cardiac injury in humans and results in acute loss of large numbers of myocardial cells. Unfortunately, the mammalian heart is unable to replenish the cells that are lost following a myocardial infarction and an eventual progression to heart failure can often occur as a result. Regenerative medicine based approaches are actively being developed; however, a complete blueprint on how mammalian hearts can regenerate is still missing. Knowledge gained from studying animal models, such as zebrafish, newt, and neonatal mice, that can naturally regenerate their hearts after injury have provided an understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in heart repair and regeneration. This research offers novel strategies to overcome the limited regenerative response observed in human patients. |

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 28 April 2014.
All research outputs
#18,371,293
of 22,754,104 outputs
Outputs from Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine
#318
of 409 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#229,461
of 307,270 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine
#4
of 8 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,754,104 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 409 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.6. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% 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 307,270 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 13th percentile – i.e., 13% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 8 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.
