| Abstract |
Maternal subclinical hypothyroidism is associated with a number of adverse outcomes in pregnancy. The Endocrine Society's recent consensus guidelines have recommended treatment with T(4) for this condition in pregnancy. The single nucleotide polymorphism rs4704397 in the phosphodiesterase 8B (PDE8B) gene has been found to be associated with altered serum TSH concentrations in the general population. We aimed to assess whether genetic variation in TSH due to the rs4704397 genotype affects the number of individuals classified as having subclinical hypothyroidism in pregnancy. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 7. 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 24 July 2018.
All research outputs
#5,423,737
of 25,377,790 outputs
Outputs from JCEM
#4,139
of 15,434 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#20,901
of 106,549 outputs
Outputs of similar age from JCEM
#31
of 98 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,377,790 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 78th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 15,434 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 14.6. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 73% of its peers.
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 106,549 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 80% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 98 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 68% of its contemporaries.
