| Abstract |
It is now well accepted that the molecule receptor activator of NFκB ligand (RANKL) and osteoprotegerin play key roles in regulating physiological and pathological bone turnover. There are a large number of published reports of circulating RANKL levels in both health and pathology. However, interpretation of these data has been elusive, and the relationship between circulating RANKL and RANKL levels in bone is still not clear. This review explores this subject, documenting the possible origins of circulating RANKL and suggesting additional information that is required before serum RANKL levels can provide useful diagnostic or research information. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. 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 19 May 2014.
All research outputs
#7,408,141
of 22,651,245 outputs
Outputs from Osteoporosis International
#1,333
of 3,595 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#42,837
of 123,300 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Osteoporosis International
#13
of 38 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,651,245 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,595 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 7.6. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 50% 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 123,300 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 38th percentile – i.e., 38% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 38 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 60% of its contemporaries.
