Abstract

Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) is a widely accepted alternative to axillary lymph node dissection in invasive breast cancer. Its role in ductal carcinoma-in-situ (DCIS) is unclear. The purpose of this study was to determine factors associated with the subsequent diagnosis of invasive disease and to determine the role of SLNB when performing a mastectomy for DCIS.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 10. 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 08 November 2019.
All research outputs
#2,937,022
of 22,786,087 outputs
Outputs from Annals of Surgical Oncology
#818
of 6,458 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#6,591
of 68,260 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Annals of Surgical Oncology
#1
of 29 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,786,087 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 86th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 6,458 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.4. This one has done well, scoring higher than 86% 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 68,260 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 89% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 29 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 96% of its contemporaries.
