Abstract

The UC is a readily available source of blood that may be used for analysis and treatment. Some authors suggest that within the UC blood (UCB) are cells with potential for differentiation down mesenchymal lineages. Isolation and characterization of these cells has been accomplished in some centers. Differentiation of these cells down multiple lineages has been documented. Surface marker expression and gene expression profiling has been performed, and mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) from BM and adipose tissue have been compared with those derived from UCB. The use of UCB-derived stem cells has been investigated in pre-clinical studies. As this field is rapidly advancing, this review summarizes the current state of our knowledge of MSC derived from UCB.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 6. 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 30 August 2022.
All research outputs
#5,447,195
of 25,374,917 outputs
Outputs from Cytotherapy
#419
of 1,551 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#15,927
of 84,545 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Cytotherapy
#4
of 7 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,917 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 75th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,551 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.9. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 65% 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 84,545 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 72% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 7 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 3 of them.
