Abstract

Ovarian cancer is the deadliest of all gynecologic malignancies. The search for novel treatment modalities to augment traditional chemotherapy and improve quality of life is ongoing. Retinoids, a class of compounds composed of vitamin A, its natural derivatives, and synthetic analogs, have been studied extensively in both the prevention and treatment of gynecologic malignancies. In this article, we reviewed preclinical studies and clinical trials conducted using retinoids in ovarian cancer.

Attention Score in Context

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 31 January 2012.
All research outputs
#17,285,668
of 25,373,627 outputs
Outputs from International Journal of Gynecological Cancer
#1,871
of 3,440 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#96,541
of 136,350 outputs
Outputs of similar age from International Journal of Gynecological Cancer
#6
of 30 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,373,627 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,440 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.7. This one is in the 39th percentile – i.e., 39% 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 136,350 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 18th percentile – i.e., 18% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 30 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 70% of its contemporaries.
