| Abstract |
Determining chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) incidence is challenging for two reasons: cancer registries tend to underreport CLL cases and its diagnostic criteria changed markedly in 2008. No studies have reported incidence rates dealing with both difficulties, and thus CLL/SLL burden in Europe is currently uncertain. Herein, we present accurate CLL/SLL incidence in a Spanish region during 1998-2013, using the population-based Girona Cancer Registry (GCR). We detected an 18.2% under-reporting of CLL/SLL cases when combining records from the GCR and additional information sources (i.e., records of flow cytometry laboratories, hospital registries and hematologists' databases). In addition, age-adjusted rates (using the 2013 European population) changed from 7.57 (95% CI 6.87; 8.30) in 1998-2008 to 6.35 (95% CI 5.51; 7.30) in 2009-2013. Overall, completeness of CLL/SLL data requires accurate diagnosis and reporting of cases. Revision of cancer registry operations to include CLL/SLL-specific surveillance is likely to ensure that the monitoring of this malignancy is entirely accurate. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. 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 27 February 2018.
All research outputs
#15,235,818
of 24,187,394 outputs
Outputs from Cancer Causes & Control
#1,546
of 2,203 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#248,152
of 447,945 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Cancer Causes & Control
#9
of 14 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,187,394 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 34th percentile – i.e., 34% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,203 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 10.3. This one is in the 27th percentile – i.e., 27% 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 447,945 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 41st percentile – i.e., 41% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 14 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
