| Abstract |
The poor survival and recurrence rate in gastric adenocarcinoma highlights the need for cancer gene discovery. Towards this end, we globally assessed the expression of an emerging class of small non-coding RNAs, called PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs). We analysed the transcriptomes of 358 non-malignant stomach tissue and gastric adenocarcinoma samples, and found that nearly half of the expressed piRNAs were overexpressed in tumours. Our gastric piRNA atlas showed that most piRNAs were embedded in protein-coding sequences rather than known piRNA clusters. Furthermore, we identified a three-piRNA signature associated with recurrence-free survival. In this proof-of-principle study, we demonstrate the potential clinical utility of piRNAs in gastric cancer. |

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 20 March 2015.
All research outputs
#15,327,280
of 22,796,179 outputs
Outputs from Gastric Cancer
#312
of 597 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#170,619
of 286,345 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Gastric Cancer
#6
of 11 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,796,179 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 597 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.9. This one is in the 38th percentile – i.e., 38% 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 286,345 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 31st percentile – i.e., 31% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 11 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 36th percentile – i.e., 36% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
