Type 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3s) and enteric glia, an essential structural component of gut innervation, are well-known regulators of intestinal homeostasis. Ibiza et al. (2016) uncover a new link between commensal bacteria, enteric glial cells, and ILC3s that is required for intestinal homeostasis and defense.
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 25 September 2017.
All research outputs
#16,599,928
of 26,184,649 outputs
Outputs from Immunity
#4,447
of 4,917 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#234,399
of 384,419 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Immunity
#65
of 67 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 26,184,649 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 4,917 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 34.0. This one is in the 8th percentile – i.e., 8% 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 384,419 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 36th percentile – i.e., 36% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 67 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
