Controversy exists regarding the feasibility of preventive clinical trials in prodromal Huntington disease (HD). A primary limitation is a lack of outcome measures for persons with the gene mutation who have not yet been diagnosed with HD. Many longitudinal studies of cognitive decline in prodromal HD have not stratified samples based on disease progression, thereby obscuring differences between symptomatic and nonsymptomatic individuals.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. 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 19 October 2013.
All research outputs
#21,431,531
of 34,410,798 outputs
Outputs from Journal of neurology, neurosurgery and psychiatry
#6,398
of 8,758 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#152,333
of 243,137 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of neurology, neurosurgery and psychiatry
#48
of 115 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,410,798 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 37th percentile – i.e., 37% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 8,758 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 15.0. This one is in the 26th percentile – i.e., 26% 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 243,137 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 37th percentile – i.e., 37% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 115 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 57% of its contemporaries.
