Chromosome abnormalities in humans are strikingly associated with increasing maternal age. Studies in mice implicate loss of chromosome cohesion as an important cause of age-related meiotic errors in the oocyte.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 8. 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 14 April 2017.
All research outputs
#6,070,953
of 31,943,232 outputs
Outputs from Current Biology
#8,249
of 16,562 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#27,079
of 136,566 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Current Biology
#46
of 99 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 31,943,232 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 80th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 16,562 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 64.0. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 50% of its peers.
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 136,566 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 80% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 99 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 52% of its contemporaries.
