Commentary Regarding the Recent Publication by Tabakow et al., “Functional Regeneration of Supraspinal Connections in a Patient with Transected Spinal Cord following Transplantation of Bulbar Olfactory Ensheathing Cells with Peripheral Nerve Bridging”
The authors provide a commentary on the recently published article in which a person with a chronic stab injury to the spinal cord underwent the transplantation of olfactory bulb derived ensheathing glia in combination with autologous peripheral nerve grafting and long term rehabilitation. The authors respond to the proposition that the resulting recovery was due to axonal regeneration of the corticospinal pathway.
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 29 March 2016.
All research outputs
#15,740,505
of 25,377,790 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Neurotrauma
#1,895
of 2,767 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#146,914
of 279,250 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Neurotrauma
#29
of 46 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,377,790 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 2,767 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 10.2. This one is in the 30th percentile – i.e., 30% 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 279,250 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 46th percentile – i.e., 46% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 46 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.
