Abstract

Transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) is a pleiotropic cytokine that plays important roles in immunity and inflammation. Some studies have suggested that polymorphism in the TGFB1 gene is associated with heart disease in the general population. The purpose of the present study was to determine whether common single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in the TGFB1 gene are associated with ischaemic heart disease (IHD) and/or myocardial infarction (MI) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and to investigate the influence of smoking on any association.

Attention Score in Context

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 23 May 2013.
All research outputs
#20,656,820
of 25,374,917 outputs
Outputs from Arthritis Research & Therapy
#2,907
of 3,381 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#136,242
of 174,273 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Arthritis Research & Therapy
#54
of 67 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,917 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,381 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 9.2. This one is in the 7th percentile – i.e., 7% 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 174,273 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 9th percentile – i.e., 9% 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 7th percentile – i.e., 7% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
