Abstract

The P239S palladin variant has recently been suggested to play a role in hereditary pancreatic cancer. We estimated the contribution of the P239S variant, and surrounding sequence, to familial and early-onset pancreatic cancer. The P239S germline variant was identified in one of 84 high-risk cases and one of 555 controls. The case reported an elderly relative with pancreas cancer. We conclude that this variant does not appear to account for a significant fraction of hereditary or early-onset pancreas cancer.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

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 02 April 2009.
All research outputs
#7,453,827
of 22,787,797 outputs
Outputs from Human Genetics
#933
of 2,953 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#26,950
of 76,394 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Human Genetics
#7
of 14 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,787,797 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,953 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.2. This one is in the 20th percentile – i.e., 20% 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 76,394 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 15th percentile – i.e., 15% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 14 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.
