| Abstract |
Familial pancreatic cancer (FPC) is defined by families with at least two first-degree relatives with confirmed pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) that do not fulfill the criteria of other inherited tumor syndromes with an increased risk for the development of PDAC, such as hereditary pancreatitis or hereditary breast and ovarian cancer. FPC is mostly autosomal dominant inherited and presents with a heterogeneous phenotype. Although the major gene defect has not yet been identified, some important germline mutations in the BRCA2-, PALB2-, and ATM-genes are causative in some FPC families. |

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 25 August 2013.
All research outputs
#14,597,293
of 25,928,676 outputs
Outputs from International Journal of Colorectal Disease
#886
of 1,951 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#100,829
of 195,471 outputs
Outputs of similar age from International Journal of Colorectal Disease
#5
of 10 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,928,676 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 43rd percentile – i.e., 43% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,951 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.4. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 54% 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 195,471 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 48th percentile – i.e., 48% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 10 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 5 of them.
