| Abstract |
The myopathy facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy type 1 (FSHD1) is caused by copy number variation of the D4Z4 macrosatellite repeat on chromosome 4. In unaffected individuals the number of 3.3 kb D4Z4 units varies between 8 and 100, whereas 1-10 units are seen in FSHD1 cases. A homologous and heterogenous D4Z4 array can be found on chromosome 10q, but contractions of this array are typically not associated with FSHD. Discriminating between the chromosome 4 and chromosome 10 D4Z4 arrays, as well as determining the array size, requires the use of pulsed-field gel electrophoresis, Southern blotting, and the isolation of high-quality DNA. |

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 21 November 2016.
All research outputs
#18,482,034
of 22,901,818 outputs
Outputs from Methods in molecular biology
#7,927
of 13,133 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#310,530
of 420,462 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology
#691
of 1,074 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,901,818 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13,133 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.4. This one is in the 24th percentile – i.e., 24% 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 420,462 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 1,074 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
