Abstract |
The accumulation of tryptophan by blood platelets has been investigated in depressive patients and controls using short incubation times and low substrate concentrations. The accumulation of tryptophan by the platelet is significantly greater in the acutely depressed patients than the control group. The results are discussed with reference to tryptophan transport in depression and also to the regulation of plasma levels of tryptophan. |
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 03 March 2015.
All research outputs
#17,730,142
of 22,768,097 outputs
Outputs from Journal of neural transmission Supplementum
#86
of 99 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#25,265
of 26,069 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of neural transmission Supplementum
#2
of 2 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,768,097 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 19th percentile – i.e., 19% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 99 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.1. This one is in the 12th percentile – i.e., 12% 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 26,069 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 2nd percentile – i.e., 2% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 2 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one.
