| Abstract |
Although 10-15 % of couples are infertile, little is known of the diverse, underlying pathologies in men and women with poor germ cell production; furthermore, for those with few or no high-quality germ cells, there are few options available for treatment. Thus, over the last decade, concerted efforts have been aimed at developing a biological system to probe the fundamentals of human egg and sperm production via pluripotent stem cell cells with the hopes of informing clinical decisions and ultimately providing alternative methods for therapy which may include developing a source of germ cells ultimately for reproductive purposes. |

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 20 October 2014.
All research outputs
#20,241,019
of 22,768,097 outputs
Outputs from Methods in molecular biology
#9,865
of 13,090 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#264,847
of 305,303 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology
#405
of 597 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,768,097 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13,090 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.3. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% 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 305,303 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 597 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
