Hypocretin/Orexin‐ and melanin‐concentrating hormone‐expressing cells form distinct populations in the rodent lateral hypothalamus: Relationship to the neuropeptide Y and agouti gene‐related protein systems

DataRank blends this paper's own citation count with the influence of the papers that cite it. Here, roughly 29% comes from its base citations and 71% from the citation network (23 citing papers contributed measurable signal).

Base score B(p)

log1p(citation_count) — grows sub-linearly, so a paper with 1,000 citations is not 10× a paper with 100.

Network N(p)

Σ over citers of log1p(C_q) ÷ max(outdegree_q, 1). Being cited by a highly-cited paper with few references counts most.

Damping factor d = 0.85

DataRank = (1−d)·B(p) + d·N(p) — the two cards above are each already multiplied by their share.

Self-citations excluded

Citers sharing any OpenAlex author ID with this paper are filtered out before the network sum.

Citers are pulled from OpenAlex sorted by cited_by_count:descand capped per paper, so when the cap binds we keep the highest-signal references and the score is reproducible across reruns.
