The EN-TEx resource of multi-tissue personal epigenomes & variant-impact models is a dataset published in Cell (2023). On theSindex it has a DataRank of 1.4, placing it in the top 15% of the data-sharing corpus. It has been cited 82 times, with 62 citing works in its 1-hop citation network. Its calibrated FAIR score is 58/100.
Ranks in the top 15% for downstream scientific impact
DataRank reads this dataset's downstream impact straight off the citation graph — no black box, no proprietary weighting. How is this computed?
FAIR checklist signals are shown for context only and do not affect DataRank scoring.
Full FAIR picture · advisory
The headline score is computed from the scored criteria — the fact-shaped checks (a repository, an accession, a licence) that two independent models agree on. The advisory criteria below are real FAIR guidance but rest on judgment calls that models read differently, so they inform without moving the number.
“The data, analysis and software tools from the project are all open access, with everything being directly available from the EN-TEx portal (entex.encodeproject.org)”— not found in the paper; verdict downgraded
The paper provides a URL to the EN-TEx portal but no persistent identifier string from a standard scheme. [downgraded to 'no' — no verifiable quote from the paper] [majority verdict 'no' (3/5 passes agreed)]
