Spatial2GWAS: a database for linking spatial transcriptomic regions with GWAS traits is a dataset published in Nucleic Acids Research (2025). On theSindex it has a DataRank of 0.181, placing it in the top 66.3% of the data-sharing corpus. It has been cited 2 times, with 2 citing works in its 1-hop citation network. Its calibrated FAIR score is 58/100.
Ranks in the top 66% 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.
“https://zenodo.org/records/16880800”
The paper provides a web address (URL) to a Zenodo record, which is not a DOI, Handle, ARK, or repository accession from the accepted PID scheme list.
