MADET: a Manually Curated Knowledge Base for Microbiomic Effects on Efficacy and Toxicity of Anticancer Treatments is a dataset published in Microbiology Spectrum (2022). On theSindex it has a DataRank of 0.369, placing it in the top 48.5% of the data-sharing corpus. It has been cited 4 times, with 3 citing works in its 1-hop citation network. Its calibrated FAIR score is 46/100.
Ranks in the top 49% 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.

“To collect the state-of-the-art scientific reports on pharmacomicrobiomics of anticancer drugs, we searched the literature using the keywords “microbiome” and “cancer treatment” (e.g., 5-FU, anti-PD-1 or radiotherapy, etc.) on PubMed and extracted 26 published papers involving how the composition of microbiota is associated with the efficacy and toxicity of anticancer drugs.”
