On theSindex it has a DataRank of 0.511, placing it in the top 37.7% of the data-sharing corpus. It has been cited 9 times, with 8 citing works in its 1-hop citation network. Its calibrated FAIR score is 4/100.
Ranks in the top 38% for downstream scientific impact
Linked data & code
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.
No persistent identifier (DOI, handle, accession) is assigned to the study's own data; the only identifiers mentioned are for third-party datasets used.

No specific repository name is given for the study's own data; the data availability statement refers to unnamed online repositories, and the actual data are in the article and supplementary material.

“The datasets presented in this study can be found in online repositories. The names of the repository/repositories and accession number(s) can be found in the article/ Supplementary Material .”
The statement points to the article and supplementary material for repository names, but the study's own data are not in a repository; they are in the article itself, so this is a category 2 statement (data in the article/supplementary). [majority verdict 'partial' (3/5 passes agreed)]
