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.
“Microarray data was uploaded to Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) (Accession number GSE142153 ; https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/query/acc.cgi?acc=GSE142153 ).”
The paper provides a GEO accession (GSE142153), which is a persistent identifier scheme.
