The next phases of the Migrante Project: Study protocol to expand an observatory of migrant health on the Mexico—U.S. border is a dataset published in Frontiers in Public Health (2023). On theSindex it has a DataRank of 0.369, placing it in the top 48.6% of the data-sharing corpus. It has been cited 6 times, with 3 citing works in its 1-hop citation network. Its calibrated FAIR score is 21/100.
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.
No persistent identifier for the dataset is given; the article DOI is not for the dataset, and no repository accession or other PID is provided.
