Ranks in the top 56% 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.

“The Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study (MACS) is a longitudinal study that examines the natural and treated history of HIV/AIDS among SMM living with or without HIV in Baltimore, Maryland/ Washington, DC; Chicago, Illinois; Los Angeles, California; and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. A total of 7,352 SMM were enrolled over four time periods: 4,954 in 1984–1985, 668 in 1987–1991, 1,350 in 2001–2003, and 380 in 2011–2019. MACS participants attended semiannual visits that involved an audio-computer-assisted self-interview and a standardized clinic examination.”
