Uncitedness (publications):12% - 82% (Larivière & Gingras 2009)

Uncitedness (data): 85% (Peters et al. 2016)

Transfer to practice (medicine):14%, taking 17 years (Balas 1998)

I find it hard to get an overview of academic literature on a research topic using ALST

Academic literature search takes too much time
