Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 62. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 15 January 2023.
All research outputs
#601,204
of 23,301,510 outputs
Outputs from Cochrane database of systematic reviews
#1,165
of 12,432 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#15,189
of 430,213 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Cochrane database of systematic reviews
#19
of 158 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,301,510 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 97th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 12,432 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 32.8. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 90% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 430,213 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 96% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 158 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 88% of its contemporaries.
