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 06 September 2021.

All research outputs

#2,255,200

of 22,701,287 outputs

Outputs from Cochrane database of systematic reviews

#4,806

of 12,310 outputs

Outputs of similar age

#7,305

of 154,409 outputs

Outputs of similar age from Cochrane database of systematic reviews

#12

of 57 outputs

Altmetric has tracked 22,701,287 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 90th percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.

So far Altmetric has tracked 12,310 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 30.3. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 60% 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 154,409 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 95% of its contemporaries.

We're also able to compare this research output to 57 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 77% of its contemporaries.
