Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 4. 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 12 April 2022.

All research outputs

#6,942,073

of 22,763,032 outputs

Outputs from Cochrane database of systematic reviews

#8,563

of 12,313 outputs

Outputs of similar age

#36,687

of 108,098 outputs

Outputs of similar age from Cochrane database of systematic reviews

#59

of 94 outputs

Altmetric has tracked 22,763,032 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 68th percentile.

So far Altmetric has tracked 12,313 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 30.4. This one is in the 29th percentile – i.e., 29% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.

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 108,098 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 64% of its contemporaries.

We're also able to compare this research output to 94 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 35th percentile – i.e., 35% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
