Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 10. 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 29 January 2023.
All research outputs
#3,009,134
of 23,223,705 outputs
Outputs from Cochrane database of systematic reviews
#5,722
of 12,398 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#12,159
of 100,208 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Cochrane database of systematic reviews
#31
of 82 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,223,705 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 86th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 12,398 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 32.7. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 53% 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 100,208 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 87% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 82 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 60% of its contemporaries.
