Abstract

We have previously reported that surgical removal of the nasopharyngeal adenoid in young children resulted in increased risk of nasopharyngeal colonization by pneumococci. We now investigated whether adenoidectomy influences the development of serum IgG antibodies to pneumococcal choline-binding protein A (CbpA) and pneumococcal surface protein A (PspA).

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. 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 20 October 2012.
All research outputs
#20,656,820
of 25,374,647 outputs
Outputs from International Journal of Pediatric Otorhinolaryngology
#2,090
of 3,531 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#139,714
of 178,828 outputs
Outputs of similar age from International Journal of Pediatric Otorhinolaryngology
#19
of 42 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,647 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,531 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.1. This one is in the 26th percentile – i.e., 26% 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 178,828 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 9th percentile – i.e., 9% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 42 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
