| Abstract |
A prospective study was conducted to investigate the possible complications associated with intra- and peri-articular steroid injections. Data are presented on 1147 injections performed on 672 patients out of a total of 688 consecutive patients attending an orthopaedic outpatient setting. It was found to be a safe procedure, with a very low complication rate, if performed while taking adequate precautions. This should encourage general practitioners to offer these injections in their surgeries. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 7. 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 04 February 2018.
All research outputs
#5,331,055
of 25,377,790 outputs
Outputs from British Journal of General Practice
#2,032
of 4,877 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#5,325
of 35,791 outputs
Outputs of similar age from British Journal of General Practice
#3
of 4 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,377,790 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 78th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 4,877 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 19.7. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 58% 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 35,791 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 85% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 4 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one.
