Abstract

Dyspnoea is a complex experience of the body and the mind. Whereas the effects of opioids on dyspnoea in advanced disease have been the focus of studies for management of dyspnoea in palliative medicine, the role of oxygen is still unclear. The effects of symptomatic oxygen and opioid treatment on ventilation and palliation of dyspnoea in hypoxic (H) and non-hypoxic (NH) palliative care patients were assessed and compared.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 11. 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 23 August 2023.
All research outputs
#2,845,278
of 22,711,645 outputs
Outputs from Supportive Care in Cancer
#569
of 4,544 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#8,625
of 82,831 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Supportive Care in Cancer
#1
of 7 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,711,645 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 87th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 4,544 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.7. This one has done well, scoring higher than 87% 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 82,831 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 89% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 7 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than all of them
