Abstract

Failing Fontan continues to be major problem for patients on the univentricular pathway. Failing Fontan is often complicated by chylothorax, plastic bronchitis and protein loosing enteropathy. The role of lymphatic circulation in Fontan circulation is still being researched. Newer imaging modalities give insight into the role of abnormal dilatation and retrograde flow in lymphatic channels post Fontan. Interventional strategies targeting abnormal lymphatic channels, provides an alternative management strategy for patients with failing Fontan. This review focuses on the role of lymphatic system in adaptations to Fontan circulation.

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 15 March 2017.
All research outputs
#17,883,247
of 22,959,818 outputs
Outputs from Pediatric Cardiology
#806
of 1,412 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#222,104
of 306,997 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Pediatric Cardiology
#9
of 21 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,959,818 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 19th percentile – i.e., 19% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,412 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.7. This one is in the 39th percentile – i.e., 39% 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 306,997 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 23rd percentile – i.e., 23% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 21 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 57% of its contemporaries.
