Abstract |
Given limitations in preoperative diagnostics, thyroid lobectomy followed by completion thyroidectomy (CT) for differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) may be required. It is unclear whether resection quality by CT differs from that by total thyroidectomy (TT). Additional surgeon or patient factors may also influence the "completeness" of resection. This study evaluated how CT and surgeon volume influence the adequacy of resection as measured by radioactive iodine (RAI) remnant uptake. |

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 02 January 2014.
All research outputs
#18,359,382
of 22,738,543 outputs
Outputs from Annals of Surgical Oncology
#4,968
of 6,441 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#228,813
of 304,442 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Annals of Surgical Oncology
#45
of 75 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,738,543 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 6,441 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.4. This one is in the 14th percentile – i.e., 14% 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 304,442 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 13th percentile – i.e., 13% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 75 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 20th percentile – i.e., 20% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
