| Abstract |
Microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) is a small vessel multisystemic disorder characterised by necrotising small vessel vasculitis without any immune deposits. Kidney and lung are the predominant organs affected in MPA. Skin, gastrointestinal and neurological findings are also described. Isolated pulmonary manifestations are rare. The authors describe a two-year girl who presented with right heart failure and was subsequently diagnosed as ANCA-associated vasculitis. This case report is intended to sensitise pediatricians to consider systemic vasculitis with pulmonary hemorrhage in children with pulmonary hypertension even in the absence of severe pallor. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. 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 05 June 2017.
All research outputs
#15,412,384
of 22,977,819 outputs
Outputs from Indian Journal of Pediatrics
#937
of 1,548 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#198,645
of 317,446 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Indian Journal of Pediatrics
#12
of 27 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,977,819 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 32nd percentile – i.e., 32% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,548 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.1. 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 317,446 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 37th percentile – i.e., 37% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 27 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 55% of its contemporaries.
