| Abstract |
Surgery is a key modality in the treatment of breast cancer. The patient-physician interaction is a key determinant of a range of outcomes, but there is little work examining the surgeon-breast cancer patient interaction. We analyzed data from 240 women with a new breast cancer diagnosis to better understand this interaction and to delineate the patient, surgeon, and surgeon-patient interaction-level characteristics affecting this interaction. |

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 27 April 2006.
All research outputs
#15,233,109
of 22,649,029 outputs
Outputs from Annals of Surgical Oncology
#4,348
of 6,416 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#58,404
of 66,380 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Annals of Surgical Oncology
#22
of 23 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,649,029 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 6,416 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 25th percentile – i.e., 25% 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 66,380 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 6th percentile – i.e., 6% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 23 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 4th percentile – i.e., 4% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
