| Abstract |
Tension-type headache (TTH) is the most common form of headache in the general population. Diagnosis of TTH is based merely on clinical features and on careful exclusion of all possible causes of headache. Most of the headaches that present in the context of medical disorders (e.g., hypothyroidism, sleep disorders, and hypertensive crisis) have clinical features overlapping with those of TTH; medical history and specific features of the systemic disorder are usually the clues to establish a correct diagnosis. Some medical disorders may worsen a preexisting TTH, and is also possible the comorbidity of TTH with psychiatric disorders and fibromyalgia. |

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 24 August 2011.
All research outputs
#13,353,865
of 22,651,245 outputs
Outputs from Current Pain and Headache Reports
#484
of 798 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#79,000
of 123,973 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Current Pain and Headache Reports
#3
of 3 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,651,245 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 39th percentile – i.e., 39% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 798 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 8.8. This one is in the 37th percentile – i.e., 37% 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 123,973 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 34th percentile – i.e., 34% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 3 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one.
