Abstract

Patients with obstructive pulmonary disease (asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease-COPD) who smoke illicit drugs are at an increased risk of hospital admissions. We compared hospital readmission rates due to exacerbations of obstructive pulmonary disease amongst patients who were current/ex-illicit drug smokers versus current/ex-tobacco smokers.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 8. 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 04 December 2018.
All research outputs
#4,136,765
of 22,950,943 outputs
Outputs from Lung
#107
of 891 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#41,014
of 230,929 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Lung
#2
of 13 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,950,943 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 81st percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 891 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.5. This one has done well, scoring higher than 88% of its peers.
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 230,929 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 82% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 13 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 92% of its contemporaries.
