Abstract

Ceftriaxone is an effective prophylactic antibiotic. However, there is no consensus about whether ceftriaxone should be used as a first-line antibiotic for the prevention of incisional surgical site infection (SSI). Its role in preventing urinary tract infection (UTI) and pneumonia also is controversial.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 4. 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 29 October 2018.
All research outputs
#6,942,562
of 22,764,165 outputs
Outputs from World Journal of Surgery
#1,325
of 4,222 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#35,111
of 110,628 outputs
Outputs of similar age from World Journal of Surgery
#8
of 24 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,764,165 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 68th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 4,222 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.6. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 67% 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 110,628 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 67% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 24 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 66% of its contemporaries.
