Abstract

We would like to thank Tan et al. for their very extensive and thought provoking systematic review and narrative synthesis on the influence of physical activity (PA) and bone strength in children and adolescents(1) . The authors conclude that there is still much to learn about how bone mass and bone structure responds to PA during skeletal growth and development. However, we would like to highlight how our research based on the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) has helped to shed light on some of the issues they discuss, including the contribution of muscle strength to PA effects on bone development, and the importance of PA magnitude/intensity. © 2014 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. 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 15 November 2014.
All research outputs
#14,621,752
of 25,508,813 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Bone & Mineral Research
#3,495
of 4,798 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#131,194
of 276,508 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Bone & Mineral Research
#29
of 55 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,508,813 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 42nd percentile – i.e., 42% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 4,798 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 11.2. This one is in the 26th percentile – i.e., 26% 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 276,508 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 52% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 55 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 45th percentile – i.e., 45% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
