| Abstract |
Pyomyositis, usually associated with tropical climates, occurs less commonly in temperate regions and is most often caused by Staphylococcus aureus. Several community-acquired methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA) clones have emerged in Queensland since the beginning of the century and they now account for a significant proportion of invasive staphylococcal infection. This study aims to describe trends the in rate of presentation, and the clinical and diagnostic features of pyomyositis, and to determine if trends are attributed to the emergence of CA-MRSA or other factors. |

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 18 December 2014.
All research outputs
#20,656,820
of 25,374,917 outputs
Outputs from The Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal
#5,119
of 6,289 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#266,644
of 359,538 outputs
Outputs of similar age from The Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal
#50
of 66 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,917 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 6,289 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 9.9. This one is in the 9th percentile – i.e., 9% 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 359,538 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 14th percentile – i.e., 14% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 66 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 12th percentile – i.e., 12% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
