| Abstract |
A case of mycetoma caused by the black fungus Madurella grisea in northern Brazil is reported. The lesion was located on the patient's right foot without bone involvement. Clinical samples were collected by opening the fistules with a scalp and the grains removed for microbiological and histopathological analyses. Although mycetoma caused by M. grisea has been previously reported in Brazil, this is the first time that of this fungus has been identify in this particular region of the country. |

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 July 2023.
All research outputs
#7,453,126
of 22,785,242 outputs
Outputs from Mycopathologia
#209
of 1,074 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#36,120
of 140,526 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Mycopathologia
#5
of 12 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,785,242 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,074 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.6. This one is in the 46th percentile – i.e., 46% 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 140,526 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 17th percentile – i.e., 17% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 12 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
