| Abstract |
Small bowel functions are more complex than colon functions, and short bowel conditions are associated with increased mortality. Gastrointestinal dysfunction in critically ill patients is common, probably underestimated, and associated with a poor prognosis. However, a validated definition of acute intestinal failure is lacking, in absence of a marker to measure it. Consequently, small bowel dysfunction is not clearly integrated into the overall approach used to treat ICU patients. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. 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 14 October 2014.
All research outputs
#13,353,865
of 22,653,392 outputs
Outputs from Intensive Care Medicine
#3,686
of 4,966 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#80,339
of 107,963 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Intensive Care Medicine
#23
of 29 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,653,392 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 39th percentile – i.e., 39% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 4,966 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 26.5. This one is in the 24th percentile – i.e., 24% 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 107,963 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 24th percentile – i.e., 24% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 29 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 20th percentile – i.e., 20% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
