Abstract

Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) is a monophasic, inflammatory, immune-mediated disorder of the central nervous system. It is particularly difficult to distinguish between ADEM and an initial attack of multiple sclerosis (MS) clinically and based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or cerebrospinal fluid. ADEM is quite rare after malaria infection. Our patient, although diagnosed provisionally of ADEM after mixed malaria infection, had neuroimaging closely simulating MS.

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 05 April 2016.
All research outputs
#8,262,445
of 25,374,917 outputs
Outputs from The Neurologist
#107
of 435 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#46,500
of 136,086 outputs
Outputs of similar age from The Neurologist
#2
of 6 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,917 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 66th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 435 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.4. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 74% 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 136,086 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 64% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 6 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 4 of them.
